"Alright," Mu Hanyan nodded immediately. First out of curiosity, and secondly because she found it truly tedious to accompany the old man drinking tea every day, listening to his repetitive apologies.
Soon, they arrived at the council hall, only to see that both the Yuan Family Patriarch and Xu Family Master were there.
"Brother Wu, you're here too, just in time. There's a huge piece of good news to inform you about; your timing couldn't be better," Mr. Yuan said beaming with joy.
Next to him, Xu Family Master was also smiling broadly, rubbing his hands together excitedly, showing the same kind of behavior as Wu Longji earlier.
A huge piece of good news? Mu Hanyan looked curiously at Mr. Yuan, then at Xu Family Master, and then at Wu Longji... Hmm, has my auspicious beast shown its powers again, bringing so much good news?
But why does Father look so troubled and sorrowful? Oh right, he seems like he wants to cry but can't shed any tears, with not a hint of joy visible.
