Someone noticed the Master's mood was low and asked in surprise. The Master hesitated, seemingly wanting someone to help him find someone, but then, recalling that his 'little sister' was likely the very thief being pursued by Second Master Hou Er, he shook his head gloomily. "It's nothing, just needed some fresh air."
As he turned back into the room, he lamented to himself, "Sister, sister, why don't you recognize me..."
Outside the window, in a clump of bushes, Dong Huiying squinted her eyes.
She had not left immediately, wanting to trick this man.
