Chapter 64
Farewell Gift

“These are gifts for King Troy . They were taken from Queen Vera’s imperial palace . ”

The youngster had to put his back into it to heave a huge chest with another guard . Ying took the key and unlocked the chest . The chest was filled with glistening gold items . While there was nothing particularly captivating and of high quality, the gold alone was worth a lot .

“Give Queen Vera our thanks for the kind gesture . We will send a gift back later on,” said Ying, nodding then turning around to organise the sailors for the trip home .

Ying considered the youngster’s mission complete . He was there to deliver gifts . Ying had received the gifts, the youngster, therefore, could head back . However, he didn’t disembark . Instead, his gaze swam around on the s.h.i.+p . Ying turned around when she noticed that there was still a gaze on her back . Seeing the youngster still standing there, she furrowed her eyebrows: “Is there something else?”

Ying suspected he might be trying to sneakily take the four sisters back . Troy wasn’t fond of the youngster in any capacity . You might as well say that he wanted to kill the youngster after learning he sneaked off with the four sisters . That was why her master’s att.i.tude toward the youngster was her att.i.tude toward him . She was wary of the younger .

“Umm… I…”

The youngster stood on the deck in an awkward and embarra.s.sed manner . There was one more thing he had to do . His job wasn’t over yet . His job was to deliver the gifts; however, he hadn’t delivered his personal gift . His gift wasn’t for Troy . It was a personal gift he wanted to give .

Advertis.e.m.e.nt

“Ah, it’s you . ”

As Ying was about to force the youngster off the s.h.i.+p, Nona appeared behind him . She cheerfully stated, “You plan to come with us back to the North for a vacation? You’re very welcome in the North . We can take you around . It’s not safe here, but it’s safe at our place . ”

“Ah, no… Princess Nona, I want to know… umm… umm… umm… Princess Liu Yue…”

“Liu Yue?”

The youngster barely uttered those words . His burning face was about to burn his brain . He lowered his head . It was as if he was at the guillotine . The youngster wanted to see Liu Yue, but the thought of mentioning her name to others always scared him . He didn’t know why he was scared . He was the sisters’ bodyguard . It should’ve been fine for him to be looking for them . His relations.h.i.+p with them wasn’t shabby . It was fair for a friend to say his farewells . For some reason, though, he was afraid of mentioning Liu Yue to others . In fact, he didn’t dare to go anywhere near the topic . All of the other guards would evaluate the four sisters, but he’d never comment . He wasn’t sure why he didn’t . He just didn’t dare to mention her .

“Liu Yue… is tidying up her room…”

Being so pure, Nona didn’t understand what the youngster was thinking, so she tilted her head . She remembered her sister was tidying in her room, so she informed the youngster . However, he couldn’t enter her room . As such, Nona considerately asked, “Do you need me to call her? Did you want to say something to her?”

“Mm…” The youngster nodded . The fact is that he didn’t dare to answer Nona’s question .

“Wait here . ” Nona ran off .

Ying a.s.serted, “You only have three minutes, all right? We’re in a rush, so keep it short . ”

“Understood . ”

A red pair of ears, which stood out when combined with her white cloak, appeared . Liu Yue strolled over to him . His heart began to race . He reached into his pocket and clutched a small container . He wanted to give it to her as an apology for all the things he did but also as a farewell gift . He prepared himself beforehand, and it was time to hand it to her . For some reason… for some reason, the closer she came, the more he wanted to run .

“Why am I scared?” the youngster asked himself .

“What’s he looking for me for?” wondered Liu Yue .

Liu Yue had no clue what he was looking for her for . It was futile for him to try and ask for an audience with her father through her for her father would soon arrive . In essence, there was no need to go through her .

The youngster was obviously nervous . He had his head down the entire time . He didn’t dare to utter a word .

“Is there something important or… . ?” pondered Liu Yue

Liu Yue suddenly recalled lots of things they went through… Boys at school confessed to her before . Most of them confessed in the same manner…

Liu Yue’s mind began to race: “Could he… Could he… No way, no way . We’re not even as close as I am with my cla.s.smates . My cla.s.smates have been at school with me for a long time, while he and I have only known each other for a short month . If I think about it, although chatting with him was quite joyful, we’re not connected in that many ways . Is he going to confess to me now?”

Liu Yue’s first reaction was to find a way to reject him without hurting his feelings . She asked herself, “Am I struggling to find the words now since I was friendly with him? I don’t know how I can answer without hurting his feelings . Do I have any reasons to reject him with? We were quite happy around each other, after all . ”

Liu Yue dimpled: “Is something the matter? Just tell me . We’re friends, aren’t we…? Tell me . ”

If the youngster was forthright, Liu Yue could outright reject him . She understood what friends and love meant . She considered the youngster a nice boy, but he wasn’t what she was looking for; she intended to reject him .

The youngster took out the small container and stuttered, “Umm… Th-Th-This is for you . ”

The small container shook along with him . Liu Yue never expected to receive a gift . Liu Yue took it from him and curiously opened it by the time Ying was about to grab it to inspect it .

Inside was a tiny necklace . It wasn’t an expensive or brand name gem . As a matter of fact, it didn’t even qualify to be considered a gem . It was merely a pretty and small pearl . It wasn’t worth much in a nation that sat the border of the ocean . She could purchase one of Queen Vera’s necklaces with any of her own treasures, but she tightly held it, nonetheless .

“Thanks . ”

Liu Yue gently wore it around her neck and placed the pearl in the centre of her developing chest . A gentle smile blossomed on her lips…
