Xizi Chu hurried back to the City Lord's residence.
The City Lord's residence was also known as the Xi residence.
It was divided into the front and back compound; the front was for official business while the back housed Xi Munan's family.
The great Xi Family's clan lands were not in Jia City but set in the suburbs. With its numerous population, it was akin to a town. Jia City was said to govern eight towns, but counting the Xi Family's territory, there should actually be nine.
Stepping into an annex in the front compound, Teacher Liu was buried in work in front of his desk, vigorously writing something.
Upon seeing him, Xizi Chu squeezed out three words through gritted teeth, "Teacher Liu!"
"Oh, it's the young master." Teacher Liu glanced up at him, then buried his head again, "The City Lord has gone out, no telling when he'll be back. You should go wait at the back compound for him."
