Jian Gang after main event
A nervous anticipation simmered in Alex's stomach as he walked alongside Li Yunhua towards the Jian Gang residence.
"This is…" Li Yunhua began, sensing his unease. She shook her head before he could finish his question. "I can't say for certain, but everyone we asked described him as a reclusive leader residing here."
The estate itself stood out like a sore thumb amidst the traditional architecture of the old kingdom. Modern lines and expansive glass windows replaced the usual wooden structures and thatched roofs. It was a beacon of modernity in a sea of tradition.
"Well, as I remember he's live here."
They approached the imposing iron gate and Li Yunhua rapped a firm rhythm on the heavy door.
Knock! Knock! The silence stretched, broken only by the rhythmic clang of the knocker.
Just as Alex considered knocking again, the door creaked open, revealing a young woman with inquisitive eyes.
