Every day was filled with anticipation.
After hanging up the phone, Jane Sampson removed her makeup and followed James Carter barefaced to the dining hall that he and John Young had agreed upon.
Springtown is the most representative city of the southland, so naturally, the dining hall that James Carter chose was also the most famous southern cuisine restaurant in the local area. When the car stopped at the doorway, Jane couldn't help but take a few extra glances at the building's facade.
It looked like the siheyuan courtyards of Capital Province, but it was built up from gray stones, one upon another. The wooden eaves resembled swallowtails, a design seen in many cities in the south.
"Do you like this kind of architecture?" James Carter asked, noticing how intently Jane was looking.
"I love it! It's so beautiful! I have a thing for buildings with a sense of age, they look like they have stories to tell." Jane smiled and nodded.
