Mu Qi was brewing the herbs in a pot, while Miao Tinglian sat by his side and instructed him what to add.
The two occasionally talked about the spirit herbs and their benefits.
They didn't rush. They simply sat beside each other to try and make things better.
"This spirit herb is something I discovered while reading ancient texts. I think it might be useful," Miao Tinglian said with a smile.
"Yeah. That might be useful," said Mu Qi.
As time passed, it drizzled lightly.
"It's raining," Miao Tinglian said as she looked outside.
"Yes. It's raining." Mu Qi also glanced outside.
Before long, the rain pattered on the roof heavily.
Water flowed down from the roof.
"It's pouring now," Miao Tinglian said.
"Yeah." Mu Qi nodded.
They stared outside quietly and listened to the sound of the rain.
It felt peaceful.
