Lakshmi, the goddess of beauty and happiness in Brahmanism and Hinduism, was born as a rose bud consisting of 108 large petals and 1008 small petals.

Because the nightingale fell in love with the newly appointed Gao Queen at first sight and hugged the beautiful Gao Queen with ecstasy, the spike suddenly pierced his heart, and deep red blood gushed from his chest, dyeing the rose petals red, so the outer petals of the white rose still retained the pink hue.
