In legend, light separates the world.

The girl wants to go to the stage from the shadow, but she never has the courage to step up.
VOL.1
In recent days, Astrid feels that someone was following her. But she can’t find the evidence.
For example, when she was in class, she would suddenly felt her hair pulled, and then the teacher would let her answer question.
The monitor who came to collect the homework just said a few vicious words to her, then he slipped on a banana peel and fell over. However, no one ate bananas.
When she passed the newsstand on the street after school, she would see that Lady Gaga on the cover of fashion magazines would suddenly blink her eyes.
Another example is that pigeons pecking at food in the square would suddenly fly up without any influence. Or, when she was doing homework, she found that the English textbook was missed. She looked everywhere only to find that the textbook was on the desktop.
She has a strong feeling that a pair of eyes are looking at her silently.
Until today, she surprisingly find that her speculation is true.
The last lesson this morning is Reading, the favorite lesson for students who like reading books, and also the most hated lesson for students who hate books. Whether you like it or not, the teacher will send his students to the library for free reading. A necessary homework of the class is reading notes.
The reason for reading class is the library of Milo College is the most precious spiritual wealth in the region. There are many ancient books in the library, including medieval constellation interpretation, celestial observation, and even ancient magic. As a student of Milo College, how can Astrid miss it.
Astrid likes quiet places, so she chooses corners seats in the classroom and hides in the corner of the library as usual. She pulled out a book randomly on the shelf with the "Ancient Magic" label. It is a thick, yellowing book.
The preface says: You should know that there are many parallel worlds outside the living space of human beings, which raises Astrid’s interest.
"In general, various worlds do not intersect with each other, but the ’door‘ that connect with each world exists. In certain circumstances, the’ door‘ will open..."
"The world of eudemon is one of the parallel worlds. Sometimes, the image of that world will be projected on the sky of the human world, which is called “mirage”. Then we can have a contact with that world, where there are various kinds of magic eudemon..."
"Occasionally, some eudemon came to our world the ’door’, and they told us more things about their world: there are many kinds of eudemon: high, medium and low. The dragon family is the highest eudemon with powerful magic. The king of the dragon family is the master of the whole family, also the king of the whole eudemon world..."
“Eh? Dragon? Eudemon? Eudemon world?” Astrid finds it familiar. “It seems that she had heard of them somewhere. Maybe in a dream? She continues to read.”
"There are only a few members in the dragon family, because they directly affect the balance of the whole eudemon world..."
"Dragon can manipulate elements, which is called magic..."
"Young dragons are very curious and often go to other worlds..."
That world is really magical! Astrid is so fascinated that she doesn’t notice that a book floats in the air on the shelf behind her, and the pages of the book flipped over slightly, as if an invisible person is reading it.
Suddenly, Astrid heard a thunder. “Eh?” She ran out of the corner hustily only to find that only a few people are still in the library. The Reading class is over.
Feeling hungry, Astrid borrows the book which is a good material for homework. Then it rains cats and dogs.
Astrid stands alone under the eaves, with fewer and fewer people around. Seeing that there is no one in sight, Astrid rushes into the rain with a book in her arms... “Eh? Why doesn’t the rain fall on she as expected?”
She looks up in amazement-a transparent umbrella has been set up over her, blocking all the rain.
"I must be dreaming! I will be called to ask questions later!" Astrid pinched her arm hard. "Wake up... ah, it hurts!"
“Is this not a dream?” She opens her eyes wide, and the landscape in front of her is distorted. A transparent human figure appears. "Who are you?" Astrid asked.
"Master, you finally perceive my existence." Said a voice.
Master?
Many years later, Astrid still remembers this moment: the rain stops gradually, the sun comes out of clouds, a beautiful rainbow is set up on the horizon, and the transparent figure in front of him becomes clearer-eyebrows, nose, jaw... Finally, a slender, cold-looking young man appears in front of her.
He is like a rainbow depicting person, an amazing beautiful young man.
However, the fact is that it isn’t a romantic story. The frightened girl jumped back and shouts, "Help!"
Hearing the yelling, two school policemen come, who rushes to Astrid and says, "What’s the matter, Miss?"
Astrid’s voice trembles, "There are... ghosts!"
The school police looked at each other, and one of them says, "Are you OK? How can you talk nonsense? There is nothing in front of you."
"What’s the matter?" She speaks to herself.
The beautiful young man smiles and says: "Master, after you perceive my existence, you can see my body. But others can neither see me nor hear me."
Astrid is stunned.
After the school police left, the young man says, "Master, it’s no use reading ‘Prajna Paramita’. I‘m the dragon egg you adopted. You can’t cancel the covenant."
"Do you mean that the dream I had a week ago is true?"
"In the dream, you made a covenant with the count."
After receiving the affirmative answer, Astrid is shocked. What happened a week ago reappeared in her mind.
VOL.2
A week ago...
"Astrid, please answer this question!" the teacher yelled.
Astrid rubbed her sleepy eyes and found that she had just fallen asleep in the class, while the teacher was looking at her angrily.
"Astrid, which is the largest ellipse?"
The whole class began to snicker.
Astrid stood up awkwardly, wandering around with confused eyes.
She had no choice but to hesitate and said, "The largest ellipse... the playground of the school?"
The whole class roared with laughter. The head teacher shouted, "What are you talking about?"
On the blackboard, two ellipses were drawn, one slightly round and the other slightly flat. It turned out to be the question.
Mina, who sat in the front row of Astrid, deliberately put up her textbook. Astrid saw a line of words on the blank part. “The answer must be the answer!” Astrid was very moved. She didn’t expect that Mina, the best girl in the class, who usually turns a blind eye to herself, would help her. Astrid squinted her eyes and tried to read the words, "Figure 2... is the largest area, because it was flattened..."
"Ha ha ha!" The whole class was laughing crazily. The teacher was livid, and he clenched his teeth: "Astrid, go to do a-day volunteer work in the Love Animal society!"
"Now?" It’s class time! Astrid’s eyes widened.
"Right! Now!" Anyway, you also sleep in class. The teacher thought.
Astrid lowered her head and walked out of the seat. Outside the classroom, she heard Mina’s voice answering the teacher’s question loud and clear.
“It is reasonable. How can such an excellent girl like Mina make friends with an ordinary girl like her?”
Milo College is a boarding school, and there are many stray cats and dogs around the campus restaurant. Love Animal society comes into being later, and the work of volunteers is to send stray cats and dogs to the community.
