The days since moving to Camphor Bliss Mansion have been plain yet always carry a hint of sweet anticipation.
During the day, Henry Ronan leaves for work while Lucy Ansley stays home writing code and running tests for a tech giant.
Occasionally, out of boredom, she'll pick up a book to pass the time.
In the blink of an eye, four or five days pass, and Christmas is just around the corner.
That morning after the man left, Lucy sat idly in the living room, lost in thought.
The sky outside was overcast and foggy.
Lucy unintentionally caught sight of a teacup on the table, and an idea struck her. She tentatively sent Henry a WeChat message, asking for the phone number of ceramist Gu Qin.
About fifteen minutes later, he called directly, "Thinking of going to the ceramics studio?"
"Yeah, I don't have much to do today, so I thought I'd go learn something."
