Shen Wan quietly gazed at the confusion on Shi Nian's face, then asked as naturally as possible, "So... Nian Nian, do you believe such things truly exist?"
"I do!"
Shi Nian answered without hesitation, even quietly clenching her fist to emphasize her belief, pressing her fist onto the table.
Shen Wan smiled, "Since you believe so... Nian Nian, did you perhaps experience something similar yourself?"
Shen Wan subtly approached her heart again... Shi Nian took a deep breath, instinctively on guard, "That's not what I meant. I just said, I believe."
"Oh." Shen Wan could only step back, lowering her head with a gentle frown.
Both immersed in their own thoughts, the scene momentarily fell silent. Shen Wan was the first to recover, smiling, "As this is our first meeting, as an elder I didn't bring an appropriate gift. Earlier I noticed you seemed to really like the set of signed books Mr. Cha gifted... might as well give them to you. Nian Nian, you must accept it."
