In the garden, the night was enchanting, with a crescent moon hanging in the night sky and stars scattered about.
A gentle breeze blew through, bringing with it the fragrance of Gardenia flowers.
Under the night sky, Lu Fengxuan walked arm in arm with Yu Chiyin, strolling down the pebbled path in the garden, with two children chasing each other ahead of them.
"Tired?" Yu Chiyin looked down at her. "If you're tired, we can sit for a while in the pavilion ahead."
Lu Fengxuan nodded, "Okay."
In their own yard, they didn't need to worry about the children getting lost, so they let them play to their heart's content, knowing that when bedtime came, they'd fall asleep as soon as their heads hit the pillow.
On the stone table in the pavilion, Yu Chiyin had the butler bring over a pot of floral tea along with cake and some sliced fruit.
Lu Fengxuan tasted a couple of bites of the cake, finding the sweet yet non-cloying flavor paired with the sour-sweet strawberries very delicious.
