Five o'clock in the afternoon.
Peace Park, a detached villa.
Bai Xiao got out of the off-road vehicle, his gaze quietly surveying the surroundings.
The tall white walls blocked the view from outside, lush tree branches draped over the wall. In the flower bed, lined with ceramic tiles, a wooden fence encircled twisted and glamorous rose thorns, exhaling a faint fragrance of flowers.
Between the flower beds was a path paved with cobblestones, leading from the open space all the way to the distant courtyard, which featured a waterside deck, a small swimming pool, and a white arcade. Beneath the arcade, sofas with yellow spots were arranged, with sunlight slanting down, casting mottled light and shadow.
It had a very modern style and seemed quite relaxed and casual.
Especially that swimming pool courtyard, was it specially designed for parties? Surrounded by a circle of green grass, where one could barbecue in the open air?
He walked towards it, taking in the tranquil atmosphere.
