Gu Yanfei straightened her dress a little and ignored the cat. She followed the old woman who came to report to her to the hall of the outer courtyard.

From afar, she saw the patriarch in a green robe walking back and forth in the hall. Even if he didn't say a word, he couldn't hide the uneasiness and discomfort in his heart with every move.

Seeing Gu Yanfei walk over, the patriarch's old face revealed a fawning smile.

"Yanfei, you asked someone to call me over. Is there anything urgent?" the patriarch asked kindly. He no longer had the air of an elder and lowered his posture.
