The sea breeze blew against their faces, carrying a faint, salty-sweet scent. Lu Xia and Graces stood on the veranda for a while before returning to the villa.
The butler had already cleaned the rooms they would be using for the day and had thoughtfully decorated them with bouquets of flowers.
The Breeding Master had taken Little Pu Tao down to be fed, and he was now asleep.
Lu Xia and Graces also had something to eat, then changed their clothes and went to the beach.
After tossing the sunscreen to Graces, Lu Xia lay down on her stomach on a lounge chair that a staff member had prepared. "Graces, you need to put some on later too."
The sun at the beach was brutal. If you didn't protect yourself properly, you'd be peeling by the next day.
Graces squatted down, carefully pouring the sunscreen into his hands and rubbing them together before gently applying it, bit by bit, to Lu Xia's exposed skin.
'Her skin has always been so fair and delicate. I have to protect it well.'
