Yet, when the old Master Gong saw Mu Lin, he was shocked.
Truly shocked.
"Young girl, it's you!" He had not expected it.
Master Gong hadn't thought that the girl before him would be someone he is familiar with; or perhaps it'd be more accurate to say that they had once had a long…disconnected relationship.
On seeing Master Gong, Mu Lin was somewhat taken aback as well.
Wasn't he the old man who went fishing with her last time? She could tell he must be some wealthy family's elderly patriarch seeking diversion outside his mansion. She didn't expect, however, that he was her mother's father, namely her titular grandfather.
What an extraordinary coincidence; in that one day, she had met her cousin as well as her paternal grandfather. Did influential figures all tend to gather in places with lots of people?
Mu Lin suddenly discovered that she seemed to already have a connection with the Gong family, as if by fate.
