The man in purple looked at the man in white. "Did you bring the item?"
The man in white didn't reply. He just looked at the lady, waiting for her answer.
"I have made up my mind. Give him that item."
Feng Tianlan looked at her. Those words came out easily, but she could hear the lady's pain and her disappointment. She was completely heartbroken.
The man white let out a soft "uh-huh" and handed the brocade box to the lady.
She passed it over to the man in purple without even looking at it. "Feng, let me ask you one more time. Between the world and me, which do you choose?"
After a slight hesitation, he took the brocade box. He opened it and peeked within. Inside the box was a green pearl. It was what he wanted. He answered without any hesitation, "The world."
It was an answer she expected. However, it made her heart ache.
