Today is Jiao Ling's birthday, but because we're on the road, we didn't really celebrate it. Lanlan gave her a woven bag as a gift.
Jiao Ling immediately slung it over her shoulder.
"I like it, I really like it!" Jiao Ling exclaimed excitedly.
Lanlan's eyes curved into a smile as she said, "Chengfeng also helped with this. I'm clumsy and couldn't sew that agate bead properly for a long time, so he ended up helping me with it. That's why I say this gift is from both of us."
Jiao Ling paused, then said, "Alright, I'll have to thank him as well."
She also took out an embroidered box, saying, "You gave your mother a gift, so this is my gift in return."
"It's not even my birthday, why would I need a gift?" Even though Lanlan said this, her face was full of surprise and delight. Which young girl doesn't love getting presents?
Upon opening the box, there was an exquisite set of pearl necklace and earrings. Each pearl was full of sheen and uniformly sized, making it hard to look away.
