The courtyard of Arthur North’s home was not only large, but also more luxurious than any courtyard Daisy Zane had seen on her way here.
Pavilions, terraces, flying eaves and painted walls, jade towers and golden palaces.
The road leading directly to his living room is paved with cut jadeite rough stones.
Daisy Zane looked with the lantern, and the ones she saw were of good quality and good color.
If Felix Baker were to see this road, he would probably come with a shovel to dig out the stones.
All the servants in his courtyard were male and wore long robes, but in different colors, all black.
There were quite a few people, and ever since Daisy Zane entered the courtyard, everyone would take a look at her. Curiosity was in their eyes, but they dared not look too much or act improperly.
That night, Arthur North gave his room to Daisy Zane and went to sleep in the guesthouse.
Fearing she might not sleep well in this strange environment, he lit calming incenses in the room.
As a result, Daisy Zane didn’t wake up until more than 10 0’clock in the morning.
At past eight o’clock, she heard someone come in once.
She opened her eyes and saw that Arthur North had brought her new clothes.
She remembered Arthur North walking to the head of her bed and kissing her, then she went back to sleep.
She even had a dream in her sleep.
She dreamed of a three or four-year-old girl, who accidentally tripped while crossing a small wooden bridge.
It didn’t seem to hurt badly but not very much either.
Because the little girl got up by herself and brushed off the dirt on her skirt.
But then suddenly, an elder brother came over and squatted down in front of her, asking if she was hurt.
The little girl then threw herself into his arms, crying and asking him to hug her.
Daisy Zane wanted to see what this elder brother looked like.
But just before she could see him, she suddenly woke up.
Upon opening her eyes, Daisy Zane stared at the ceiling for a while, thinking that maybe she had stood on that bridge too long last night, which was why she had such a dream.
She got up and washed and rinsed her face.
While changing her clothes, Daisy Zane realized that Arthur North had not only prepared a dress for her but also underwear.
The dress was a regular outfit from Cloud Clothing and Rainbow Skirts, and the underwear was also from the brand she usually wore.
Moreover, the sizes were all appropriate.
Daisy Zane didn’t know how to describe her feelings when she put on her clothes, but she had a strange feeling of being seen through.
After changing her clothes, she went out and saw only a few servants in the living room, but Arthur North was not there.
One of them saw her coming down and immediately approached her, saying, “Lady, Third Master has gone to the front courtyard.”
Daisy Zane nodded her head.
“Would you like to have breakfast, Miss?” “No, I’ll eat lunch later.”
Another servant poured her a glass of water.
Daisy Zane took it and said thank you.
“Third Master said you can walk around and look anywhere you want,” the
servant said, “We can take you there. You can also go to the front courtyard to
find him.”
Daisy Zane took a sip of water, thought for a moment and said, “Take me to the
Lotus Flower Pond.”
“All right, please follow me.”
The twenty-five-acre Lotus Pond was in full bloom in this season. A sight to see, where layers of green leaves were connected to the sky, and every lotus flower was as pure as jade.
Walking on the corridor around the lotus pond, it was only when she got closer that she realized the variety of lotus in each pond was different.
Lotus flowers can vary greatly in color, petal width, and number. There can even be significant differences between the leaves.
Additionally, each pond has its own name.
Looking at the plaques hanging on the railings of the ponds, the names should have been written by Kevin Clark himself.
Indeed, he is very dedicated to these lotus flowers.
Daisy Zane arrived at the lotus pond and didn’t let anyone else follow her. She walked along the corridor, admiring the scenery.
She wasn’t sure where the lotus pond led to, so she just followed the corridor.
The sun felt quite strong in this month, and Daisy began to feel sweaty after walking for a while. She stopped by the edge of a lotus pond to rest.
There was a blooming lotus flower near the edge of the pond, with long slender petals arranged layer upon layer. As she took it all in, she reached down to touch it gently.
The lotus flower swayed lightly, and she smiled slightly.
Then she noticed a goldfish hidden beneath a lotus leaf.
Underneath the leaf, the goldfish seemed quite calm and content, unaware that it was being observed.
As Daisy was about to startle the fish, she suddenly heard the sound of approaching footsteps.
The footsteps were light, not Kevin’s. They seemed to belong to a young woman.
Hearing the footsteps getting closer, Daisy stood up straight and turned to look.
There was a young woman about five meters away, walking towards her.
Seeing Daisy looking her way, the young woman stopped in her tracks.
The young woman had an elegant air about her. Her hair was dyed light blue and worn in a bun. She had fair skin and a natural look on her face.
Her eyes had the classic almond shape, and her lips a vibrant red, not like the color of lipstick. She dressed in a practice outfit of white top and black pants, giving her a slender, delicate figure.
Separated by five meters, the two locked eyes for a moment. Then the young woman broke into an excited smile and quickly approached Daisy.
Daisy watched her walk towards her and scrutinized her, saying, “Riley Maxwell, is that really you?”
Daisy looked at her calmly without saying a word, her expression unchanged.
The young woman laughed, “No, Riley Maxwell is a character’s name. Your name is… Daisy Zane, right? I absolutely love your performance in ‘Fall of the
Quince’, big fan!”
Daisy didn’t expect to encounter a fan here.
“My name is Lily Parker,” The young woman didn’t mind Daisy’s silence and aloofness, and continued to introduce herself, “Um… what are you doing here? Oh! Did Allonzo Hobson bring you here?”
A member of the Clark Family… Daisy thought for a moment. This young woman should be Kevin Clark’s niece, Hugo Clark’s younger sister.
“Hello,” Daisy said.
“Hello, hello,” Lily Parker laughed, “How did you come here on your own? Why didn’t Allonzo Hobson accompany you?”
“The view here is nice,” Daisy replied.
“The view is indeed nice, but the owner here is quite fierce,” Lily Parker thought for a moment before describing, “Like a big gray wolf.”
Daisy arched her eyebrows but said nothing.
“Seriously, don’t doubt it,” Lily Parker continued, “He treats these lotus flowers like treasures and will tolerate anyone just looking at them, but if someone were to touch them, he’ll snap.”
“I’ve heard of that.’
“So even you know,” Lily said while bending over to poke the lotus flower,
“Allonzo Hobson must have told you, but why would he leave you here alone?
He should have been worried that the big gray wolf would eat you.”
Watching her vent her frustration by poking the lotus flower, Daisy smiled and said, “Be careful… it’ll break…
As soon as Daisy said that, Lily, used too much force and broke the lotus stem, while also knocking off a leaf. The two watched the broken lotus fall towards the pond. Lily swiftly grabbed it, preventing it from landing in the water.
Bending over with one hand supporting her on the railing and the other holding the lotus flower, she looked at Daisy in terror. Daisy watched as Lily’s face instantly turned pale.
“Five… five figures…”
Daisy:
“Plus… plus my life…” Lily was on the verge of tears..
