Originally he didn't want to say he had prepared her a birthday gift, but after a moment of silence, he still spoke up, "As a commoner, I have prepared a gift, but it's too disrespectful to give it to the Princess, I dare not present it to the Princess."
Su Yuxin didn't actually care whether Tao Mingqing had a gift for her; she was just upset that Tao Mingqing didn't remember her birthday, clearly it was on the same day as his. But now that she knew Tao Mingqing actually remembered, she had nothing to be upset about. Yet, Tao Mingqing suddenly mentioned he had prepared a birthday gift for her, and her eyes immediately lit up.
Eagerly, she asked, "What's the gift?"
"Just a painting by this commoner."
"Quick, show it to me," Su Yuxin said, extremely excited, feeling even her headache wasn't as bad.
Tao Mingqing hesitated a bit but still went to the room to fetch the painting. He hesitated again before handing it to Su Yuxin.
