After dinner, the boundless desert was enveloped in the cool night.
Only the bonfire in the middle flickered, bringing warmth and light.
Suddenly, a little girl walked over shyly.
She carefully cradled her hands in front of her chest.
There was a bouquet of flowers there!
A cluster of small white flowers blooming in the sand, delicate and tender.
She walked straight up to Yan Ning.
Her small face was flushed red by the firelight, and her voice, though soft, was clear:
"Sister, this is for you. These are my favorite flowers, and there's only one bouquet. Grandma said it represents all the blessings of the desert."
She paused, then said very seriously:
"I think you're the prettiest, so I wanted to give this to you."
In an instant, everything around fell silent.
Yan Ning was completely stunned.
She gently took the bouquet of flowers, as if afraid of breaking it.
"My God...this is so precious..."
She bent down and gently sniffed the flower. "Thank you, I love it so much!"
Upon seeing this, those around them immediately began showering him with compliments.
Wow! Flowers! There are flowers in the desert!
"The little girl gave this only flower to Yan Ning! This sentiment is so precious!"
"Yan Ning, take this! This flower suits you perfectly; both of you are so resilient and beautiful!"
"Yes, only the most beautiful and kindest people deserve this blessing!"
"Ningning is so lovable, even the desert wants to send her flowers!"
Sun Wuji crossed his arms and glanced at the bouquet of flowers in Yan Ning's arms.
She glanced at Xie Huaiye standing next to her and grinned.
"Wow! Sister Ning, you've got something amazing! It's not just a unique blessing from the desert!"
He deliberately drew out his words, his eyes darting back and forth between Xie Huaiye and Yan Ning:
"I'm afraid you've accepted even this generous gift from our Young Master Xie?"
"Sun Wuji! What nonsense are you spouting!"
Yan Ning's face instantly turned bright red, and she was so embarrassed that she almost buried her face in the flowers.
My first instinct was to throw the bouquet at him, but I couldn't bring myself to do it, so I just stomped my feet.
"If you keep spouting nonsense, believe me, I'll turn this desert's blessing into a curse upon you!"
Xie Huaiye didn't speak, but simply raised an eyebrow and glanced at Sun Wuji.
The smile on his lips made Sun Wuji even more excited.
"Wow! Young Master Xie, look at her! She's so fierce!"
Sun Wuji feigned fear, took a step back, and shouted at the people around him:
"Everyone, please be the judge! They accepted the gifts and blessings and then turned their backs on me! My congratulations were clearly from the bottom of my heart!"
The people around him burst into good-natured laughter.
[Haha, Brother Sun, you really know how to make fun of people!]
[Sun Wuji, my internet mouthpiece! He said everything I wanted to say!]
[Ningning is shy! Young Master Xie is protecting her! Brother Sun, you've done a great service!]
[I could watch a hundred episodes of these three interacting! It's so entertaining!]
Yan Ning was both ashamed and anxious, glaring at Sun Wuji:
"From the bottom of my heart? I think you're just asking for trouble! If you're so capable, go find a bunch of flowers in the desert!"
"I don't have that ability."
Sun Wuji shrugged, his skin thick as ice. "The blessing of this desert is obviously based on appearance. It's not willing to come out to a rough guy like me."
"Right, Young Master Xie?"
He didn't forget to throw the conversation to Xie Huaiye.
Xie Huaiye spoke slowly and deliberately:
"Yes, it has good taste; it only recognizes the most good-looking people."
Yan Ning's face turned even redder.
She secretly pinched Xie Huaiye from behind, telling him not to cause trouble.
Sun Wuji immediately clutched his heart, his expression exaggerated:
"Fine! I asked the wrong question! I shouldn't be in this circle; I should be under the car!"
"You two are ganging up on me! I can't dance anymore, I'm so sad!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Everyone laughed even harder, and the atmosphere became extremely lively.
Everyone laughed and joked, then held hands and began to dance around the campfire.
Xie Huaiye took Yan Ning's hand and gently traced the inside of her wrist with his fingertips.
Yan Ning's heart skipped a beat, but she didn't let go.
The firelight gilded them.
They held hands; one was tall and handsome, the other graceful and lively.
He became the most dazzling presence in the industry.
Meanwhile, Su Muyao's smile froze completely.
That bouquet of flowers was like a thorn, piercing her eyes.
On what grounds?
Why should this one flower and all the blessings be given to Yan Ning?
Why is everyone so devoted to her, even Huaiye looks at her with such admiration?
She's the one who should be standing in the middle receiving the praise!
Intense jealousy is like a venomous scorpion in the desert.
It stung her heart fiercely.
...
Night was falling.
The party ended in a warm and enthusiastic atmosphere.
Everyone went back to their rooms.
Yan Ning held the bouquet of flowers carefully.
Just as I reached the door, I was gently pulled by a force.
They turned into a corner deep in the corridor.
"Thank you, Huaiye!"
Yan Ning lowered her voice, flustered and embarrassed, and immediately shielded the flowers in her arms:
"There are cameras! And... don't damage my flowers!"
Xie Huaiye trapped her between himself and the wall.
His gaze, however, lingered on the flowers in her arms, then slowly shifted back to her eyes:
"Of course I know, I'll just take a look at the blessing of the desert."
He leaned closer, his breath warm, "I'll get some of that too."
Yan Ning's heart was pounding like a drum. She pushed him, saying, "Let's go back quickly!"
"It received all the blessings."
Xie Huaiye lowered his voice even further, with a coaxing tone:
"What about me? Can you share some with me?"
