"Whether he's impressed with the Hanlin Academy or not, we don't know," He Nan said, walking out with his hands behind his back. "But we have to admit the man is capable."
Ning Yuchen said, "…Mr. He, after all these years, you're still defending him. I wonder if Mr. Gu appreciates your loyalty?"
He Nan replied, "Lord Ning, you worry too much. My friendship with Mr. Gu is far more solid than you imagine.
I hear Lord Ning has been looking for a courtyard home these days. I wonder how that's going?"
Ning Yuchen looked baffled. "Where did you hear such a rumor? We're living perfectly fine right now. Why would we be looking for another house?"
He Nan said, "No…? Then perhaps I was mistaken."
Leaving them with that baffling remark, He Nan boarded his carriage and vanished before their eyes in a flash.
"Lord Ning, are you preparing to buy a house?" Cao Shijiang asked, cupping his hands in congratulations. "If so, allow me to congratulate you in advance."
