Zhan Family Manor

The Zhan Family manor house looked no more extravagant than any regular manor house that Alex had seen. In fact, it was even more moderate in comparison to most. And yet, it held an air of nobility to it that made Alex feel like he had truly come to the house of someone big.

A few people stood where the carriage stopped. One of them was an old man with a bald head and gray mustaches. He wore a creamy white robe and held a smile on his face.

The man was Zhan Laoyin, head of the Zhan family.

The Crown Prince got off the carriage first and directed a wide smile toward the Zhan family head.

"Senior Zhan, it has been a long time," the Crown Prince spoke. "My apologies for not coming sooner."

"Your Highness, there is no need to apologize," the old man said. "I'm just happy to see you again."
