A few days after the celebration, Arya and Anne were in their room, poring over the couple's necklace they had bought at a girls' day stall.

"This four-leaf clover-shaped necklace is so beautiful, and the pink color is perfect for you, Arya!" Anne complimented Arya as she wore the pink necklace around her neck.

"Thank you, Annie! This blue necklace also suits Percival, so I'll have to find a chance to give it to him alone. Arya hid the necklace under her collar, put the blue necklace in a small box, put it in a drawer, and looked at Anne cheerfully: "Then let's go out together!" ”

"Arya, we... Is it OK to go to Shanta Loye Boulevard? Anne lowered her head and whispered a question to her, her cheeks reddening slightly.

"Oh? Yes, what are you going to buy? Arya pulled out her new pink money bag with strawberries and white rabbits printed on it from the wooden cabinet beside the bedside.

"No, it's... Be... Mr. Allen, he ...... "At the mention of the name, Anne was too shy to speak again.

"Uh-oh! That's right! Two days ago, I heard that the magician Alan Jacente was coming here, and it was said that he was going to put on a show in Cross City this year. But it's a little strange.,He used to come here in the second half of the year.,Why did he come early this year...? Seeing that you are in such a hurry, is he here today? Arya walked up to her and asked, and Anne just nodded.

"Then let's go, before we meet him, do you want to buy him any greeting gifts? Can I help you pay? Arya raised an eyebrow and asked in a playful tone and expression.

"No, I've been ready, you see—" said Anne, pulling out a small, elegant-looking cyan box from her pocket, and when she opened it, Arya found a gold brooch encrusted with cyan gems on the white velvet cushion inside.

"This! Isn't this the brooch you wanted to buy and give to Jester a long time ago!? I remember you looked outside the window for a long time because you didn't have enough money, how did you buy it? Arya looked up at Anne with a look of surprise.

"I saved enough for half a year's salary, and I only went to the store yesterday to buy it, and I'm really grateful to the owner for helping me keep it." Anne closed the lid, a happy smile on her face.

"You didn't tell me, if you did, I could help you......" Arya pulled the corner of Anne's skirt a little aggrieved, seeing her like this, Anne was slightly stunned for a moment, and then put the brooch in her pocket and gently held Arya's hands.

"Arya, because we're friends, I won't tell you. I don't feel like I'm the Earl's daughter, I have the right to ask you for money at any time, I want to be your lifelong friend, a true and trusting friend. So, you don't have to worry about me, even if I don't get it in the end, I will definitely not regret it, because I tried my best. Anne's voice was soft, but it revealed an invisible tenacity.

"Annie......" Arya choked up a little, she took Anne's hands tightly, nodded vigorously, and smiled in response.

The two girls rode in a carriage to Chantaloye Avenue in the early morning light of April, and they found a number of ladies and ladies gathered on one of the streets, talking to each other.

"Why are there so many girls standing here, isn't Girls' Day over?" Arya blinked curiously when she saw the scene in the carriage.

"I guess they're because of that, you look across the street." Anne smiled and nodded across the street with the tip of her finger.

Stretching her head in the direction of Anne's finger and discovering that it was Percival, Arya instantly came to her senses! He stood straight under the conifer across the street, his expression meticulous, as if he was waiting for something. In her mind, it seemed as if it was the first time Parcival had gone out alone, or in such a luxurious location with constant crowds.

When the carriage reached a gift shop, the two girls jumped out of the carriage, and Arya stood behind the girls, tilting her head and asking Anne, "What is Percival doing there?" It looks like he's working, so let's not bother him, right? ”

"Did you hear that!? Count Jacent's son is going to Cross City later! ”

"I found out the other day! No wonder Sir Perseus was here this morning, waiting to meet him? ”

"I've seen his magic show and it's amazing! Unforgettable! He is also handsome, ah, I really want to see him soon! ”

"The thought of two young talents meeting here makes my heart pound!"

Without waiting for Anne to answer, Arya received an answer from the eager whispers of the young ladies. Hearing your conversation like this will make the heart of the magician and Percival pound! How can there be a blockage here in the morning to peek at people's homes! Arya twitched her eyebrows and muttered to herself with a look of displeasure.

Then she looked at Anne, who responded with a wry smile, saying that she couldn't do anything about it.

Suddenly, everyone heard the sound of the wheels of a carriage coming from far and near, and the ladies all stood on tiptoe with joy, and Aria and Anne saw through the gap in the crowd a blue noble carriage drawn by two white horses, painted with graceful and elegant golden patterns.

The carriage stopped in front of Percival, and a figure jumped out of it.

The beautiful mid-length hair on the back of the head glowed softly in the warm sun, and two strands of sideburns hung down behind his ears, revealing his whole softly contoured melon seed face; The green eyes are bright and bright, and there is a relaxed smile on his face.

He wore a matching turquoise gown with gold trim on the cuffs and trousers, a black bow at the collar of a white shirt, and a stand-up collar cloak in a blue gradient, which was also trimmed with gold.

