When Li Xiang got home, he heard a "DUM DUM DUM~" of drumming from the backyard. But it wasn't the heroic and stirring kind. It was a rendition of "Divination," a song full of sorrowful twists and turns, brimming with the tender feelings of love.
He went to the backyard and saw a lovely figure swinging her slender, lotus-like arms to beat the drum. Who else could it be but Jiang Cai'Er?
"My perfectly fine Martial War Drum, how could you make it sound so sad? And during the New Year, no less!" Li Xiang couldn't help but recall his grandmother complaining about his grandfather playing pieces like "Moon Reflected in Two Springs" and "Burial of Flowers" during the New Year. He walked over and joked with her.
"Well, well~ Back from your blind date? How did it go? Did the girl take a liking to you?" Jiang Cai'Er put down the Drum Sticks, a cold smile on her lips as she turned around. Her eyes were a little red, as if bloodshot.
