Chapter 536: Chapter 536: Whoever Does This, Marry Him Chapter 536: Chapter 536: Whoever Does This, Marry Him The two casually released their river lanterns into the river.
A white and a pink lantern wobbled as they floated on the water.
Bai Junjun, with her keen vision, imdiately saw that the white river lantern belonging to Li Wenli bore the words: “World Peace.”
Seeing this, she couldn’t help but be stunned, as her own lantern was inscribed with the sa ssage: “World Peace.”
Li Wenli saw it as well and couldn’t help but pat Bai Junjun on the head.
“Does this count as a eting of minds?”
Bai Junjun’s heart paused slightly, and it took her a while to nod silently: “After all, we co from the sa place, so it’s not strange that we share the sa thoughts.”
World peace, prosperity of the nation, safety of the people, favorable weather, and bountiful harvests.
These are the most simple of wishes, yet they are dreams one also wishes to realize.
Li Wenli sat lazily on the riverbanks, watching the small lanterns sway in the river, and sighed helplessly.
“It’s a pity the people here don’t know.”
“How could one who has not lived in Purgatory understand the sufferings of the world?”
The two sat there for a while, and before long the sky grew completely dark, and the stars ca out. Looking at the star-studded sky, they felt an unprecedented calm.
After a good while, Li Wenli suddenly reached into his bosom and brought out a shimring object to give to Bai Junjun.
“?” Bai Junjun looked down, puzzled.
In Li Wenli’s hand glead a silver hair clasp, simple yet sparking brightly. The clasp was designed to secure a ponytail with nurous diamonds embedded on it.
Bai Junjun recognized these diamonds—they were all picked from the volcano in Fubo City.
There was also another hairpin that could pass through the clasp to secure it.
The hairpin too had just one simple pink diamond on it.
Without any fancy decorations, the tender pink diamond paired with the bright silver pin was very beautiful.
Bai Junjun, looking at the set of jewelry, was sowhat surprised: “When did you buy this?”
“I made it,” Li Wenli said with an easy smile: “This afternoon, on a whim.”
Bai Junjun glanced at the hairpin, sowhat taken aback.
Considering that Fox and Xiao Yu had been lazing in bed earlier and acting mysteriously, they must have been hiding this.
Bai Junjun gripped the hairpin in her hand, her vision blurring for a mont.
It seed her best friend had also discussed this with her before.
Back then, her friend had just moved a heap of materials out of Space, and she herself had just finished refining the Nutrient reagent.
While drinking the energy liquid, her friend lanted, “I really want to fall in love. If soone would give a necklace and invite to a movie, I’d marry him.”
Bai Junjun laughed: “Which romance novel have you borrowed this ti?”
“How did you know?” Her friend was astonished: “I’ve been reading a domineering CEO novel popular over six hundred years ago. Although the plot is outrageous and lodramatic, I have to admit the CEO is so handso! I wish I could et a CEO like that.”
Bai Junjun cut to the heart of it: “I’m afraid what you really want to et isn’t that CEO, but his world, right?”
“Hahaha, right, if I could go to his world, I would definitely move all the wealth of that world including plants and trees into Space, then bring it back to take care of you.”
Bai Junjun didn’t know whether to laugh or cry: “Well then, thank you very much.”
The friend hugged Bai Junjun’s shoulders: “Who else if not my best sister! But honestly, if you et soone romantic enough to give you a necklace, cherish him, because in this damned world, those who still rember they’re human are rare.”
…
Bai Junjun, for no particular reason, rembered her friend’s words, and as she looked down at the hairpin in her hand, her feelings beca complex all at once.
