Sheng Li and Ying Lili were in their private chamber, having lunch. "Food was delicious," Ying Lili praised the maidservant, who was standing a meter away from them. She picked the water glass and took a few sips. Sheng Li ordered the maidservant to clean the table, who did so. 

"Come with me," Sheng Li stood up from the mattress on the floor and forwarded his hand to Ying Lili. Ying Lili placed her hand on his, who pulled her up gently. Ying Lili followed her husband's steps that had taken her to the room attached to the chamber. 

The room was completely dark. "Why is it so dark?" Ying Lili asked when a dim source of light was visible to her. The maidservant there brought a candle and she placed it on the candle stand. Ying Lili glanced at Sheng Li with astonishment. He had again planned a surprise for her. Her eyes fell on the white curtain, which was illuminated by the lights of the lanterns. Ying Lili had understood what could be the possible surprise for her.
