"Alright." Yue'er smiled brightly in response, glancing at Old Predecessor Guo and adding, "Then I'll go rest for a while."
"Very well." Old Predecessor Guo nodded once, watching her enter the courtyard before following Old Predecessor Yu to another section of the grounds.
Once inside the courtyard, Old Predecessor Yu didn't leave either. He had tea and pastries served, then sat down at a table in the courtyard. With no outsiders present, Old Master Yu finally asked, "How did you come to call Yun Qi 'young friend'? What is her background? I see you take great care of her—what is the reason for this?"
"Heh, her? Well, she does come from an extraordinary background. A descendant of my family brought her to the estate. When I heard she was coming this way and I happened to be attending a banquet, I brought her along." Old Predecessor Guo chuckled. "Don't let her young age fool you. Her composure and calmness in handling matters are beyond what most children possess."
