Pei Ge felt more at ease upon her uncle's repeated promise.
A meaningless breakfast ended amid this silence.
Once the couple was gone, Qu Xiujie hurriedly made his way to the three children's room. Through acting familiar and friendly with them, he managed to understand Madam Ji's habits and hobbies.
