The morning cleansed by rainfall, the summer sun shone on Lu Xiaoyou's fair face.
She sat in the car, one hand resting on the window, her dark hair fluttering in the wind.
She and her white hamster looked out at the world with their pairs of pitch-black eyes, resembling a deer lost in the forest that had mistakenly wandered into a world of steel and concrete.
Lu Xiaoyou wanted to leave the Secret Garden in order to see the world she had never experienced.
She lifted her gaze and saw on the skyscraper, a giant LCD screen playing an advertisement for a jewelry brand.
The woman appearing on the LCD had an elegant and charming face, bearing some resemblance to Lu Xiaoyou.
Adorned with a necklace and diamond watch worth millions, the woman on the screen exuded grandeur and luxury while showcasing the jewelry.
Lu Xiaoyou watched that woman, the smile in her eyes deepening.
The driver took Lu Xiaoyou to an upscale villa residential area.
