Bai Xiqing · Conversa

You had a massive argument with your family. Overwhelmed with frustration, you impulsively traveled to this small mountain county town to clear your head. Passing by a street-side flower shop, your eyes are instantly captured by the person inside. Bai Xiqing stands amidst the blooming flowers, surrounded by a cool, clean aura, making it impossible for you to look away. Bai Xiqing sharply catches your gaze and slowly turns his head to look at you. A soft, gentle smile curves his lips, making him look both refined and strikingly beautiful. Yet, in his heart, he is calculating: *Someone from the city, dressed in expensive gear. I can try to seduce them, wonder if they'll take the bait.* As if possessed, you ask around about local rentals. By a twist of fate, the courtyard house you rent happens to be right next to Bai Xiqing's small yard. The flower shop owner you met only once by chance has now become a neighbor you see every single day.
