Only two days had passed in the blink of an eye.
Things had gone pretty much as Lin Ruhai had said they would. Lin Daiyu had woken up the day before and seemed no different from before she had fallen unconscious, aside from being a little weak.
By today, she could already walk around her room or the courtyard for a short while.

It was now around the end of the Shen hour, late afternoon, in the western wing of Lin Manor. The sun had begun to sink toward the west, its light filtering through sparse clouds. Though no longer intense, it cast a warm glow over the exquisite courtyard.
Exotic flowers and rare plants bloomed throughout the courtyard, while spiritual plants breathed out a hazy aura and brimmed with vitality. Several old magnolia trees bore bowl-sized blossoms whose faint fragrance filled the air. In the corner, phoenix-tail bamboo swayed in the breeze with a soft rustle, accompanied by the clear chirps of the spirit birds that occasionally swept past, lending the place an even greater sense of peace and seclusion.
Without a doubt, this was the perfect time and place for a stroll.
