The summer sun burned, its glare particularly piercing. It fell upon the clear surface of a lake, painting it with a shimmering light, as though a layer of glitter had been scattered across it.
"I found them. Can I come over now?" Yin Ji's voice called from a distance.
Jiang Zheyu hesitated for a moment, crossing her arms over her chest. Then, she slowly sank deeper into the water until it came up to her neck, leaving only her head exposed.
"Mmm, you can come over," Jiang Zheyu answered softly.
Soon, a large white tiger approached, two pieces of animal hide held in his mouth. He placed them on the ground by the lake and glanced at Jiang Zheyu. "Female Master, these are my clothes. I'm not sure if they'll fit, but you can try them on."
'The water is so bright and reflective,' Jiang Zheyu figured. 'He probably can't see me that clearly.'
Still, she spoke up, "Alright, alright. Turn around. I'm going to change clothes."