When passing through the remote woods, Astrid found a black kitten hiding under the bushes, with blue eyes shining in the dark. She bent over and waved to it, but the kitten ignored.
Astrid quickly walked to the Love Animal society, took a piece of bread and continued to talk to the kitten, and finally successfully hold it. She took it in her arms and took it to the club.
Since it is class time, no one was in the club, so cute animals were free to run around.
Astrid put down the kitten and began to clean the room, then fed the animals. After finishing her work, she took the kitten, sat down on the outdoor grass, and said to it, "You don’t need to wander anymore. You can eat delicious food in the club, waiting for someone to adopt you."
The kitten meowed.
The bell rang, and then the teaching building went lively. "Would you like hear my experience?" Astrid sighed. She was not sure whether she could go back now because the teacher didn’t figure out how long she should work in the club-a class or a day?
The kitten meowed again. Astrid took it as an affirmative answer, and told the kitten her story gently.
Being ignored and teased by others, is a common thing for her.
——"Astrid, there are enough students in the tug-of-war, so you can’t participate."
——"Astrid, you’d better not go to the summer camp because you cannot swim."
——"Astrid, don’t be sad. Anyway, we already know you can’t do anything successfully."
——"Astrid, can you pretend to be ill tomorrow? This math contest is very important. Don’t drag the performance of our class."
Similar experiences were numerous.
Milo College has a long history. With strong academic atmosphere and a large number of talents, the high school is the leading talent cultivation base. However, there is a shortcoming, that is...In Milo College, where talents are gathered, maybe cursed by the witch, one or two students each year will fail to attend the university because of their poor grades. Over time, students have a strong resentment against poor students-it is because of poor students that the school’s enrollment rate can’t reach 100%!
In Senior 1 of Milo College, Astrid is the only student who had bad grades in the whole class.
Next, a small theater——
Reporter: Mr. President, would you like to share us the school’s enrollment rate?
Principal: The school’s enrollment rate is 99. 99. 99. 99... (in an infinite cycle)
Reporter: That is to say, there are still students in Milo College who fail to enroll in university?
Principal: ... (in great embarrassment)
The small theater is over.
Now, our poor heroine’s eyes were full of tears. A drop of crystal tears dipped into the soil.
The little black cat suddenly jumped out, ran to a big tree, and disappeared.
Astrid thought it was disturbed and went to look for it, but she didn’t find it. Suddenly, a silver beam flashed from the big tree. "Bang", the thick trunk of the tree suddenly split, and a marble ladder with pink petals appeared.
"What’s the matter?" The girl was shocked. She walked up the stairs, and entered a big garden at the end of the stairs. The blooming flowers gathered into a sea of flowers.
A ladder stood in the middle of the flower sea. When climbing up the stairs, the petals were blown open, and the marble ladder surface was clear like a mirror, reflecting the girl’s surprised face.
At the end of the ladder is a crystal palace in Gothic style. Each arched window is decorated with carved flowers, and the high palace top pierces the sky like a sword.
A piece of music hovered in the air. Driven by the music, Astrid walked through the garden to the front of the crystal palace. With a "squeak", the palace door opened automatically.
There was a long table in the palace, on which several European candlesticks were placed, and the candlesticks jump with bright red flames. A blond man, dressed in medieval aristocratic clothing, sat at the long table and smiled charmingly at her, "Hello, welcome to the shop of the Earl of Justice."
"Hello, count... would you like to tell me why there is such a place?" Astrid stammered.
"My beautiful guest, I can’t answer your question. It’s like asking why there are human beings and magic in the world." The Earl of Justice bowed to her. "The creator created all this without any reason."
In the air, a silver long-beaked pot floated over. The pot tilted slightly and the coffee cup on the long table was filled with coffee.
"Why did you invite me?" Astrid took up the coffee with some apprehension. Then, one small box after another flew into the air, and each box contained a piece of parchment.
"Please choose a piece of parchment from the box." The count ignored the girl’s question.
Astrid took out a parchment in a beige box and handed it to the count. The count opened his eyes and said, "Congratulations, you are going to adopt an abandoned dragon egg."
There is a dragon egg drawn on that parchment.
"Hem..." Astrid choked on coffee and coughed violently.
"After adopting the dragon egg, you can enjoy the magic of it!"
Astrid tried to keep her voice steady: "Sorry, count, you didn’t tell me the meaning of choosing parchment before. Besides, I’m just a student, and I‘m not able to adopt dragons... dragon eggs..."
Dragon eggs! What’s that? Dragon, what is it? The dragon that manipulates rain in folklore.
A profound smile appeared on the count’s handsome face. His eyes were sophisticated, as if he had seen through her heart.
"It’s a pity. You must adopt it because... it was abandoned because of you."
"Huh?"
"The dragon family in the eudemon world is very powerful, but they were born from fragile dragon eggs. The dragon egg can’t fly without dragon cloud. But the dragon cloud has a fatal weakness-once a girl cries, whose tears evaporate into the sky, it will melt a dragon cloud. We all know what will happen if the dragon egg loses the dragon cloud?"
"Phantom world? Dragon cloud? Dragon egg falling from the sky? Tears?" Astrid felt that she was listening to fairy tales.
"Yes! Your tears made this dragon egg lose its own dragon cloud, falling from the sky to the earth." The count whispered, with his eyes filled with feelings of sadness. "The dragon egg will never see his father and mother again. Is it poor?"
"Yes, it’s pathetic..." Astrid thought that the count must be a lonely man, and may have some spiritual problems...so she had better follow his words.
"Do you still want to refuse?"
"No..."
"Are you responsible for the dragon egg?"
"Yes."
"The contract comes into effect!" The count waved his hand smartly. "Dragon egg, come out, you have a master!"
Then, a rumbling voice came. Astrid turned and saw a huge white egg rolling down the stairs towards her
"Ah!" Astrid screamed, and she squatted on the ground, holding her head and. When she opened her eyes again, she only saw the wrinkled bark of the big banyan tree——
Everything was just a dream. She unexpectedly fell asleep with her head against the trunk.
VOL.3
She is informed that the dream is real, and she does make a contract in the dream.
"No!" Astrid exclaims, "It’s just a dream!"
"Don’t be so excited, no one but me can see your drooling sleep." The young man says lightly.
Astrid glares at the uninvited guest and says in a skeptical tone, "I remember that the dragon egg is clearly a big white egg! Who are you?"
