However, Count Karlo didn't expect An Su to have any good news to share; it was the Church's major exam period recently, and for all he knew, the lad might have scored quite well.
If An Su had said he scored zero, then Count Karlo would have been able to laugh out loud.
How to pique a reader's interest with just one sentence... An Su wore a thoughtful expression, his gaze flickering as various ideas collided in his mind. Soon, he found the only solution,
"Our family has a new member."
"A reward of ten thousand ounces of Gold," Count Karlo's interest in reading was instantly piqued. Unable to maintain his aloof tone, he paced back and forth in the study, "Girl or boy, what's the name, when did it happen, and whose is it?"
"Daughter," An Su replied.
"Good, good, a girl." Count Karlo said with a smile, "What's her name?"
"Luo Xiaohei," An Su answered with a smile, "I am her dad."
