Chapter 17 Flowers Make Sounds When They Bloom

Walking into the courtyard, Lilith was truly astonished. Although it was dark, many flowers were already dim and their true colors could not be identified. But they were still stunningly beautiful under the moonlight, and the air was filled with the rich fragrance of mixed flowers. Lilith turned around and wanted to tell Bella that she could pick some to make bookmarks, but when she turned around, she found that Bella had not followed her.

No way... Lilith's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Melissa really arranged a blind date for her?

Lilith looked at the towering yew tree wall in the distance. The maze made of this plant was very interesting and a good pastime for ladies after afternoon tea. However, it looked eerie at night. But when she thought that if she stayed here, the romantic garden might become a tacky blind date corner, she gritted her teeth and stepped into the plant maze.

Lilith walked aimlessly in the maze. She was not in a hurry to find the right way, but chose to follow her heart. As a result, she hit a wall soon and walked into a dead end. Fortunately, in order to take care of the ladies with fragile bodies, this maze placed benches at the end of each road for them to rest during the game. Lilith walked over and happily collapsed on the bench under the moonlight. The high tree wall blocked everyone's prying eyes. Lilith felt unusually relaxed at this time. She adjusted a very unladylike posture and closed her eyes to rest.

"Susu-"

Someone! Children have very sharp hearing. Lilith quickly opened her eyes and adjusted her sitting position.

But there was no one in front of her. She listened carefully and found that there was someone standing on the wall between her and her. He seemed to be bored and was fiddling with the leaves on the maze tree wall with his hands.

The rustling sound passed forward, and the person seemed to be walking away. Lilith breathed a sigh of relief, and her tense body relaxed. But suddenly she saw a slender shadow appear at the intersection of her road.

A long leg came into Lilith's sight, and a man in formal attire slowly approached in the moonlight.

Lilith quietly watched the man in the darkness. He was wearing a black shirt and black pants. His curly black hair had grown to his neck and was casually tucked behind his ears. Perhaps he hadn't had his clothes tailored for a long time, so his dress was a little loose, not as straight and well-fitting as those gentlemen in the banquet hall. Although the visibility in the maze was poor, the moonlight could still show the man's high nose bridge and deep eyebrows. He walked up to her, and instead of starting with the weather or scenery like other gentlemen, he opened his mouth directly: "Lilith."

"........."

Now Lilith couldn't pretend to be a guest anymore, so she could only greet him directly, "Good evening, sir."

The man seemed to be in a very good mood. Lilith carefully identified him in the moonlight and confirmed that this beautiful pair of eyebrows and eyes should not have appeared in the banquet just now, otherwise she, a beauty lover, would definitely have remembered him.

"Did you just arrive? You've worked hard. The dinner isn't over yet. You can go have a drink with mother and enjoy the food." Lilith acted like the eldest daughter and warmly entertained the guest.

The man smiled and walked forward without stopping. He walked straight in and sat on the bench where Lilith was. "It's true that I just arrived, but I'm not interested in banquets or anything like that. I'm only here for you, Lilith." He turned his head and looked at Lilith intently.

"..." Lilith was stunned by these direct and somewhat offensive words. She looked at the black-haired man in front of her with a smile on his face. Surrounded by the strange aura on his body, Lilith moved to the side of the bench a little uncomfortably. She held the small shell in her hand, clenching it repeatedly, like a stress-relieving toy.

Unexpectedly, the man had excellent vision in the dark. He glanced down and praised, "Very beautiful shells. This color is very rare. Did you buy it from a traveling merchant?"

"...No, it was given to me by a seaman during my travels." Lilith answered honestly. Tonight was the time for confession.

Unexpectedly, the other party's expression did not change at all when he heard Haimin's words, and he still smiled and said, "That's really lucky."

Lilith was stunned. She had not expected the other party to be so nonchalant. "Ms. Ram, is your information accurate? Didn't everyone say that they hated to be involved with the Sea People?" Lilith wailed silently in her heart.

The atmosphere was awkward for a moment. Lilith hadn't yet organized a new round of words and rejection, so she had to lower her head and pretend to be busy, adjusting her skirt.

The man crossed his legs and changed to a more comfortable position. "Don't you want to talk to me, Lilith? Your mother said you are an interesting girl."

