The early sun climbed high, bathing the entire dining room in a soft golden light.
The Gray Wolf Butler stood with his back ramrod straight. The warmth of the sun on his face easily brought to mind the girl he had been watching for so long.
He remained silent for a long time.
Seeing this, Old Qin spoke in a heartfelt, serious tone. "Yi Nuo, we're all males here. I understand. You're of age, and when you meet an outstanding and perfect female like the Young Miss, it's inevitable that you'd develop feelings."
"But have you ever thought about how you two are worlds apart? Your feelings will likely never be reciprocated. If you can't control your actions, you won't even be able to stay with the Jiang Family. So I advise you to just give up..."
Yi Nuo listened, clearing the dishes from the table without a word.
Before leaving, he paused and suddenly said, "Housekeeper Qin, please don't tell the Young Miss."
"I won't cross any lines, and... I never expected her to reciprocate."
