Traveling back to Zhen Feng's residence, a couple of people inside the carriage sat in silence, each consumed with their own thoughts.
Lin Mei lazily perched on the window to look outside. Because it was already so dark, she wasn't able to watch the beautiful scenery along the way as she had done on their journey to the town. Nevertheless, the cool breeze brushing softly against her cheeks was pleasant and distracted her from darker thoughts. It was already late autumn and the humidity in the air together with the short periods of rain brought out the fragrances of the damp soil and wet leaves. All of these scents were still unfamiliar to Lin Mei yet she found them strangely enjoyable.
