The tenth gift was a cosmic specimen painting made of ore. It was personally made by Jiang Fei and had a profound meaning.
The eleventh gift was a painting that could change the content of the picture with the change in temperature. Not only was it beautiful, but it was also intuitively practical.
The twelfth gift was a classical hairpin in the shape of a crane. Jiang Fei said in the letter that this was the design manuscript of Lu Zhen’s mother when she was young. He took the manuscript and made it into a finished product. He also mentioned that the necklace that belonged to Lu Zhen that Lu Rou had snatched away was also Lu Zhen’s mother’s favorite design.
Lu Zhen gently stroked the hairpin. It felt unfamiliar and magical.
Although she no longer had any impression of her mother, Lu Zhen could tell from Jiang Fei!s story that her mother loved her very much. She thought of the first miniature scene she’d seen in her room yesterday. In the image, a family of three strolling through the garden. It was so blissful and wonderful.
Lu Zhen held the hairpin tightly and placed it in her heart. Taking a deep breath, she opened the last two gift boxes.
The thirteenth gift was a white dress. When Lu Zhen took the dress out of the gift box, her heart was filled with shock. She had never seen such a beautiful white dress.
The fabric of the dress was of a type she had never seen before. The translucent chiffon was embroidered with complicated patterns with very fine silver thread. Under the light, the surface of the silver thread glowed with a noble and elegant streamer. The entire dress seemed to be woven from moonlight.
Lu Zhen vaguely felt that this dress was definitely more expensive than the cheongsam she had ordered from the cheongsam shop previously. She did not dare to imagine the price of this dress.
She took a deep breath and carefully placed the dress back in the gift box. She opened the envelope.
“Ningning, you’re going to be an adult soon. In my heart, my daughter is the most beautiful little princess in the world. You deserve the most beautiful things in the world.”
The corners of her mouth curled up into a blissful smile. She folded the letter carefully and placed it in the box.
The last gift box contained a pair of crystal high heels. Of course, these high heels were not made of crystal, but the texture was extremely similar to crystal. They were as beautiful as the high heels of a princess in a fairy tale.
The last letter wrote, “Ningning, you’re 18 years old. This is the sign of an adult. I’m happy. I’m happy that you’ve grown up healthily. From a small baby, you’ve become a beautiful girl. In the future, you might have someone you like. No matter what, the excitement and cruelty of this world will slowly unfold in front of you.
“But no matter what you’ve been through outside, please believe this: Daddy will always be your backing. So, child, boldly walk forward. Daddy will stand behind you and watch over you.”
Lu Zhen’s eyes welled up again. Tonight, she received gifts from her father that she had not received in more than ten years. All the regrets and grievances she had felt for more than ten years seemed to have been soothed at this moment, leaving only gratitude and warmth.
So this was what it felt like to have a family? The loneliness and sadness that flowed through her bones vanished in an instant. She felt full of security.
Lu Zhen carefully arranged all the letters and placed them in a box. Then, she closed the lid and solemnly put them away. When she lay on the bed, blissful fatigue surged up bit by bit. Before sleepiness covered her, she suddenly thought of something. She had yet to ask for her father’s contact information!
Her meeting with Jiang Fei was so sudden that she had completely forgotten about it. Although they would meet again tomorrow, Lu Zhen still felt a little regretful. She didn’t seem to be able to say good night to her father tonight.
Lu Zhen lay on the bed and hesitated for a while. She picked up her cell phone and sent Song Jia a message. “Are you asleep? 1 suddenly remembered that I don’t have my father’s contact information. If you’re not asleep yet, can you say goodnight to him for me? Sorry to disturb you.”
After the message was sent, Lu Zhen felt that she had gone overboard, but she felt that Song Jia wouldn’t mind. She had a faint feeling that she had been spoiled by Song Jia. If it were anyone else, she would never have sent a message to them so late at night.
Some complicated thoughts surged in Lu Zhen’s heart, but she did not dwell on them for long because sleepiness overwhelmed her and she quickly fell asleep.
After Lu Zhen fell asleep, the phone screen by the bed suddenly lit up. A message from Song Jia flashed past—”Okay..”
