Time quietly surged forward.
Lin Tong, walking two steps ahead of Ye Xuan, suddenly stopped, turned to face City Ring Lake, and closed her eyes with a smile.
She seemed to be enjoying it, so ethereal and serene.
Already in a completely relaxed state, she gently lifted her arms, feeling the autumn wind blowing towards her, with a smile growing brighter on the corner of her lips.
"So beautiful..."
Ye Xuan was astonished, never having seen Lin Tong in such a state before.
It was as if suddenly, the ice queen of the past was gone, replaced by a pure girl who loves life and yearns to be loved in return.
It's often said that only when a person is in their most relaxed state will they completely shed their masks and show their truest self.
This was the real Lin Tong...
It's almost funny; after living together for so long, this was actually the first time Ye Xuan saw Lin Tong truly as she was.
The true her, beautiful deep within the soul, intoxicatingly so, truly intoxicating.
