Gucheng, looking at her lithe silhouette, uncharacteristically started the conversation, "Seventh Miss should not have gone."
"Shouldn't have gone where? To see Gufeng?" Jiang Ning looked back at him, waving him over, "Gucheng, come here."
Gucheng walked up to her.
Once at the General's Mansion, he no longer had to keep his identity hidden but could openly follow Jiang Ning.
Most of the people in the mansion recognized him, and were even obligated to respectfully call him "Young Master Cheng".
These twelve children, who had adopted the name Gu, were on paper the imperial guards of Jiang Mubai, but in reality, they were akin to his foster sons.
Whether it was in the military or at the General's Mansion, their status was highly revered.
Gucheng, always cold and indifferent, remained largely oblivious to the salutations from the mansion's servants.
He stood in front of Jiang Ning, his head habitually bowed, as docile as a lamb: "Seventh Miss."
