"Err, it's more than a surprise, it's almost a shock. You've kept this hidden from me for so long!" Ling Feng said with a wry smile.
"I obviously have my reasons. Let's see what we can do first. If they don't give it, you'll have been happy for nothing!" Joanna said, then pushed open the wooden gate and entered the yard.
As Ling Feng saw her enter, he started to follow her but then remembered Qiao Anran. He looked back at her, "Don't be afraid, girl. Your sister Fei'er will protect you!"
"Alright then..."
Qiao Anran's lips were pouted high in obvious discontent, but she didn't want to wait outside either. So, she tightly held Li Fei'er's hand and followed into the yard.
This was a typical rural courtyard with three tiled houses and a small vegetable garden inside, filled with some lush green veggies.
"Uncle Sanshui, are you home?"
Joanna had already started calling out.