The young man says coldly, "The count asked me to apologize to you on behalf of him. The young eudemon accidentally scared you. Therefore, I will accompany you in this way."
In the face of the unquestionable reality, Astrid looks up sadly and says, "... OK, what should I call you?"
"Elvis."
"Elvis, can I cancel the contract?"
"Sure! However, I must remind you -" Elvis shrugs his shoulders casually, "as a punishment for breach of contract, you will dream of doing homework and exams every night. Total nightmare."
"Well, I’m just joking."
"That’s great." Elvis’s is a little impatient. "After the contract comes into effect, I will temporarily serve you, master."
Hmm, master?
At this moment, an idea strikes Astrid.
"That’s great, Elvis! Can you help me measure the perimeter of the playground first?" Astrid is unusually excited.
Elvis says confusingly, "Perimeter?"
“In short, you turn around and we walk along the playground in the opposite direction. You should remember how many steps. When we meet again, you tell me how many steps you have taken!"
Elvis nodded silently and turned away. Looking at his figure, Astrid snickered and then she walked away secretly.
She doesn’t want to get into this trouble! Although she sympathizes with Elvis, she is weak and powerless.
As Astrid expects, Elvis doesn’t appear again in the afternoon.
Does she get rid of him?
Astrid suddenly feels lost. "How should Elvis return to the eudemon world? Will anyone else adopt him?" Although she stares at the textbook on the table, her mind has wondered.
The art commissioner in the class is a fat girl who likes eating pineapple bun, so others give her a nickname - pineapple bun. She holds a stack of tickets and shouts, "Everyone, there will be a basketball game for the school team this afternoon. Here are tickets!"
Other girls immediately cheered.
"Pineapple bun, please give me a ticket."
"It is said that Young Master Bai will play in this time. He’s so charming!"
"Really? I have been looking forward to that for a long time!"
Girls all plead pineapple bun for tickets.
"Could you please give me a ticket?" Astrid squeezes into the crowd.
"I‘m sorry, there are limited tickets. They are all booked. The last one is for me." The art commissioner gives an expected answer.
"But I want to cheer for Young Master Bai. He is a very gentle man." Astrid stammers.
The art commissioner looks at her incredulously. "You mean you know him?"
Astrid nodded.
The art commissioner screams, "Are you dreaming? How can you know him?"
Others cast their eyes on this side. Astrid blushes, so she doesn’t refute. She quickly lowers head and returns to her seat.
Being ignored and teased is common thing for her. She should be used to it, but she hated herself because she has no courage to speak for herself.
She really knows Alex Bai, but he probably doesn’t remember her.
When she was just enrolled, the sports association once organized a girls’ basketball interest group. One afternoon, she and several girls were practicing in the basketball court. They were laughed by others for their poor skills.
Therefore, they wanted to escape when she saw a tall boy come up and said to those students, "Is there anyone who is born to be excellent? If there is such a person, please stand up and compete with me. Apologize to the girls if you lose!"
The onlookers looked at each other and soon dispersed.
That afternoon, he taught them to play basketball, and encouraged them. The girls blushed and expressed gratitude to him. Alex replied, “You’re welcome.”
It is said that Alex is a cold person, but Astrid thinks that he is a gentle and upright man.
She always keeps in mind what he said - Is there anyone born to be an excellent person? Every time she thinks of it, she would feel cheerful.
However, she doesn’t get the opportunity to cheer for him this time. Astrid is a little sad for that.
Milo College competes with Zech College. Shortly after the game begins, cheers burst from time to time in the court. It must be very exciting.
Standing outside the stadium, Astrid sighs. When she is about to leave, someone blocks her way.
A bad feeling.
It is too late to escape because her collar is seized. "Master."
Astrid takes a deep breath and turns back with a fake smile.
Elvis’s is expressionless, "Master, do you want to abandon me?"
"Definitely no! I had an important thing to do and forgot to call you when I left. Hmm, it’s... having lunch! I want to have lunch! Then I have class."
Elvis seems relieved, and says proudly, "I see. No one would give up the magic of the dragon family."
Astrid has nothing to say about his narcissistic idea. She doesn’t think of any magic! Who knows what would happen if she is unable to help him return to the eudemon world?
Wait, magic?
"Elvis, what magic can you use?"
"Phantom magic can be used to simulate any object." Elvis says, "Although the new born dragon is not strong enough, it is born with a kind of magic."
"Can you help me enter the basketball court?" Astrid asks.
Elvis smiles, "Please wait and see."
With a sound of "Boom", Elvis magically becomes a ticket.
"That’s great!" Astrid happily takes the ticket and enters the court. The art commissioner asks her suspiciously, "Astrid, how did you get the ticket?"
"Er... I picked it up at the door." Astrid is not good at lying.
Pineapple bun snatches the ticket, "How can it be?" suddenly, she screams and throws away the ticket as if it were a fire, "Oh, it’s hot!"
Despite being suspected, Astrid hurriedly picks up the ticket and puts it into her pocket. Just at this time, the Milo College team scores a three-point goal, and Pineapple bun is immediately attracted.
"What’s the matter with you?" When no one notices, Astrid questions Elvis.
"I don’t like her tone. Do you like it?"
"Well, I don’t like it either. However, you are not allowed to do that thing. I want to watch the game."
"I can’t understand the happiness of ten people grabbing one ball."
"That’s the rule. When they grab the ball and throw it into the basket, they will score. At the end of the game, the party with the highest score wins."
"Then you can go home?"
Astrid doesn’t answer. She searches for the familiar figure.
Alex Bai, the center in the basketball team of Milo College, is an aristocratic teenager in the campus, and the only son of the president of Bai Group. He is called Young Master Bai by his classmates. He is low-key, mysterious but elegant and courteous. Alex is really skillful at basketball.
"OMG. Young Master Bai has grabbed the ball. Attack, attack!"
Everyone is excited. Astrid also stares at Alex Bai.
Alex jumps with ease with smooth shooting move. In Astrid’s eyes, it’s an unforgettable picture.
"Bang"! The basketball is slammed into the basket.
There is another deafening scream and cheering, "Alex Bai! Alex Bai!"
Five minutes later, Elvis suddenly asks, "I have a question."
"Quiet!" Astrid stares at the basketball court excitedly and pats her pocket impatiently.
"I have a question." Elvis asks again. Luckily, his voice isn’t drowned by a sea of cheers.
"Speak quickly and loudly."
