The young man laughed as he flicked open his hand fan. The paper fan was decorated with a watercolor painting of a mountain range.
Athena peeked through her hands. She knew if she still wanted to continue their conversation, she would need to find another topic. It also did not take long for Zicheng to notice she was looking at his paper fan.
"Do you like it?' He asked.
"It's beautiful," She remarked as she reached out to touch it, "May I take a closer look?"
"Of course, here."
He handed it to her. Athena admired the brush strokes of the mountain range. She noticed there was a line of foreign characters on the side, as well as a red ink stamp.
Upon closer inspection, she realized something.
"You drew this?" She asked in disbelief.
"Keen observation. Yes, I did," He replied with a proud smile.
"That's amazing! It's so intricate. Is this a place from your hometown?"
