The old mansion in Lion Alley, usually desolate all year round, bustled with unusual activity today as several groups of people came and went.
Coming and going, scattering and leaving.
In the end, the place returned to its customary quietude.
When Gu Shen arrived at the old mansion, it was already evening. He carefully examined this old courtyard covered with red-brick dust; such buildings could no longer be found in the Da Du city area.
This had been Lu Cheng's residence in the old city district ten years ago...
"Here he comes, finally," Song Ci said, as if seeing a lifesaver. He quickly stood up from the steps, patted the dust off his buttocks, and said anxiously, "It seems like the lady is having another episode..."
Gu Shen looked at him askance.
"Tsk, bad luck," he muttered.
"Hold on," Song Ci abruptly corrected himself, "The lady's insomnia is acting up again. Could you take another look, sir?"