"The voice of the dragon family is very small. Human cannot hear it. Only people who sign a contract can you hear it. If I speak loudly, it is noisy."
"Tell the point."
"... OK."
After a few seconds of silence, Elvis’s voice resounds through the basketball court: "My question is, there are so many players, but girls only pay attention to Alex Bai Why?"
The players in the game are stunned, and all the girls flush. A staff shouts angrily, "Who is shouting with the trumpet? What do you want to do?"
Astrid hurriedly blocks her pocket to stop Elvis from talking. When the game continues, she secretly glances at the ticket in her pocket.
There is nothing in the pocket. Elvis gets lost!
Astrid gets worried and looks around carefully for a long time, failing to find him. Suddenly, there is a burst of cheers again: "Come on!"
An arc shot points steadily to the basket. A player from Zech College team jumps up and reaches out. Almost everyone think that it will miss.
The audience can’t help hissing nervously.
The surprising scene came on then - the basketball seems to be alive, keeping still on the basketball frame. It scores.
It’s silent.
The next part seems to deviate from the track. As long as the player of Zech College team grabs the basketball, the ball will suddenly run to the player of Milo College team. As long as Zech team player gets the ball, the basketball will suddenly stop at the moment of entering the basket and jumps out of the basket.
On the contrary, Milo College team hits every ball.
Astrid is dumbfounded. This abnormal scene makes she vaguely guess that Elvis does it.
At the end of the game, the Milo College team wins, and the crowd is full of joy. A player walks to Young Master Bai and claps his shoulder happily: "Great, we won! Let’s celebrate later!"
Alex looks a little angry, and he searches the court, "Where is the basketball?"
"Basketball? Forget it, let’s go to celebrate."
"Cancel it."
"Why?"
"You know the reason. I will apply to give this prize to Zech College." He replies lightly, "I refuse the honor obtained by unfair means."
Other players stare blankly at Young Master Bai’s receding figure.
VOL.4
The crowd pours out of the basketball court. Astrid sees Elvis under the tree, smiling at her.
"Is that you?" Astrid asks.
Elvis nods.
"Have you been spotted?" Astrid looked nervously around.
"Don’t worry. They can’t see me. Only you, my master, can see me in this world."
"Why did you do that?"
"I want to end the game as soon as possible. I'm hungry so I want to go home with you." Elvis shrugs. Suddenly, he stares at Astrid "Master, do you want to abandon me?"
"No. I will keep my promise" Astrid answers. Seeing Elvis’s suspicious expression, she says again, "This time, I promise!"
Elvis is relieved then.
Elvis uses magic to end the match just for food... Well, that’s a reason... However, she doesn’t want to adopt him. He is so eloquent.
This gloomy mood haunts her until dinner. Astrid even loses her interest in delicious food.
If someone keeps mumbling “You are short of vitamins, so you need to eat more vegetables.” “The braised pork will produce 800 calories.” and “Drinking pork bone soup will prevent your feet from cramping”, you will have no appetite.
Leaning on his chin, Elvis frowns and says, "You are too picky."
"Can you shut up?" Astrid can’t bear it. If she can’t eat her favorite, what’s the meaning of living in this world?
"Astrid, who are you talking to?" Her mother finds her strange behavior.
"Nobody." She hurriedly lowers her head.
"Being too picky is bad for your health." Elvis says without any sense of guilt.
The cold boy at first has become more talkative. Maybe they have been familiar with each other.
Astrid continues to ignore his words.
"Master, I need an ice-cream and a cake, and a cup of coffee after dinner, thank you!" Under the impact of count, he is really a trouble.
Astrid manages her emotion and eats the braised fish.
"Master, I have to remind you that fish skin is very nutritious. You shouldn’t remove the skin next time you eat it..."
Astrid finally loses temper. "Shut up, shut up." She really wants to know how a dragon egg can know so many words like "vitamins" and "calories" that are only available in the human world!
"Are you OK?" Her father asks.
Her mother is also surprised and says, "Xiao Sang, who are you talking to?"
Her sister, chewing the chicken leg, says, "She looks strange after school."
"No, nothing." Thinking that they can’t see Elvis, Astrid has to sit down and continues to eat.
Suddenly, her mother hands her a porcelain cup, "Xiao Sang, please give me a cup of water."
Astrid stands up in a daze, goes into the kitchen with the cup. However, she slips. The cup rolls on the ground and hits the cabinet, breaking into pieces.
That’s her mother’s favorite cup. What should she do?
Astrid looks into the restaurant from the crack of the door. They are still having dinner. Nobody notices anything unusual.
"It’s over, what should we do now?" Astrid hopelessly picks up the fragments and is ready to endure her mother’s punishment.
Elvis walks in and smiles confidently, "Master, let me help you. Please wait and see my magic."
With a “bang”, Elvis magically becomes a porcelain cup with phoenix pattern exactly like the one before.
Astrid pours boiling water in, and the porcelain cup says in a painful voice, "Oh my god, it’s too hot! " Seeing that Elvis is going to change back to its original form, she quickly makes a cup of fresh mango juice, then rushed to the living room in a hurry and hands it to her mother. She sits down nervously. Her mother asks curiously, "Why do you give me an empty cup?"
Astrid surprisingly finds that the glass is empty.
"Sorry, Mom, I forget1" Astrid hurriedly walks to the kitchen with the empty “cup”.
A whisper comes from his parents, "Does Astrid have something wrong?" "I think so."
"What’s the matter?" Astrid closes the kitchen door and speaks angrily to the porcelain cup in her hand. Elvis answers happily, "Mango juice is really delicious!"
Astrid’s eyes, for the first time in her life, says in a ferocious tone, "If you do that again, I will directly fill the cup with boiling water!"
"Well, I will never do it again."
After dinner, Astrid starts to do her homework.
Doing homework is also a painful thing under the supervision of Elvis. After he flips through the textbook in a short time, he understands all the topics. Therefore, he keeps reminding Astrid, "You don’t need to use such complicated equation... Oh, maybe you don’t understand the question... Why does such a simple question cost you so much time? Are all people so stupid?"
Astrid is going crazy.
"Be quiet!" She pats the table hard and points out the window. "You have magic. Today I want you to become a plant and stay on the windowsill without making any noise!"
"Yes, master! Please wait and see my magic!" Five seconds later, a green potted plant appeared outside the window.
Astrid sighs with relief, pulls the curtain and lies in the bed.
It’s a tired day.