Lilith's skirt was almost torn by her. She turned around and boldly glanced at the mysterious man in front of her, only to find that he was looking at her with his head tilted and his chin in his hand. The distance was so close that it was a bit ambiguous. Only then did Lilith realize that he had a pair of emerald green eyes, shining brightly under the night light...

Lilith shuddered and quickly persuaded herself to calm down. No, Lilith, haven't you suffered enough because of being a face dog? Your cheap dad is also very good-looking, but look at the kind of men your two mothers found. How can you repeat their old path...

"Sir..." Lilith hesitated for a few times, but finally mustered up the courage to speak: "Your age... is too old for me..."

The man in front of her was actually of unknown age. Lilith couldn't tell what age he was. He looked very young, and his gestures were casual and even frivolous, but his eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, and there was a sense of maturity that had been polished by the years. Lilith couldn't guess, but no matter what kind of person he was, he was a little old for the 12-year-old Lilith. When she reached the right age to get married, wouldn't he be an old girl? This was not okay, and Lilith, who was obsessed with beauty, declined.

"Hehe..." Unexpectedly, the man didn't seem to feel dissatisfied or embarrassed after hearing this. Instead, he seemed to have heard something interesting and took Lilith's hand...

Lilith: “…………!” The man below! Ahhhhh!

"This shell would be a great choice for a bracelet or hairpin, wouldn't it?" The man held up the pink and blue shell in his hand and examined it carefully in the moonlight.

Eh?! Lilith was startled. When did this person take the shell from her hand?

"...That's what I was planning to do, but my family has been too busy lately. I haven't had time to find a craftsman to drill the holes." Lilith said, picking at her fingers.

"The Yetan you are looking for is just ahead. I'll take you there." The man stood up and turned Lilith's beloved little shell with his fingertips, motioning her to follow.

Although they were in a maze, the man walked around as if he was at home. Lilith followed him suspiciously through the maze, wondering if he was a gardener or a businessman. Then she heard the sound of running water.

In the blink of an eye, the view suddenly became wider. It turned out that they had really walked to the fountain in the center of the maze. The marble-carved goldfish jumped high, and the spring water poured out of the fish's mouth, and the cycle continued.

"Right here." The man stopped and turned back to smile at Lilith.

She then noticed that the fountain was decorated with layers of flowers. She walked forward and carefully identified which one was the nightshade.

"It's this..." A magnetic voice suddenly sounded next to Lilith's ear, scaring her so much that she jumped three steps.

The man seemed not to notice, he bent down, picked up a pot of flowers, and placed it on the stone platform at the edge of the fountain. "But this little guy only blooms at midnight, it's not the right time yet." He turned his head and looked at Lilith and blinked, "I do have a good way to wake it up in advance, do you want to learn it?"

Lilith nodded in agreement. It was better to have something to do than to be in such an awkward situation like now.

The man looked at her and slowly recited a sentence in a language that Lilith had never heard before. It was very rhythmic, like poetry, but also like some foreign slang. He motioned for Lilith to repeat it.

Lilith repeated it three times before she finally read it fluently. The man grabbed Lilith's hand again.

Lilith: "…………" Just talk, why do you keep touching my hand, big brother! But this time, before Lilith could pull back, he put Lilith's little hand on the flower branch of the night lily and immediately let go. He turned around and smiled at Lilith, "Do it again."

The emerald green eyes stared at Lilith, with a hint of innocence and charm. She was almost mesmerized. She nodded obediently as if bewitched, looking into his blue eyes and reciting the meaningless words obediently.

The next second, she heard the secret sound of the flower bud bursting.

Lilith turned her head and saw several flower buds on the pot of nightshade. They had been wilting and hiding in the green leaves before, but now they were scrambling to get out of the cover and blooming beside Lilith's hand. No, not just this pot. In other pots piled here, the delicate flowers had closed at night, but now they were ready to move again, opening their buds in her direction. Lilith took a silent breath, shocked by the unnatural phenomenon before her eyes.

"Earl Taylor is right. You are indeed an interesting child." The black-haired man looked at the scenery in front of him and nodded with satisfaction. His smile finally had some reality. He picked a nightshade, smelled it intoxicatedly, and then turned to Lilith.

"Are you interested in learning magic, Lilith? Would you like to know more about the Goletia School of Magic?"
