Having spoken, the man at the front walked away briskly.
The other two quickly followed him.

After two more days of busy work, a breeze blew in the scorching dog days.
The wind brought no characteristic sense of stuffiness and suffocation as usual, but rather, a slight coolness that made people feel comfortable.
Zhuang Qingning, riding in the carriage at this moment, didn't feel hot at all.
Ding Gaochang was also quite pleased with today's coolness. After all, if it were hot and he would be sweaty, it would inevitably be awkward to share a carriage with Zhuang Qingning.
Luckily, the weather was cool, making it an ideal day for travelling.
Perhaps this could be called taking advantage of both the heaven and earth.
Ding Gaochang was in a good mood because of this, and his tone was slightly upbeat while talking to Zhuang Qingning.
