Dusk descended, and a gentle flurry of snowflakes scattered through the night.
Dozens of kilometers northeast of Liao City, within the Caesar Forest Hot Spring Club, steam was rising, music was soaring, and a warm fragrance enveloped the surroundings.
There's a saying that goes, there's nothing quite like staying exclusively in a Villa.
When setting out, Mr. Lu had already booked the accommodations in advance—a two-story luxury family villa.
Outside was a private Japanese-style courtyard enclosed by brick walls, with white sand, pathways, a pond, wooden bridges, pine trees, and stone lanterns composing a picturesque scene.
At this moment, snowflakes fell in waves, covering everything with a natural frost, which added to the tranquil and elegant atmosphere.
But what truly defined this hot spring resort was the hot spring pool by the veranda near the rooms, formed with round stones, roughly 7-8 square meters in size, and sheltered by a canopy.
