After lunch, Gu Shiyan returned to his company for work, while Qiao Yu led Chi Yu through the grand gates of the Gu family home.
Compared to the Chi family, the Gu residence wasn't as opulent, but the old mansion exuded a unique charm, a timeless elegance steeped in history. The scent of aged wood lingered in the air, and antique decorations were scattered throughout, each telling its own story.
Chi Yu believed that with such deep roots, the Gu family wouldn't degrade their home by displaying cheap artifacts merely to impress.
The servants, all in their thirties or older, moved silently, their footsteps imperceptible. Each wore a uniform, their faces respectful without a hint of servility. The family's dignified conduct was evident in every corner of the household.
