For Ji Yun, a decade was but a blink of an eye.
He had never before witnessed Lan City slowly changing with the years.
In spring and summer, the banyan branches were lush; in autumn and winter, the fallen leaves golden yellow.
Older people always liked to wander about, to see the places they were familiar with and meet the people they once knew.
Ji Yun could be counted as an older person, so he stepped from one season in Lan City into another, and he could easily notice the subtle differences with each recurring season.
Ever since it had snowed, the vegetation in Lan City had become increasingly lush.
Each year was warmer than the last.
It seems that for many years to come, Lan City might not see another snowscape.
...
Time flew like an arrow, and two years quickly passed.
Whether it was the Ban Mountain Villa project or the cultivation of the glow mushrooms, both had gradually made Ji Yun a distinguished young entrepreneur in Lan City.
