“Lele, drink your milk first. Mommy will prepare something delicious for you,” Gu Zi offered the milk bottle to her. Lele sat on the sofa, accepting the bottle and sipping from it, nodding her head at her mother in agreement.

With that, Gu Zi retreated to the kitchen. She had planned a simple breakfast, steaming a portion of bird’s nest soup that her little girl could also partake in, and boiling four pigeon eggs, two for each of them, which would be sufficient.

As she prepared breakfast, Gu Zi’s mind wandered to the tasks she had planned for the day. She intended to dig up a plot of land that morning, to plant mint and other herbs. Her gaze drifted towards the door, and flashes of the passionate love-making from the previous night filled her mind. The thought of Su Shen brought an uncontrollable smile to her lips.

People often say that sudden tears are less frightening than sudden laughter. Tears suggest a return to clarity, while laughter implies a fascination with someone or something. For a man and a woman, this could signal the beginning of love.

Gu Zi had always been resistant to the idea of falling head over heels in love. She believed that the union of a man and a woman was essentially an exchange of values. Therefore, it was crucial to remain clear-headed in a relationship. Conversely, she was afraid of being love-struck.

However, now that she found herself smiling foolishly at the thought of Su Shen, Gu Zi felt no sense of crisis. Perhaps it was because he had truly been wonderful. Gu Zi was not one to be easily swayed. If it were not for his sincere and heartfelt efforts, he would not have been able to awaken her love-struck heart.

Gu Zi felt that starting to love him was a good choice. Energized by these thoughts, she found herself humming a tune as she dug up the soil in the yard.

That day, she did not tether Big Yellow, the dog. Big Yellow was free to roam around the yard and the house. However, Big Yellow seemed particularly attached to Gu Zi, following her wherever she went. When Gu Zi was digging, Big Yellow would circle around the plot of soil, occasionally running into it and rubbing against Gu Zi’s pant leg. Only when Gu Zi crouched down to pat its head would it willingly leave.

As it moved away, it left behind a trail of distinct plum blossom footprints. These caught the attention of little Lele, who observed them for a long time, her eyes filled with curiosity.
