Yarin’s POV:

To be honest, I was a little nervous. It wasn’t my first time alone with Lily, but it had never made me so cautious.

I didn’t know what to say to her, so I could only focus on Heller. God, I was clearly able to talk and laugh with Lily before. Why did I suddenly not know how to use my mouth before her?

I didn’t think it was because of a small no-show. Lily had made it clear that she didn’t care. i couldn’t find the source of the blockages in my heart. They were like little butterflies flying around in my little heart, making my heart beat like bones and unable to sit still.

Luckily, Lily didn’t seem to notice my embarrassment. She seemed to be in a good mood and kept smiling. This was very rare. She was a cold girl. She was not cold, but a smile was not something her face was used to carrying.

I thought I brought the smile, and maybe Heller too, but he wasn’t awake, so 1 decided he didn’t count, which excited me a little.

“I shouldn’t bother you anymore,” Lily said. “It’s getting late. You should rest.”

I wanted to stay with her longer, but Lily was obviously not in good spirits, so i said, “I walk you back to your room?”

She burst out laughing as if she had heard something very interesting. “Nah. We’re not in the deep mountains and forests. The villa is brightly lit, so there won’t be any wild wolves coming to abduct me.”

I blushed and sent Lily to the door. “Good night. See you tomorrow.”

“See you tomorrow.” She smiled gently and left.

I closed the door and let out a long sigh of relief. My tense nerves finally relaxed. Rubbing my sore neck, 1 gradually felt tired. I turned around and went to the bathroom to pack up and prepare to sleep.

As soon as i came out of the bathroom, I met a pair of big, sparkling eyes.

“Moon Goddess!”

I was shocked and almost threw the towel in my hand.

Heller had already woken up and was staring at me with his round almond eyes.

“You scared me!” I walked over and threw the towel at his face. “Why are you awake? Do you want some water?”

Heller threw the towel onto the sofa and said with a smile, “I woke up just now when you tucked me in. But for some reason, I felt that it was better to pretend to be asleep, so I didn’t say anything.”

“And?” He excitedly pounced on the bed and shouted, “Silver Moon’s limited edition moon fudges! Every single flavor!”

He held the glass in his hands as if he wanted to hug it to sleep. “I was so disappointed before. I thought i would miss these opportunities for nothing, but I still got them in the end!”

He laughed like a villain in a movie. “My candy! My dear candy! Moon Goddess,

I love Lily to death. I wish she were my biological sister!”

I rolled my eyes at him and said, “First of all, Lily can’t be your biological sister. Second, you can’t love Lily to death. Finally, it’s already nighttime. You know you shouldn’t eat any candy.”

Heller looked at me with a weird look as he revealed a mean smile. After that, his gaze moved to his precious soft candies.

“I’m not going to eat any of them. These precious mementos should be preserved. I want to make a display frame for them!”

“But they are sugar. They will go bad sooner or later if you don’t eat them.” The materials used for the soft sweets were unique. There were no preserving agents added. 1 saw on the packaging that they only have a short shelf life of fifteen days.

Heller said while shaking his head proudly, “This is not a problem. 1 can ask Aunt Dorothy for help. She is proficient in witchcraft. Embalming witchcraft is just a piece of cake.”

He treasured these candies. I understood that he didn’t only do it for them but also for his trip to the Moonlight Festival, which had been aborted halfway.

I touched the soft hair on his head and pressed it against his forehead. “Actually, you can try them. Silver Moon won’t refuse to provide another set of limited-edition candies. You can even take a suitcase full of candies if you want.”

Heller refused me, smiling like a lamb. “No, Yarin, this is enough for me. The purpose of collecting them is to collect unique experiences and memories. They are already irreplaceable treasures to me.”

We went through the colorful candies together. Their flavors were interesting and puzzling. Other than ‘Morning Clouds’, there were also literary names such as ‘Nightingale Soaring in the Sky’ and ‘The First Leaf of the Rose’.

After careful selection, Heller finally picked up a piece of candy and put it into a crystal cup.

“I want to give this to Lily,” he said.

Seeing how I looked confused, he explained, “This is a thank-you gift. To thank Lily for helping me collect these unique treasures. Lily is an indispensable part of my precious memories. I will give her this little candy as a gift, hoping she will not forget me.”

“What about you? Yarin, we will be leaving soon. We may not see Lily for a long time.. What are you going to give her to commemorate this special connection?”
