The banks of Lin Zhong Lake in February had already acquired hints of green.
It was just as described in Zhu Ziqing's 'Spring': the mountains had become fresh and damp, the water had risen, and the sun's face had reddened.
The ice that had covered the lake had melted, and the red big birds and water buffaloes that had disappeared for most of the winter began to form groups again, appearing on both sides of the lake shore. At noon, when the young witches and wizards had just finished their classes and passed by the lake, they would casually toss down some breadcrumbs, oatmeal, or dried tofu to add a bit of nutrition to the thin guests in the lake.
Both the start of the school year and the arrival of spring brought a burgeoning vitality to the world.
Zheng Qing walked with Elena on this land brimming with life, filled with passion inside and out—this was also the main reason why his topics wandered off involuntarily while chatting.
