At night, Xiao Mo sat in the courtyard, flipping through a book.
The flickering candlelight mingled with the soft glow of the moon, falling upon the pages in Xiao Mo's hands.
Bai Ruxue sat beside Xiao Mo, making shoes, her expression serious with every stitch.
But unlike the ordinary shoes Bai Ruxue had made for Xiao Mo in their past life, these were different.
This pair of shoes was being crafted from Heavenly and Earthly Treasures that Bai Ruxue had brought from the North Sea.
Once finished, the shoes would be on par with a Second-Grade Magical Treasure.
Well past ten, Xiao Mo looked up at the night sky. "Ruxue, I'm heading to bed. You should get some rest soon, too."
"Mhm, I'll just finish these last few stitches." Bai Ruxue nodded, continuing to diligently embroider the Purple Sunflower on the shoe.
"You can finish it tomorrow. There's no rush. Besides, we can just buy shoes in town. You don't have to go to all this trouble," Xiao Mo said.
