".....You forgot."
"Oh! No, no I didn't....." Pei Ye remembered, that was the morning at the Martial Arts Hall. When he helped the injured girl off the cart, he saw her clutching a small bronze sword in her palm. This sparked an idea in him, which he later shared with the girl while they were previewing the martial arts competition venue.
"That...hasn't arrived yet. Who said it is after the martial arts competition? I said that...it's when my friend arrives."
"Uh...all right." The girl, of course, remembered clearly. She just brought up the topic, and now that her purpose was met, she turned her head and said, "Pei Ye, I also prepared a gift for you."
Pei Ye's heart tightened: "....Ah? What?"
"It's not finished yet." The girl laughed, "You have to deliver mine first, then I'll give you mine."
"..." Pei Ye breathed a sigh of relief.
Light rain beat down on the green leaves and stone tiles, washing the world into a deep silence.