VOL.1
The rising sunlight penetrates through the clouds, shining on hundreds of flowers and plants in the garden, and on a wooden plate on the European-style iron door. There are three words on the wooden plate - Flowers Garden.
Milo College is famous for its scenery, and the Flowers Garden is one of them.
There is an exquisite European villa in the garden. Thick curtains hang in the villa, which looks gloomy. One ray of sunlight passes through the gap of the curtain, falling straight on the wooden floor.
A woman in a pair of red cowhide high-heeled shoes says, "Housekeeper, what’s the matter? I don’t want sunshine in my room."
An old woman immediately runs over and pulls the curtain tightly, "Sorry, Miss!"
"Sunshine will make people grow old easily. " A beautiful woman with aloof eyes says. She has beautiful golden hair and blue eyes, but her skin is sickly pale.
"Fetch me the beauty lotion."
"Miss..." The housekeeper looks at the girl anxiously, sighs helplessly, and opens a door upstairs.
There is a huge glass cabinet, which is full of green lotion.
On the windowsill of Astrid’s bedroom, a house plant stretches out its branches and knocks on the window three times.
"It’s so noisy." Astrid mutters, completely ignoring that it has been 7:30.
"Master... do you need me to help you throw this annoying alarm clock out?"
"......" Nobody answers.
Astrid wakes up suddenly, dresses as fast as possible, and rushes to the bathroom. Her mother stands at the door and shouts, "Astrid, don’t worry. Today is the weekend!"
"I know, but I‘m going to do part-time job in the flower shop of the school! I’m late, and I will skip breakfast." Astrid rushes out of the house quickly. The potted plant jumps down from the windowsill sensitively, and then changes into a silver-haired teenager, following Astrid.
There is no one at the gate of the school flower shop. Astrid runs in and sees the shop owner’s kind smile.
"Don’t worry. We don’t need part-time workers temporarily."
"Why?" Astrid and Elvis say at the same time.
The shop owner reluctantly says, "All the flowers sold in our shop are provided by Flower Garden, but no flower blooms this year. Therefore, there is no need for employees for the time being."
So... Astrid can’t buy MP4 this time.
Astrid is a little absent-minded, kicking the small stones while walking. Suddenly, the small stone seems to be glued to the ground and can not be kicked any more.
"Elvis, stop doing that." The girl sighs slightly. "I‘m nervous now."
Elvis says, "Master, I have a question."
"What."
"How can human beings comfort a person who feels lost when he cannot reach his goal?"
"Tell them the goal is not important."
So Elvis to Astrid seriously, "Well, is it so important to work in that flower shop?"
"... Shut up."
Elvis says helplessly, "Master, you lied to me." Astrid gives him a dirty look, "Fool!"
Ten minutes later, they appear at the gate of Flower Garden. Without lock, they gently enter the garden.
There is no one in the garden.
Astrid creeps to the garden and finds that the plants were only small buds, but none of them were in full bloom.
"Why can’t the flowers bloom since they have already sprouted?" Astrid frowns, "Elvis, can you use magic to make these flowers bloom?"
Elvis shakes his head and says, "No, dragon eggs can only imitate physical magic before hatching."
They are thinking hard when suddenly they hear an angry voice shouting, "Who are you? It is impolite to intrude into the garden!"
"I’m sorry!" Astrid hurriedly turns around and finds that the sound comes from a small villa in the corner of the garden.
"Is it better to apologize in person?" She knocks nervously at the door and walks in.
Thick curtains hanging in the villa, only one lamp is lit. She rubs her eyes in the dim light. In the shadow sat a woman in skirt. She is unable to see her clearly.
"Hello, I‘m sorry for intruding in your garden. I just want to see why the flowers in the Flower Garden don’t bloom." Astrid bows. She remembers that the owner’s name of the Flower Garden is Catherine, who has been in charge of the garden for ten years.
Catherine stands up, and Astrid sees her face clearly. She is very beautiful but looks cold. She seems have experienced a lot.
"All right. I overreacted just now. Please have a cup of coffee before you leave." Catherine’s tone eases. She sighed, "In fact, I don’t understand the reason that flowers don’t bloom."
After getting forgiveness, Astrid says happily, "Thank you, Catherine."
VOL.2
Then, Astrid is thrown out by Catherine. At the same time, the door is closed with a thunderous noise: "Don’t call me aunt! The rude child, go to hell!"
Elvis wants to help her, but finds that he can’t touch Astrid. "After the dragon egg becomes human, it is intangible" He remembers the count’s words.
Astrid stands up frustrated and limps out of the Flowers Garden.
Looking at Astrid’s loss, Elvis thinks himself as useless for the first time. However, he suddenly has an idea: "Master, I can help you investigate the secret of Flowers Garden!"
He turns into a bee then. Of course, he doesn’t forget to say, " Please wait and see my magic."
The bee flies into the garden and stops on the branch of a tulip. He listens quietly to the discussion of the flowers. He is surprised.
The owner of the Flowers Garden, Catherine is really ridiculous.
According to the flowers, Catherine plants a lot of traditional Chinese medicine, grinds it and refines beauty products to prevent herself from aging. She never basks in the sun. She always pulls thick curtains in the villa to prevent ultraviolet rays from corroding her skin. She doesn’t even associate with anyone, because those people always bring all kinds of bacteria.
Elvis immediately flies out of the garden and tells Astrid what he heard.
"You mean that the flowers realize that bloom means withering, so they refuse that?" Astrid exclaims.
"Yeah."
"God, it is terrible! Aunt Catherine is so pathetic. Elvis, we must save her and the flowers in the garden!" Astrid is full of confidence.
The silver-haired boy answers, "Hey, do you forget what happened just now?"
Sure enough, ten minutes later, Astrid still lingers in front of the garden, looking desperately at the European-style iron gate. "You can’t even enter the garden. How can you save her?"
A voice behind her asks, "What are you talking about?"
Huh? Astrid is startled. Looking back, Young Master Bai standing behind her with a golden retriever. He wears a clean white shirt with a neat cut, which further reflects his extraordinary temperament.
“Hello, Young Master Bai." The girl immediately blushes and says hello incoherently.
Young master Bai squats down, stroked the hair of the golden retriever with his slender fingers, and continues to ask: "I am walking dog here and heard you are talking about to save... what’s the matter?"
"It’s because..." Astrid tries to hold back her excitement and finally tells him what she saw and heard today.
