The greatest master, Feng Yun, was kind to others and set an example from the top down; there was no backstabbing or deceit. The time Kong Yun'e spent here was the most comfortable she had ever had.
It was also here that she discovered women could live in a different way.
Like Wen Hui, Ying Rong, like Nan Kui and Chai Ying...
Like her now.
Feng Yun was not one to take advantage of others. After receiving a gold bracelet, she immediately opened her own jewelry box and gestured to Kong Yun'e.
"Pick whatever you like."
How could Kong Yun'e dare to accept?
Without further discussion, Feng Yun chose a delicately crafted hairpin and inserted it into her hair.
"It looks nice. It's perfect to wear for the New Year, very festive."
Kong Yun'e's eyes welled up with emotion, and she smiled, touching her hair by her temples.
"Thank you, Lady Yun."
