Qiao Xia had originally thought that Mu Liang would take her to the mountains, but to her surprise, Mu Liang brought her to the riverbank instead.
City A has a river that flows across the entire city, dividing it into east and west sides, leading directly to the ocean. Upstream, in the suburbs, there was once a fishing village, which, after experiencing a surge in tides, saw its fishermen gradually move away, leaving the area abandoned.
Two years ago, someone leased and developed the area into fish ponds, farms, and a resort with traditional charm, which quickly became an exclusive social gathering place for City A's elite society. Lake Heart Resort was established in the middle of the lake, divided into four areas, with delicate bridges connecting them. All transportation was by boat, and in the summer, when lotus flowers bloomed profusely over the lake, the scene was breathtakingly beautiful.
