Chapter 689

After finishing his remarks, Chen Mo nodded respectively to Jin Yanxi and Dong Puxu, then took the gift and followed Uncle Zhang through the gate. Upon entering, a spacious courtyard immediately came into view. The surroundings were filled with fragrant, vibrant flowers in full bloom, nestled among lush, thriving trees. A gentle breeze swept through, rustling the leaves and causing the blossoms to sway, sending waves of enchanting fragrance wafting through the air. This explained why he had smelled the flowers even before stepping through the gate. In truth, the space was more of a garden than a courtyard. What struck Chen Mo as interesting was that the flowers planted throughout the yard were almost exclusively roses, with red as the primary color. At this time of year, they were in peak bloom; at first glance, the entire courtyard looked as if it were ablaze.
