Gu Wenheng's words were exactly what Gu Dashi wanted to hear. Ever since this daughter returned home, the family's atmosphere had grown worse by the day, forcing the old man to hide outside every day despite the freezing cold.
Gu Dashi completely forgot that even before Gu Yuanfeng arrived, he rarely stayed at home anyway.
"Exactly. If you can't manage the expression on your face, don't come out and embarrass me. Hurry up and follow me back."
Gu Yuanfeng ultimately didn't dare to go against her own father. She merely glared viciously at Gu Wenheng, cast an unwilling backward glance at the courtyard, and slowly followed behind Gu Dashi.
"Nonsense," Gu Wenheng muttered. Watching them walk away, he finally turned around and knocked on the door.
「Meanwhile.」
Jin Qianqian lifted the curtain and looked at the procession stretching out ahead and behind. She couldn't see the end in either direction.
