*Knock* *Knock*
Lady Chu knocked on the door with a resolute expression on her graceful face, but her heart was beating irregularly, almost like she'd just ran a marathon.
After all, she had waited over a decade for this moment.
A few moments went by without anyone answering the door, and Lady Chu patiently waited for an entire minute before knocking on the door again.
However, nobody answered the door.
"How weird… Where could he be at this time? According to my information, he rarely leaves home." Lady Chu wondered out loud.
"Let's wait here for a bit," she then said to the old man.
"I understand." He nodded.
Minutes quickly turned into hours, yet Yuan showed no sign of returning.
"Perhaps he moved out after that incident?" The old man suddenly suggested.
