Although the Shi family's influence had deteriorated, its vast manor stands as proof of their former glory when they were still in their prime.
The gates were huge and the yard spacious.
Their front entrance had four pillars and three doors. It was an imposing sight to behold.
Early in the morning, Lin Jin could see the Shi family servants cleaning out the entrance as he approached with the deer.
"Sir, may I ask who are you looking for?" one of the servants asked upon seeing Lin Jin standing at the gates.
Lin Jin smiled and answered, "I'm looking for Wu Chenwei."
"Oh, you're looking for our lord. May I have your name to inform them of your arrival?" The Shi family's servant was amiably well-mannered.
After Lin Jin gave his name, the servant disappeared into the building to inform the master of his presence.
Lin Jin intentionally asked to see Wu Chenwei just to see how the man would react to him showing up.
