Li Guoxing returned to the backyard with a solemn expression on his face and from afar, he could see the lights of the Main Courtyard still on. This was a habit Lady Li had developed since their marriage—she would leave the light on for Li Guoxing at night unless he sent a message saying he would not be coming over.
Upon hearing the familiar footsteps, Lady Li stood up and, upon seeing the expression on Li Guoxing's face, hurriedly asked, "Old Master, what's wrong?"
Li Guoxing did not disclose the incident he had just experienced and instead asked, "You have also met Yueyao a few times. What do you think of that child?"
Lady Li was surprised and did not understand why her husband suddenly asked this. After thinking for a moment, she said, "The child is quite sensible, what's the matter? Is there something inappropriate with Yueyao?"
Li Guoxing shook his head and said nothing more.
