Her brother, Li Shaohui, had this gift too.
She lifted her hand such that the rat was at her eye level. "Help me out, will you?"
The afternoon sun spilled diagonally onto the surface of the lake.
Meanwhile, Xia Yingluo sipped some floral tea while sitting in her cane chair.
As dusk approached, the sunset slowly unveiled its splendid colors.
A man appeared behind her quietly; it was Wei Lingnan. "You seem to be in a pretty good mood today, did something happen?" He bent over and hugged her from behind.
Xia Yingluo did not look back at him, but there was a pleasantness in her voice. "I think I've fallen for the sunsets here. It's so beautiful, and the breeze is comforting. I don't know if this is an illusion, but the air here seems fresher than out there."
Wei Lingnan smiled. "The man-made scenery here is more perfect than that of the natural world. If you like it, stay a little longer." He bit her ear gently.
