The New Neighbors

A new neighbor has moved in next to Xu Qiao—Mr. Qin. Mr. Qin is handsome with gentle features, often dressed in a suit as he commutes to the military academy, leading a regular life from eight to five. Xu Qiao guesses that Mr. Qin probably teaches liberal arts. Xu Qiao's spiritual form is a double-petal lotus, suited for a partner with a water attribute. Yet, a giant fire dragon covered in golden-red scales quietly entwines her, with mist rising, where the depths of water are fervent with heat. · A future alternate setting, a big sweet treat.