"Ha ha, how dare you call her Aunt Catherine?" Young Master Bai smiles very rarely.
Astrid blushes and looks down at the ground.
"You mean, do you have a way to make all the flowers in the garden open?"
"I can’t promise... but I can have a try."
Young master Bai says, "You are really an interesting girl. Well, maybe I can help you."
The girl is shocked again: "Ah?"
Although young, Alex Bai, as the successor of the family business, has participated in the management of the family business. A year ago, he bought half of the property rights of Flowers Garden, but because Catherine is very stubborn and has been managing the garden for a longtime, he has only one week of management rights every year.
"If you really have a solution, I would like to give you the management of this week," says Young Master Bai.
"Great! Thank you, Young Master Bai."
Early the next morning, Astrid comes to the garden with Elvis. After reading the document signed by Young Master Bai, Catherine reluctantly let them enter the garden.
"Elvis, this time, we must succeed, not fail!" Astrid clenches her fist.
A drop of sweat seeps from Elvis’s forehead: "Master, do you have a solution?"
"Of course!" Astrid whispers words in Elvis’s ear.
Elvis turns into a bee then.
Astrid says proudly, "Elvis, tell the flowers that if they don’t bloom again, I will cut off the flower buds." She waves the big scissors in her hand.
Elvis retells Astrid’s words. The flowers hear, but no one answers.
Astrid squints, “Elvis, tell them again - although we have only one week’s management, we have enough time to give you some ’nutrition‘."
"The nutrition is smelly and dirty fertilizer." As soon as Elvis’s voice falls, Astrid see the flowers tremble.
A minute passes.
Three minutes have passed.
"Elvis, is it surprisingly quiet?" Astrid rubs her stiff neck. Elvis turns back to a beautiful young man with a strange look.
"I always feel that someone is staring at us..."
Elvis says, slowly looking up. There are numerous bees lying on the trunk of the tree overhead. They glare at Astrid and their wings tremble slightly.
Astrid says lightly, "Elvis, I think we should go..."
"I hope I can get out of here..."
With a "buzzing" sound, bees fly down from the sky and are preparing to attack Astrid. Elvis pulls Astrid out of the garden and says, "The flowers are angry. They even order the bees to punish us!"
Astrid holds her head and runs desperately. Catherine stands in the villa and pulls the curtain aside. Seeing this, she giggles. "You deserve it, smelly girl! How dare you call me aunt?"
Catherine stands beside the housekeeper who sighs and says, "Where is the gentle and kind lady before..."
"You are too talkative." Catherine’s voice immediately cools down. "Go and grind some beauty lotion for me."
The housekeeper sighs and goes upstairs. Catherine pulls the curtain hard, and the room falls into darkness again.
A large group of bees are buzzing after Astrid. As soon as the first bee is about to catch up, Astrid is pulled into a car.
The bees hit the car window and make a "thump" sound. Astrid is shocked. She looks up and finds that the person who saved her is Young Master Bai.
"Thank you." Astrid is at a loss.
Young master Bai nods slightly and let the driver drive.
"Is it your solution?" Young Master Bai frowns slightly and looks at the threatening bees outside the window.
Elvis also hides in the car. He says to Young Master Bai with some displeasure, "Don’t talk to my master in this tone. She has tried her best!"
"You’ve done your best..." Young Master Bai says to Astrid with a gentle voice after a pause. "Now that you’ve done your best, don’t worry about the Flowers Garden."
Astrid and Elvis are shocked.
Alex Bai can hear Elvis.
Astrid looks at Elvis puzzlingly, which seems to ask: Don’t you say that only I can hear and see you?
Elvis scratches his head, "I didn’t use human acceptable decibel to speak just now, can’t he hear it?"
"Young Master Bai, how many people are there in the car?"
"Driver included, four people."
“......”
Elvis reaches up to Alex Bai and holds out two fingers: "How many is this?"
"Two."
They are shocked.
Alex Bai says, "I’m sorry, I just won the National Mathematical Olympiad. Would you please don’t ask such a simple question?"
There is a silence in the car.
Immediately, Young Master Bai reaches out his fingers and gracefully blocks his ears to prevent their screams from piercing his eardrum.
"Why can you see Elvis?"
"Count! You lied to me! Your magic is weak and I am not safe in the human world!"
"Stop it." Young Master Bai says coldly. "The problem now is not why I can see you, but how to solve the problem of Flowers Garden."
He opens his account book, shakes his head and says, "Half of the property right of the Flowers Garden is mine. If there are no flowers for sale, it is a loss-making business."
Astrid blurts out: "Young Master Bai, I have a solution!" She clenches her small fist and nods firmly.
Elvis suddenly has an ominous feeling. Soon, it is confirmed.
"What? You want me to imitate a butterfly?"
"Yes! I need the first-hand information of the mysterious garden owner Catherine." The girl smiles a little treacherously. "If you become a butterfly, the bees can’t recognize you."
Elvis holds his forehead in frustration and decides to accept the task. He turns into a spotted butterfly and slowly flies into the garden.
The flower garden in the afternoon is very quiet, and only the plants are whispering in the language they can understand. Elvis’s beautiful wings win the admiration of the flowers, so his inquiry about Catherine is very smooth.
It turns out that ten years ago, Catherine was a very beautiful girl. Her only joy in life was to plant flowers. Maybe there are too many praises. She can’t bear any sense of loss. She couldn’t stand the erosion of time and was intent on keeping her youth, so she refused friends, love, sunshine and everything that should have happened in her life, so she became a cranky old lady.
VOL.3
Elvis tells Astrid all these things, and says: "Actually, Catherine is a very kind person, but her behavior has a subtle impact on the flowers, making them unwilling to bloom and wither."
"In other words, the flowers are actually affected by Catherine. As long as she makes changes, the flowers will also change?" Astrid says thoughtfully.
Elvis leans against the wall with his arms, and his silver hair is shining in the sunshine.
"Maybe!" he says.
The little bulb of inspiration in the girl’s brain is lit again. Astrid has a good idea. She tells Young Master Bai her idea.
"Are you sure this method is feasible?" Alex Bai still has some doubts.
"Sure!" Astrid’s confidence has increased to 100%.
An hour later, Young Master Bai, followed by a group of young and lively girls, walks into the flower garden with picture clips, and then sits under the budding flowers and begins to sketch.
Catherine sees this scene behind the curtain and can hardly believe her eyes. She says angrily, "How disgusting! He led so many people into my garden! Grandma, drive them out!"
