“Where’s Master Taojian?” Zhang Ling rubbed her eye and asked curiously.

A maid stepped forward to inform, “He’s taking a break today. I reckon he’s reading in Orchid Court”

Zhang Ling then led the small group towards Orchid Court.

A young servant stood outside the gate of the hanging flowers. Seeing the approaching group, he hurried inside.

Yang Chengbin had never seen his mother like this before. Her disappointed and shocked expression almost made him feel exposed.