"Long time no see, Pat!" The young man stood in front of Percival and greeted him warmly. This young man, who looked about the same age as Percival, had a very different voice from Percival, whose timbre was higher and clearer, but his tone of voice was lively and gentle.

"Long time no see, Alan!" A smile instantly appeared on Parcival's face, and his right hand was raised in front of him in a fist.

"I've read both of the letters you sent me. The first one criticized me to the fullest because of Pique's affairs; The second letter asks me to come here to help you, you're a real headache for me, and when I received the second letter, I was performing in another city! The young man named Allen also stretched out his fist and had a pleasant two-fist collision with Percival.

"But here you are, my old friend." Parcival crossed his hip with one hand, smiling and chatting with his best friend.

"Isn't that right? As soon as I finished the show, I hurried over here! You were able to steal the Captain's Banner from Rosemary, you are a great man, Pat. Alan said humorously by tapping Percival's silver armor a few times with his black magic staff.

"It's my fault, but I really need your help, Alan." Percival replied to his friend's words.

Need Ellen's help!? Could it be about Rosemary!? The onlookers began to whisper, and when they heard the whispering, a faint cloud rose in the hearts of Arya and Anne.

"Okay, it seems that you're in a lot of trouble, so I'll push off the later performances and stay to help you." Alan said as he danced his cane lightly and spun in circles.

"Thank you, Alan, then go to my manor, and I'll talk to you again when I get back to the manor."

"Absolutely."

Seeing that they were leaving, Arya and Anne looked at each other and nodded, and Arya deliberately shouted Percival's name in the back: "Sir Percival!" ”

Everyone turned their heads when they heard the voice, and when they saw that it was Arya, they all smiled and lifted their skirts, automatically making way for them, and seeing that Arya was walking towards this side, Percival's originally silent eyes also shone brightly, and he looked at Arya in front of him with a light smile: "Hello, Miss Arya!" ”

"Hello, Sir Percival, is this your friend to be able to meet you here?" Arya turned her gaze to Alan.

"Yes, he's—"

"Ah, you are the Count of Dushante, and the winner of this year's Cross-City Rosé Contest, Miss Arya Dushante! First time meeting, I'm touring magician Alan Jacent, nice to meet you! You are as cute and coquettish as he says. Before Percival could finish speaking, Alan stepped forward, one hand behind his back, and bowed slightly to Arya.

But, cute and coquettish......?! Arya felt goosebumps fall to the ground, Anne stood behind and forced a smile, while Percival pursed her lips with a "my best friend is a little flamboyant, I beg your pardon", and the ladies behind her were envious of Alan's compliment.

"Thank you, Mr. Jacente. This is my female companion Anne, who is your admirer and has wanted to see you for a long time. Arya hurriedly stepped out of the way and let Anne walk over to her.

"Mr. Allen, I... I am your admirer, and when I heard that you were coming, I had prepared a small gift for you to give to your face—" Anne blushed and held the little box in front of him.

"Oh! Thank you, Miss Anne, can I open it and take a look? Alan asked as he handed the wand to Percival and took the box with both hands.

"Absolutely!" With Anne's permission, Alan opened the box and saw the delicate brooch.

"What a beautiful brooch! It looks like it's going to cost a lot of money! Allen's eyes lit up as he looked at Anne.

"Yes... I saved up half a year's salary to buy it, and I think you'll like it......" Anne replied timidly and softly, causing praise from the ladies around her for Anne's perseverance, and causing Ellen's eyes to widen slightly.

"Thank you so much for your support and love for me, Miss Anne! I have no way to reciprocate, and I may allow you to kiss your hand full of the fruits of your diligence. Alan put away the small box, took Anne's right hand with his left hand, bent down, and gave Anne a gentle kiss on her fingertips.

The kiss provoked the ladies and some of the gentlemen to exclaim with joy, and Anne blushed even more. YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY Arya stood on one side with a full face in the spring, and her heart had begun to jump up and down, screaming wildly; Parcival held his cane in both hands, a helpless wry smile on his face.

"Then, two young ladies, we still have to deal with some work matters, so we will be out of company first." Percival walked up to them and spoke, shoehorning his wand into Alan's hand without looking back.

"In other words, I can't find you today, right?" Arya asked tentatively.

"Yes, I'm sorry." Parcival bowed to her slightly.

"It's okay, we can understand, then in two days, let's visit again." Arya said with a smile on her hands.

"Yes, then let's go first, have a nice day." Percival stepped onto his horse and stood guard beside the carriage, and together they made their way in the direction of the manor.

"Oh yes, is Pique okay? I really didn't expect that boy to be so brave......"

"He's hanging out with the other kids today, and Peake is now my boy, and you're going to have to apologize to him when he comes back, you know, Alan? You haven't changed at all, and you're still so thoughtless. ”

"Okay, okay, don't preach to me, I know it's wrong......"

As they drifted away, the crowd slowly dispersed.

"I've never seen Percival smile like this, it's nice to have friends around, right, Annie?" Arya turned her head to look at Anne and found her still hanging her head, holding the kissed fingertips into her own world.
