His Mansion was a much more accurate description of what I was staring at.
Four massive, white stone pillars held up the façade, which framed a beautiful door painted in a rich shade of creamy. White and grey stone, trimmed with white bricks made up the rest of it. The mansion was flanked by colossal pine and a trees on a lush green park, that spread out for what seemed like miles.
He then greeted an older man, with graying hair, who appeared to be waiting at the top of the steps for us.
Xiao Nai introduced him to me as Elder Yu, and the two of them had a small chat, while my knees felt like they would buckle at any moment. I made a valiant attempt to say hello and not frighten the elderly to an early death.
Highly doubtful I could be successful on that one. Well, we would just have to wait and see if Elder Yu died in his sleep tonight, wouldn't we?
