Chapter 189: Xiangxiang
The summer light was bright and intense.
Jiang Huai made a trip to the spiritual plant garden, which was full of medicinal herbs, and bought some fragrant lotus from the garden owner. He returned to the courtyard and began to repair the lotus pond that had been damaged by the recent storm.
Jiang Huai didn’t have a particular fondness for flowers, but out of boredom, he planted many in the courtyard. Occasionally, when he went down the mountain to secret realms and saw beautiful and fragrant flowers, he couldn’t help but pick one to bring back.
Master Chu Xianning’s Flower Spirit Body meant that the spiritual energy that lingered around her would keep the flowers in the courtyard blooming all year round, vibrant and luscious.
After busying himself in the lotus pond for a long time, Jiang Huai, together with Bai Li, finally repaired the pond. Chu Xianning went back to her room to rest, and Jiang Huai glanced at Bai Li.
“Shall we take a bath?”
“Let’s go.” Bai Li leaned towards Jiang Huai.
In the bathhouse, the water rippled, and the sunlight above was scorching hot, making them reluctant to get up after soaking for a long time. The cool water refreshed their skin. Bai Li sat on the steps in the bathhouse, her fair little legs constantly swaying, splashing large amounts of water.
Jiang Huai had promised to visit Wen Fufu in the afternoon.
Bai Li had already changed back into her adult form by the bathhouse, and the summer weather was excessively hot. She chose a light summer dress, and her warm, long legs were faintly visible beneath the black gauze skirt. She carefully combed her silver-white hair but kept accidentally tying it crookedly until Jiang Huai came behind her and carefully tied it up for her.
The two went to Wen Fufu’s courtyard together, but after knocking for a while with no response, Jiang Huai pushed the door open and they both walked in. He had just looked around and called Wen Fufu’s name when he suddenly heard a girl’s scream.
