She had attended a banquet in Perseta only once, but no lady had ever spread so many pearls like this. It was an outstanding work created with very detailed and precise craftsmanship.
“Do you like it?”
Ru nodded her head unknowingly. Hayden’s expression noticeably brightened.
“There are many protective spells on it. If you wear it along with the ones I gave you, the magic will be even stronger. I also made it to have a positive effect on curses. It will gradually increase the speed at which it naturally improves.”
“Can I accept this?”
“It’s the symbol of the Southern Sage, so it’s only natural.”
Ru lifted her head. The symbol of the Southern Sage?
“Is this, by any chance, that long pearl belt or necklace that I brought back from infiltrating the Katart Imperial Palace treasure vault last time? The one with a large emerald in the middle?”
“Yeah. I turned that emerald into a bracelet for you. It’s hard to find such a big emerald.”
“…I had a feeling.”
Hayden laughed after hearing her response.
“It’s all yours. Right now, it’s a headpiece, but you can take it off and reuse it. I’ll make something new for you whenever the wizard allows.”
“No, this alone seems like more than enough, Your Majesty.”
“There’s still a lot of pearls left in a big pouch.”
“But the diamonds here don’t seem to be related to the Southern Sage, Your Majesty.”
Ru murmured, glancing at the excessively sparkling headpiece in the sunlight.
It was a sophisticated decoration that perfectly matched her taste for beautiful and glamorous things. It was a dignified jewel that, if others envied, would make her proud, and if stolen, would make her very angry. She liked the precious pearls that divers had to go into the water to retrieve one by one.
“That represents my feelings for the Southern Sage. Don’t feel burdened, just take it. After all, I won’t be the only one giving you things.”
It was only natural for beautiful ladies to receive various jewelry gifts and flowers.
“I’ve never received anything from an unknown gentleman until now.”
“Just accept it because more will be poured on you. Since you’ve only attended one banquet so far, there will be many guys eyeing you from the next one.”
Therefore, Hayden decided to decorate her with even more pearls. If Eastern nobles valued pearls more than diamonds, then a Western noble with more pearls than them would be even more distinguished, and he could not express his intention to anyone.
“There are many people at the Chosun Factory who have seen you. Rumors are already spreading about a new Southern Sage or wizard. And the local media here is never friendly to me, so they will try to dig out and write articles more competitively by hiding it.”
So rumors about Ru would continue to appear in the form of articles.
“Since you’ll be tired at the banquet, stick close to me.”
“I’m not sure about that, but, um, thank you for this.”
Ru said a little awkwardly but straightforwardly, and Hayden widened his eyes slightly.
“I really, really like it. I like it so much that I don’t want to refuse.”
Surprised, he didn’t reply but instead laughed brightly like a boy.

Feng Bai Su transmigrated into a matriarchal novel, becoming the sister of the female protagonist and the Seventh Princess of the Feng Ling Kingdom.

Wei Jing Mo is the top young man in Feng Ling City, talented in both appearance and ability, from a prestigious family, with a cold and otherworldly appearance, a figure like the bright moon in the hearts of noble ladies. It was thought that only the most powerful and talented noble lady in Feng Ling City would be worthy of such a brilliant young man. Who knew that this young gentleman would secretly admire the infamous Seventh Princess?
Short scene 1:
Feng Bai Su looked at the young man crying like a pear blossom in the rain before her, and couldn’t help but doubt her life.
Wasn’t the male lead described as a cold and otherworldly figure in the book?
Then who was this poor little thing crying with swollen red eyes and tear-stained face?
Short scene 2:
Wei Jing Mo stared intently at Feng Bai Su who was about to go out, wanting to say, “Be careful on the road.”
Before he could speak, Feng Bai Su suddenly bent down and bit his cheek.
Her peach blossom eyes were full of disdain: “Tsk! You’re so clingy!”
Wei Jing Mo: “…”
