The next morning, Bo Jiu set off early. This time, she took the main door, using Princess as a reason to head out.
Before she could leave the Courtyard, the grandfathers who were taking their walk were all greeting her. "The little kid is out again."
"He isn't climbing walls this time, though he seemed rather skilled the previous time."
"He must have been punished."
"Where are you going so early in the morning?"
At this point, Bo Jiu was well acquainted with the Courtyard grandfather's enthusiasm. They were firm and relentless but still carried a hint of youth.
"I'm bringing Princess out." Bo Jiu had prepared a reason beforehand. She tugged on her jacket, exposing Princess's big face. He was looking strong and mighty, his expression serious as though he was on a big project.
