A small courtyard over a hundred square meters, reminiscent of a small courtyard in the eastern part of the Imperial City.
Behind the courtyard is a shadowy hillside, covered with verdant bamboo, its leaves swaying gently in the night breeze.
Underneath the eaves of the courtyard, a few lanterns emit a dim yellow light, lending the entire courtyard a gentle tranquility.
A light breeze stirs outside the courtyard.
But once inside, it feels as if all the surrounding sounds are shielded outside, leaving only the sound of footsteps on the path, and the steady, powerful heartbeat within oneself.
Lu Changchuan involuntarily held his breath.
"Master, Huai Miao is here to see you..."
Stopping at the stone steps outside the door, Huai An bowed his head and reported.
"Let her in."
An aged voice sounded, "You take him for tea, leave me to chat with Huai Miao."
"Understood."
Huai An replied, looking back at Lu Changchuan, "Donor Lu, please follow me..."