The housekeeper says helplessly, "Young lady, they are just painting. Moreover, the management right of the garden today belongs to Young Master Bai, who has the right to decide anything."
Catherine clenches her fist angrily.
At this time, there is a noise in the room. Catherine looks at the door and finds that someone has inserted a letter through the crack of the door.
The pink letter has a pleasant smell after being unfolded.
What does it smell like? It seems that the fragrance of flowers is overflowing in the wind, and the bedding that has been basked in all day emits the smell of sunshine.
A familiar but strange feeling.
Catherine is stunned. She looks at a line of words on the letter and doesn’t speak for a long time.
It says: A person’s Eden is not paradise. Come to the sun and laugh with us!
Laughter is said to deepen the wrinkle and make beautiful faces ugly. Since learning this theory, Catherine never laughs.
Now, she can’t remember the last time she laughed.
She stands in front of the mirror in a daze. She has a perfect face and shiny hair, but she can only hide in the dark every day. She spends a lot of time on keeping beautiful every day.
What is the reason for losing the happiness, the bright sunshine and the appreciation of others? Catherine suddenly feels confused.
"Miss, you see how happy they are! Maybe, you can go out with them." says the housekeeper earnestly. However, Catherine turns and walks up the stairs.
"Don’t disturb me before dark." She clenches her fist, trying to control something.
In the garden, a girl in a floral skirt expresses her gratitude to Alex Bai, "The scenery here is very beautiful, thank you for letting us come in to sketch."
"Nothing, you deserve such beautiful scenery." Alex Bai replies in a polite tone.
A girl blushes and asks, "Young Master Bai, can I draw you?"
"It is convenient to learn from you," replies Alex Bai lightly. He sees Astrid sneaking away from Catherine’s villa, like a small hamster.
It seems that she is a very interesting girl. Thinking of this, Alex Bai slightly smiles.
Astrid sneezes heavily as soon as she steps down, and mutters, "Someone must be thinking of me."
"So people will sneeze when someone miss you?" Elvis says thoughtfully, pinching his nose and groaning, "then I will sneeze too."
"No way!" Astrid hurriedly makes a forbidden gesture to him. "If the dragon sneezes, it will rain!"
"But sneezing means being missed."
"Are you a fool?"
After a dispute, they finally decide on one thing - the purpose of their trip is to make flowers bloom willingly. So Elvis stops worrying about sneezing and uses his magic to turn bees.
The girls are talking and laughing, and their laughter reverberates in the garden.
"Elvis, can you understand what the flowers are talking about now?" Astrid asks.
He raises his ears and replies, "The flowers are praising those girls for their beauty. They are worried that those girls will be unwilling to paint them if they do not bloom."
"Then encourage them to blossom."
Elvis flies into the middle of the air and shouts to the flowers, "Beautiful flowers, please bloom, don’t worry. Let them record your most beautiful appearance, which is also eternal."
The flowers are infected and blossom one after another. In a flash, the tide of flowers in the garden is waving.
These girls are stunned. They set up their picture clips again and draw beautiful pictures. Elvis turns into a beautiful boy and sighs with relief: "Master, we made it."
Really? The door of the villa is still closed. A lonely soul is there.
Alex Bai sighs, "I think we just succeeded partly." Elvis says incredulously, "But the flowers are blooming!"
Astrid points at the villa and says, "Next year, the flowers will still be affected by Catherine and will not blossom."
"What should we do?" Elvis asks.
"Anyway, thank you first." Alex Bai doesn’t answer his question, looking down at his watch, "I think... they should come."
While talking, two women dressed appropriately walk into the flower garden. One is a lady in her 40s and the other is an old woman with gray hair. The younger lady wears a classical long skirt, covered with a shawl of woven flowers and fringes. The old woman looks fashion and in her trendy suit. Because of their noble temperament and elegant manners, they show an affinity.
Alex Bai steps forward and says politely, "Mom, Grandma."
Astrid steps forward worriedly to say hello, but then feels relived seeing their warm and gentle smiles.
They are really kind and elegant.
A girl in the painting group comes up to her grandmother and says, "Grandma, can I paint you?"
"Of course," Grandma says with a smile.
Astrid stands aside and feels that the picture is really warm. Unfortunately, time soon passes, and the sun is setting, and the warm golden sunset is shining all over the earth.
Before leaving, Young Master Bai’s mother asks, "Are these flowers cultivated by Miss Catherine?"
"Yes."
"Then I want to thank her." Alex’s mother says. Together with Alex’s grandmother, they knock on the door of the villa, and explains their intention to the housekeeper. After a moment, Catherine goes downstairs and is surprised to see the mother and grandmother of Young Master Bai.
"It doesn’t matter. It’s my duty to cultivate flowers, but..." Catherine stammers. She looks at the portrait in Alex’s grandmother’s hand. "Would you like to tell me why do you allow others to paint you?"
This question is really a bit impolite.
Young Master Bai and Astrid look at each other at the same time. They wait nervously for the answer.
"Because I have grandchildren and so many lovely little girls with me at this moment, I feel very happy. I want to record it in this way," Grandma says gently.
Alex’s mother takes the picture from her grandmother and says, "This picture is really good! Grandma has enjoyed the happiness. I think her smile is very beautiful."
Catherine is stunned.
Young Master Bai steps forward and says, "Miss Catherine, isn’t it a good thing to enjoy life with us?"
She turns around and looks at the dark villa. What is the meaning of these things she has been trying to keep these years?
She bursts into tears.
Even if the flowers do not open, they will slowly wither, as if they had never existed. They miss the sun and all the beauty in the world.
VOL.4
Elvis whispers to Astrid, "Let’s go."
Alex Bai also hears it. He turns around and says to Astrid, "Let me send you back. Catherine is accompanied by his mother and grandmother. I think she should understand."
At sunset, three people walk silently on the road.
Elvis sighs, "I can understand some logic in your world."
"Huh?" Astrid glares at him. He continues, "The most beautiful thing for human is to grow old gracefully."
Astrid intends to agree, but at that moment, she widens her eyes.
The shadow of her and the Alex Bai is pulled long by the sunset, while Elvis has no shadow in recent days because he is just an empty body.
Now, there is a round black shadow behind him!
"Elvis, is the shadow of the dragon family so strange? Or is it the shadow of the dragon egg?" Astrid points at the round shadow and stammers.
