As the music began, the room was instantly filled with flowers. Vibrant red blossoms lay prostrate at Li Rong's feet, like burning, leaping flames spreading out from her center.
A faint floral fragrance lingered around Li Rong's nose.
The song ended.
Li Feng casually picked a flower and handed it to Li Rong with a smile.
The flower branch trembled, shaking off a drop of dew from its leaves, which landed on the back of Li Rong's hand.
