Chapter 1078: Chapter 1078: Gifts and Letter
"I’m sorry, did I hurt you?"
Hannah shook her head, "It’s okay."
The somewhat subdued voice was slightly husky and soft, causing the girl to take another look involuntarily.
Her impatient friend was already tugging her to leave.
"Um..." Just as Hannah was about to turn away, she suddenly saw the bag the girl was holding and asked another question, "What’s this?"
The girl looked down and, somewhat embarrassed, began to smile, "These are stars that I folded myself, exactly one thousand of them, in a bottle, ready to be given to Hannah."
Compared to some fans’ gifts worth thousands or tens of thousands, she thought her present wasn’t much to show off.
But she had heard as a child that if you fold a thousand stars, you could make a wish.
If she gave this to Hannah, it seemed like a nice idea.
Maybe outsiders couldn’t understand why they liked a "stranger" so much.
But for her, Hannah was like the brightest star in the sky.
Though untouchable, just one glance could lift her spirits when feeling down.
She placed her little bit of hope on that star, wishing that one day it could reach even higher and farther places.
By now, her friend was urging her, "Alright, what are you telling all this to a stranger for, let’s go."
The girl smiled apologetically at Hannah and turned to leave.
After only a few steps, as Hannah was about to speak, someone else beat her to it and stopped them.
"Wait." Roy Yarn had run over, his cheeks still abnormally flushed as he said to the girl holding the bag, "You might not get to see Hannah if you go now, give the gift to me, and I will pass it on to her."
The girl hesitated.
Her friend, on the other hand, was very excited and grabbed Roy Yarn’s sleeve, "You’re Roy Yarn, right? The violinist Roy Yarn, the Violin Prince!"
Roy Yarn nodded and took a step back to create some distance from the girl.
Others’ excessive enthusiasm still made him feel slightly uncomfortable.
Luckily, the girl didn’t seem to notice and was just excitedly pulling Roy Yarn for autographs and pictures, as if she wanted the whole world to know she had run into Roy Yarn that day.
However, there was one upside to being recognized—at long last, the girl no longer hesitated to hand over the gift she had been holding to Roy Yarn. She added a worried reminder, "You must remember to give it to Hannah."
Roy Yarn nodded, "Don’t worry, I will."
After the two girls left, Roy Yarn then turned back and handed the object in his hand to Hannah.
Taking the item, Hannah looked at him, "How did you recognize me?"
Roy Yarn smiled, "I recognized you the moment you walked over."
They walked side by side down the path.
Ginkgo trees were planted along both sides of the road, and this season was when they were most lush.
Although they didn’t display the spectacular golden hue of autumn, the deep green leaves draped together, falling occasionally with the wind, forming a different kind of beauty from afar.
Hannah carefully took out half of the glass bottle from the bag, where the stars were lined up in the order of rainbow colors.
Accompanying the gift was also a letter.
——To the prettiest, most beautiful, and loveliest Hannah in the whole world, I heard that wishing upon a thousand folded stars can make a wish come true! But I didn’t make one, because I wanted to give that wish to you...