Alex Bai says, "Calm down, this is the shadow of dragon cloud."
"Dragon cloud?" Astrid and Elvis agree.
"Every eudemon can cultivate some magic items in the human world. For example, the dragon cloud of the dragon family. The dragon cloud of Elvis can only be regarded as the primary stage in terms of volume, and it needs further cultivation to become bigger."
"Can Elvis’s Dragon Cloud help him return to the world of eudemon?"
Young master Bai shakes his head and says, "As far as I know, the answer is no."
Astrid is so surprised, "The count clearly told me that it was because tears melted the dragon cloud that Elvis fell into the human world from the sky! According to this logic, as long as the dragon cloud recover, Elvis can return to the world of eudemon."
Alex Bai puts his hand into his trouser pocket, bends down and looks at the girl’s surprised face, smiles, "Eudemon doesn’t live in the sky. The eudemon world and human world are parallel worlds, and there is a ’door‘ between the two worlds. No one can control the opening and closing of the ’door’, including dragon cloud!"
Astrid suddenly remembers the book she reads in the library. It is mentioned in the book that the eudemon world and the human world are two parallel worlds. Originally, she doesn’t really understand the meaning of this sentence!
"Can tear really melt the dragon cloud?" she asks urgently.
"No," replies Young Master Bai
Astrid says, "Really? The count told me clearly..."
"The count lied to you." The silent Elvis interrupts her words.
There are so many crying girls all over the world. If tears can melt the dragon cloud, the whole dragon family will be destroyed.
"Why did the count deceive me?"
Elvis doesn’t answer, but just smiles, "Master, do you want me to measure the perimeter of the playground?"
"......" The girl lowers her head.
Elvis continues, "I understand, I haven’t seen my father and mother since I was born. I felt very hot since I was conscious. When I tried to climb out of the dragon’s egg, what I saw was the volcano. When I was an egg, I was thrown on the crater. Maybe, I‘m not so important, so I need you to adopt me. I must be a trouble for you. I am going to the playground first."
Astrid looks up at Elvis in surprise. It turns out that he is a child abandoned by his parents.
Elvis holds back tears, walks to the playground.
From the beginning, he should not have been born in this world.
In fact, only the party who rescinds the covenant will receive severe punishment. In fact, it is more severe than punishment like dreaming of writing homework and exams. If the master also wants him to disappear, he will take the initiative to bear the punishment.
"Hello..." The voice of Young Master Bai comes from behind.
" I’m fine, really." Elvis continues to walk forward without looking back.
Young master Bai follows him closely, pats him on the shoulder: "It’s Astrid who cried, and I‘m most afraid of coaxing girls."
Huh? Elvis looks back incredibly. He sees that the girl’s eyes were full of tears.
"Elvis, you big scoundrel, the dessert house is closing soon. Don’t go to measure the playground." Astrid shouts, "Let’s go to eat ice cream!"
She is unwilling to abandon this unlucky dragon egg or something.
Elvis is still a little worried, "Master, the meaning of inviting me to eat ice cream is that I don’t have to leave?"
Astrid stops abruptly, then looks back into his eyes and says seriously, "You don’t have to leave. I promise you won’t be allowed to leave me."
Elvis is stunned. She is really firm
"Really?" He couldn’t believe it. When he lives with count, he hears that many human masters abandon the eudemon after they adopt it.
"Yes."
"Master, do you swear to be true?"
"I swear it’s true."
"Then you have to swear that ’I swear it’s true' is true."
“......”
Until Elvis and Astrid disappear on the street corner, Young Master Bai still stands there.
"They are so interesting." he murmurs.
He has been thinking about a question that Elvis once asked, "Why can you see me?"
Why?
Why can he see Elvis who is a member of the dragon family?
Is this fate, reminding him not to forget that thing all the time?
That thing... that golden corner... that beautiful figure
Young Master Bai smiles with pain.
VOL.1
The second day.
On the windowsill, the green potted plant stretches out its branches and knocks on the glass window three times.
"It’s noisy, please be quiet." Astrid curls up on the bed and mumbles, completely ignoring that it has been 7:30 AM.
"Master, the flowers in the Flowers Garden are in full bloom. Doesn’t the flower shop need to recruit workers?" Elvis asks suspiciously.
The girl springs up and says, "Jesus. I forget it."
Astrid once again fails to work in the flower shop as she wished. After school, other students proudly take out their MP4 or IPAD, she is jealousy.
"Hey, you can’t go to the flower shop to work. Is it so important?" Elvis looks at the girl.
"I really want to buy an MP4" Astrid looks at the new white MP4 in the glass cabinet, and feels she is under great pressure. Well, I want to burst into tears.
"Do you like it?"
"Not really."
"Then why do you want it?"
"Because everyone else has it, so I should have it."
Elvis says, "According to count, this kind of emotion is called vanity."
"Shut up."
Astrid is angry. What pineapple bun said to the girls today rings in her mind again.
——"Who is the least fashionable girl in our class?"
——"I think it’s Astrid. She doesn’t even have an MP4."
In the eyes of students, the latest mobile phone, the most fashionable music player, the most popular new clothes and the most famous bag determine a person’s charm index. However, what is the relationship between luxury and sincerity, friendship and kindness? This is a world full of vanity.
The girl looks up at the blue sky and her eyes are slightly moist. She takes out her purse and says helplessly, "Now I don’t even have money for ice cream."
Elvis smiles, shrugs his shoulders and says, "It’s just a box. I will handle it"
Astrid looks at him in disbelief: "You can become an MP4? But that’s human high-tech."
"Master, please wait and see my magic." Elvis becomes the most fashionable large-screen MP4.
Astrid plugs the earphones and hears the beautiful light music played in the MP4, which is Richard’s piano music. "Elvis has a good taste. So familiar. It seems to be the music in the dessert house that I went to yesterday?"
The music suddenly stops, and Elvis says, "Master, I can only play the music I have heard. If you want me to play more songs, take me to listen to more music, and I will simulate it."
"Really? I think you are deliberately reminding me in this way - remember to go to the dessert house to buy you ice cream."
"You are smart, so let’s go quickly." Elvis says with a smile. The music plays again.
"Hey, how much ice cream do you want to eat? This... this is too ridiculous!" The girl wails.
Finally, Astrid gets the MP4 she dreamed of. She can’t help feeling excited. Although this MP4 is somewhat fake... but the key is that it is more exquisite than that of pineapple bun and Mina. She will never be looked down.
