The carriage stopped outside a beautiful building. As Hou Hai left the carriage, Xiaoling followed him out, gazing at the building in awe. Hou Hai stretched his arm before her so she could use it as support to walk down the carriage. But she failed to notice, awed by the massive building as she stepped down the carriage herself. Hou Hai sheepishly pulled his arm away.
"Come, I'll take you in," He offered.
Suddenly, Chao pulled at his sleeve, "Your High-" He pressed his lips together, "Young Master if we don't go back now, we'll get into trouble. It's way past the curfew!"
Hou Hai sternly brushed Chao's hand off his sleeve, gesturing to Xiaoling to walk inside. Xiaoling ignored their interaction and walked inside with Hou Hai following her. It was quiet and empty.
