"Uh?" Si Ning blinked and turned to Xiu TianZhao as he tried to mask that he hadn't been listening to him by pretending he only didn't get the last part while trying to maintain an innocent look to avoid feeling guilty because he had only exchanged greetings with Xiu TianZhao and had been in thought since he rode his horse into the place and was still in thought after dismounting as they started walking.
"Brother is not here." Xiu TianZhao repeated. "You have been looking everywhere like you are expecting him to pop out from nowhere but he is currently with mother."
