The large black gem in the middle was surrounded by other gems, resembling stars orbiting a moon.
Moreover, Ruan Shu felt that the black gem was different from the others.
How should I put it?
The other gems were transparent and clear like glass, but the black one was very pure and completely opaque.
But it emitted a different kind of luster, very beautiful.
Ruan Shu's finger touched the black gem, and she felt a sense of familiarity.
But why did Alm send her a bracelet? Is it attractive?
She yawned and was about to go to sleep, not sure where she had wandered all day, when a blackberry vine climbed in through the window.
The vine twisted and turned, trying to reach Ruan Shu on the bed, but she caught it in the act.
Ruan Shu pinched the vine, noticing that its color seemed lighter.
She found a clean towel and wiped the wine before tossing it onto the bed.
"I want to sleep, so be a good boy and don't cause trouble," she said.
As she lay down with a yawn, the vine, which had crawled to her wrist, suddenly bristled with anger.
One end of the vine was tugging at the bracelet on her wrist, while the other end was angrily slapping the bed.
What an ugly thing was trying to dominate its territory!
The vine tugged at her wrist, causing her some pain, and she held onto it with her other hand.
"There's another hand here, be good," she coaxed softly, but the vine was stubborn and determined to remove the bracelet from her wrist.
It wasn't about being petty, but the strong smell of the dragon on the bracelet was too noticeable, prompting the urge to address the issue with the bracelet.
However, no matter what the vine tried, it couldn't remove the bracelet.
Frustrated, it snapped up and then suddenly disappeared.
Ruan Shu: "???"
Ruan Shu: "!"!"!"
Where did it go?
She searched the bed thoroughly but couldn't find the vine.
The vine had disappeared in front of her eyes!
Upon looking at the bracelet, she suddenly recalled the spatial displacement that Alm had demonstrated to her earlier.
She tentatively probed her spiritual power into the bracelet.
The next moment, the vine appeared, looking miserable and collapsed on the bed.
Before it could get up, a cascade of exquisite gems and pearls rained down, striking the vine with precision and burying it in a small grave.
Ruan Shu: "..."
Why are there so many things?
No, more importantly, Alm gave her a space bracelet!
"This can't be." "I have to return it tomorrow."
Why did he give her such a valuable thing without saying anything?
The vine struggled to pull itself out from the pile of shimmering gemstones.
These gemstones also carried the scent of the dragon!
The vine, enraged, wrapped itself around a gemstone and threw it away. But it used too much force, causing the gemstone to rebound and hit it.
The wilted vine (╥﹏╥)
Why was it always the unlucky one?
Ruan Shu turned her head and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
The vine lay dejectedly next to the gemstones. Don't ask; it just wanted to be alone.
Ruan Shu picked up the gemstone and placed it by the pillow. He then pondered how to collect more gemstones.
She found that as long as her hands touched them, she could easily retrieve the objects with a single thought.
Struggling to remove the bracelet, she discovered that she couldn't take it off.
Fine, time to sleep.
She yawned and fell asleep almost as soon as her head touched the pillow.
The nearby vine was furious, wondering how she could fall asleep so quickly!
It reluctantly crawled to Ruan Shu's other wrist and couldn't help but tug at the bracelet again.
The shameless dragon embedded its scales into this object, transforming it into a bracelet for her young master. Who was provoking whom?
Perhaps she was just too tired yesterday; Ruan Shu slept very soundly. She didn't even get up for breakfast.
When she woke up, only her grandfather and the butler were left in the house.
After lunch, Ruan Shu wanted to find Alm.
Ruan He asked, "How can you find His Majesty?" "Didn't you spend the whole day with him yesterday?"
The tone carried an undeniable sense of sourness, as if her own precious little cabbage was about to be abducted.
Ruan Shu lightly waved the bracelet on her wrist. The silver bracelet, adorned with beautiful gems, elegantly encircled her soft and fair wrist, enhancing its allure.
In a coaxing tone, Ruan Shu explained to her grandfather, "Alm gave me a space bracelet, and I want to return it to him."
Ruan He: "..."
Ruan He looked at the bracelet and gasped.
"How could he have given you this!"
Ruan Shu innocently and somewhat bewilderedly looked at the bracelet, "What's wrong with this bracelet"?"
Ruan He got up in a hurry and paced back and forth, cursing Alm and saying countless bad things about him.
"This bracelet was worn by him when he was a child!"
Ruan Shu: "What?""??"
"This bracelet has historical significance." It has been passed down to the children of the dragon race. I just knew it. Is that dog? No! His Majesty has ulterior motives. He wants to take you back to be his daughter. He's just a little brat himself and already wants a daughter. If he is capable, he should have his own instead of abducting ours!
Ruan He was furious. He felt increasingly uncomfortable looking at the bracelet, but no one else could remove it except Alm, who had placed it on Ruan Shu.
Even if Ruan Shu transformed into a small cat, the bracelet would instantly change into a beautiful choker for her neck.
"Come on, let's find Alm and make him take it off." We don't want this. I will find you a space bracelet. I promise to find one even more beautiful than this. I noticed that you had the scent of a dragon when you came back yesterday. "I thought it was the breath of His Majesty when you spent the whole day with him, and it turns out it was this!"
Pointing at the bracelet, he huffed, "The black gem in the bracelet is the first dragon scale he shed after hatching." It will be polished by the elders and embedded in the bracelet. "It will only be removed and embedded with the first dragon scale shed by the new owner when it is passed on to the next generation."
Ruan Shu looked at the black "gem," and suddenly realized that it was Alm's dragon scale.
Then she felt strange, probably experiencing the odd sensation of "I regard you as a brother, but you want to be my father."
Looking back, Alm had indeed been very kind to her, which was why he always enjoyed feeding her during meals.
