To repay you
"If you're such a stinker, how could you make me carry this huge pile of sweets for so long? I'm not doing it anymore!" Yan Xiangyou stormed in from outside, her face set in a determined expression and her agitated language startling the people in the quiet little cottage.
"Cough, cough", Ming Ruo also felt that she had indeed gone a bit too far. Ever since she came back, this ugly girl had actually been pretty good to her, but for some reason, she always felt a little annoyed when looking at her, especially...when seeing her close to Nan Feng Luo.
"Hey, Ruan Xiao Yu, to repay you, come over and toss the lucky candies together!" Min Ru unexpectedly didn't call her "ugly girl", is this a symbol of peace?
"Lucky Candy?" Ruan Xiao You had been too preoccupied with her dissatisfaction and hadn't noticed the peculiarity of this wooden hut. She carefully looked around and found that it was a very pretty little house, with one wall fixed with numerous small grids, small in size but astonishingly numerous.
"Just come with me," Min said impatiently, "come on."
The old man gave Minruo a yellow oval-shaped candy, with beautiful candy paper in a style they had never seen before. Then he gave Ranyou a green triangular pyramid-shaped candy, slightly different from Minruo's. The one he gave to Nanfeng Luo was a combination of multiple shapes and also had strange patterns.
"Alright," the old man said with a smile, looking at the lucky candies he had distributed to their hands. "These are the candies that the candy tree has chosen for you. You just need to focus on throwing them into these grids. Remember, think of someone you like in your heart. If you don't have someone you like yet, just close your eyes and throw without thinking about anything else."
Ran Xiangyu stood on the far left, Min Ruo in the middle, and Nan Feng Luo on the right. The three of them hesitated for a moment before Min Ruo threw first, her face filled with excitement as she closed her eyes and tossed the lucky candies forward into the countless grids.
