The figure leaning against the porch was none other than Pei Guanli.
Upon hearing the sound, the bored look on her face instantly broke into a smile. She came bounding over, the bell on her neck swaying.
JINGLE, JINGLE.
"Brother-in-law, it's past noon! How come you're back so late?"
She must have been getting anxious from the wait, as her Mountain Race dialect had slipped out.
Chen Yi understood her just fine. He motioned for Xiaodie, Wang Lixing, and the others to take Xiao Wuge into the Spring Lotus Garden first.
Xiao Wuge curiously sized up Pei Guanli's attire, only to be met with a funny face from her. He couldn't help but laugh. "Brother-in-law, she calls you Brother-in-law, too?"
Chen Yi clapped him on the shoulder. "Your second sister has taken her as a sworn sister."
"Oh, that explains why I've never seen her around the mansion."
