Since Lu Yunque said he didn't know them, Yun Zijin didn't ask any more questions.
At the entrance of Jinsheng Hotel, Lu Yunque's driver, Zero One, and the others had already brought the cars around.
The two of them got into Lu Yunque's Rolls-Royce Phantom. Lu Yunque first dropped Yun Zijin off at Xingyu Mansion, then had the driver take him home.

「The next day.」
When Yun Zijin got up and opened her curtains, she discovered the Ice Tree and Fire Tree she had previously planted in the garden had sprouted.
Yun Zijin rushed out of her room and down into the garden behind the main building.
"Well now... one of ice and one of fire. That's a unique look, huh!"
The entire Ice Tree looked as if it were made of ice. Even its trunk was an icy blue, and you could feel a chill radiating from it just by getting close.
As for the Fire Tree, its branches were wreathed in constant flame. The trunk had turned a deep crimson, perhaps from being perpetually scorched by the fire.
