"Who sent these men to follow you?"
"The Gongs."
"The Gongs?!" The woman was stunned by the reply, but she did not press further.
After a moment's silence, she voiced an odd remark. "I'm curious; why did they send men to stalk you? I'm uncomfortable with the thought. Your family is so strange!"
"There's no special reason, really. First, my family wants to ensure our safety; second, the elders are worried that some of us may be out to create trouble."
"Oh, I see."
She was piqued by this legendary family by now.
"Is it an enormous household?"
"Yes."
"How many members are there in the family?"
Her brother did not know how to answer that question, so he could only give a vague answer. "It's probably larger than what you can imagine."
She suddenly drew close to him conspiratorially and whispered, "Is it comparable to the Mu family?"
