In the garden.

“You and the First Prince are clearly in love,” Hua Ruoling said in confusion. “Why did a princess suddenly come in? You still want to give jewelry and curry favor with that Princess Consort. Do you want to be the First Prince’s concubine?”

“Shh…” Bonita lowered her voice, her breathing weak. “I didn’t curry favor with the Princess Consort. 1 donated it to auction at the charity banquet.”

“Hmph!” Hua Ruoling snorted. “You’re so kind-hearted. She’s already snatched your boyfriend, and you’re still giving her things.”

“The Princess Consort is beautiful and kind. I can’t compare to her.” Bonita lowered her head and rubbed the box in her hand. She bit her lip and said, “As long as 1 can see Brother Ryan happy, 1’11 be satisfied.”

Hua Ruoling rolled her eyes. She felt that this person was too silly.

If she was Duke Kasse’s daughter, she would definitely hold the First Prince’s heart tightly.

That was the Prince of A Country, the heir to the throne!

If she married him, she would be the princess of A Country in the future!

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Hua Ruoling and Bonita stood up to welcome the First Prince and the Princess Consort.

“Mr. Tao?” When Bonita saw that it was Tao Boli, she smiled faintly and said, “Hello, Mr. Tao.”

“So it’s Miss Kasse.” Tao Boli nodded slightly and looked at the other person. “This is?”

“She’s my good friend from school, Hua Ruoling. 1 think she and the princess are both Chinese, so they might have something in common. Ruoling, he’s Brother Ryan’s teacher, the Duke personally conferred by the Queen, Teacher Tao,” Bonita introduced.

When Hua Ruoling heard the word ‘teacher’, she did not take it to heart.

When she heard that Tao Boli was a duke personally conferred by the Queen, she calmed down and smiled. “Hello, Mr. Tao. Are you also from China?”

“I studied in A Country and settled here later.” Tao Boli nodded and thought of Hua Ruoling’s name. “Your name is very nice.”

“My mother named me. My mother’s name sounds better. Her name is Hua Wenyin.”

Tao Boli was stunned. “You…”

“Brother Ryan!”

Bonita’s voice interrupted their conversation.

Tao Boli calmed down, but he could not help but look at Hua Ruoling.

Hua Wenyin.

This name was too uncommon.

When Shi Xi saw the familiar figure, her eyes were filled with surprise.

She actually saw Hua Ruoling here?

Hua Ruoling also looked at the Princess Consort with the intention of sizing her up. She did not expect it to be Shi Xi.

Bonita’s gaze was fixed on Ryan, her eyes filled with joy.

“Why are you looking for the Princess Consort?” Ryan asked.

“What? Oh, right.” Bonita retracted her gaze in embarrassment and said to Shi Xi, “The charity banquet is in a few days. I want to donate my necklace as an auction item at the charity banquet.”

As she spoke, Bonita opened the box in her hand and showed the necklace.

“This is my eighteenth birthday present. There are a total of eighteen sapphires on it, surrounded by thirty-six diamonds and decorated with seventy-two broken diamonds.” Bonita handed it to Shi Xi. “I hope the Princess Consort will accept it.”

“This is too valuable.” Shi Xi glanced at the necklace. “It’s your birthday present again. Are you really going to donate it?”

“Yes, it’s very important and precious to me, so 1 want to donate it.” Bonita closed the lid and stuffed it into Shi Xi’s hands. “Just accept it!”

Shi Xi looked at Ryan and asked with her eyes if he wanted to accept it.

“Bonita is kind, so you should accept it.” Ryan smiled.

Shi Xi thought to herself that this thing was too precious.

How awkward would it be if no one bought it?
