In the Xuandu Suburbs, where the An Family Villa was located, there were few inhabitants. Although the environment here was elegant and the scenery pleasing, it was not the most famous affluent district in Xuandu City. Most people preferred to live in communities, especially the wealthy families who liked to compare their wealth and luxurious lifestyles with their neighbors. A grand family like the An Family, preferring seclusion, was quite rare indeed.
At this time, it was late February in Xuandu City, and by a little after seven o'clock in the evening, the sky had already darkened. The An Family Villa was surrounded by only a few scattered households, all of which were quite far apart.
Outside the An Family Villa, everything was quiet; a bright moon hung in the dense black night sky, its normally bright radiance adding a silvery chill to this spring's cold night.
Suddenly, a dry tree in the distance swayed slightly. In the still and windless night, it inexplicably made a noise.
