"Third Master Huang?"
Lady Hou seemed to find the name familiar.
Hou Tianying pretended to hesitate for a moment before explaining, "Mother, I once told you about a man I liked. It's him, Third Master Huang!"
"But that day, I also saw him—he was the one who beat Big Brother into this state!"
Hou Tianying sneered. "Right now, we're sworn enemies; liking him is out of the question!"
Lady Hou's face filled with malice. So that person was Third Master Huang... He was indeed quite handsome, by all accounts. What a pity... A pity he would never leave Jinling City alive.
Without dallying, Hou Tianying visited for a short while before heading straight to Old Master Hou's study.
"Father!"
Old Master Hou had just returned to the front courtyard from Aunt Mei's quarters and was about to head out for the morning assembly. After all, with the Inspector General still in town, he had to keep up appearances.
