Capítulo 397: Surrender

Sheng Li and Hu Jingguo were in the market. Sheng Li saw a bangle seller and went to him while Hu Jingguo followed him. The Crown Prince found the variety of colored bangles in the basket and asked about the price of one bangle. 

"It is 5 cents," the woman replied. Hu Jingguo leaned closer to Sheng Li's ear to whisper. "You can buy a golden bangle for her, then why are you purchasing this?" The woman kept staring at the two, trying to hear the whisper. 

Sheng Li handed the 5 cents to her and picked the red ceramic bangle. They walked ahead when Hu Jingguo asked him the same question again. "She likes it. When we were in the South-Western Province, she told me that she would prefer to buy bangles from them. So, I bought it," Sheng Li answered, looking at the wide red bangle. He put it inside his pocket. "She did not tell you," he was glad there's something which Hu Jingguo did not know about Lili. However, his smile faded when he heard him.
