The night in the countryside was silent and cool.
The night wind lifted the curtains, swelling them high one moment, then gently letting them fall the next, fluttering in the breeze.
After Chi Yue finished her bath and dried her hair, she noticed Qiao Dongyang hadn't come in and was about to close the window when she suddenly stopped.
A shadow slowly crossed the backyard, passing by the flower saplings she had just carefully planted, and sat down on the chair by the pond.
Chi Yue stood behind the window for a moment, then picked up a jacket and went outside.
There was nobody in the living room.
It was quiet.
Chi Yue glanced at Dong Shan's room and opened the main door to go out.
Her steps were small, light, and slow, careful not to disturb Qiao Dongyang.
