These ancient library towers inevitably contained many stories.

This one that was before her now, she did not know how many people had come and gone through it or how many love stories it kept hidden inside. But this place was Jiangnan and that ancient library tower of the past that was held in her memory had once stood far away in the northwest regions. It had long ago returned to the dust.

The Han dynasty Prince’s manor had been located in Sewol, which is present-day Seoul. The Nam family manor is in Daegu, relatively close to Busan where Lisa resides.

Yerin pulled out an old, long copper key and opened the lock.

Perhaps out of worry that Lisa was someone who required cleanliness, as she pushed open the door, she explained to her that every day this place was cleaned by a dedicated person so there would not be any dust. “Oh right, are you allergic to dust or any flowers or plants?”

Lisa shook her head.

“My big brother has allergies to dust as well as flowers and plants.” Yerin gave a low chuckle.

Lisa nodded. “Noted. Our home in the future will be completely dust-free and we will not grow any plants.”

Yerin laughed, “His allergies aren’t really that serious.”

She suddenly dropped her voice and whispered, as if she was siding with Lisa, “If you ever get in a fight with him, just make him smell some flowers and then small red bumps will pop up on his body. Not a lot of them, but it’s especially comical to see.”

Lisa seriously had doubts whether this girl in front of her was truly studying medicine. Even she knew that allergies were not something to be ignored, and although most allergic reactions were not severe, when they actually were, they could be very scary.

Inside, there indeed was not a speck of dust to be found.

All along the way, from the first floor to the third, it was as if Lisa was admiring ancient artefacts. From the decorative accents in every corner to the engravings in the wood that could be seen when she lifted her head, everything was fascinating to her.

Yerin did not appear to have much interest in ancient Chinese literature and could not provide any explanations or backgrounds of anything, so she simply let Lisa walk to the top level. Because it was an ancient building, the tower soared tall at a height of approximately 32 metres.

The east and south sides of the tower had top hung windows that opened outward. Books and manuscripts of every description filled the dozen or more rows of shelves. There were scrolls as well as bound books. It was fortunate there were no scrolls of bamboo slips, otherwise, she truly would have started to suspect which era she was in.
