Gu Zhiqi immediately responded, "Tomorrow."
The day after tomorrow is Grandpa’s birthday celebration, so I have to return today or tomorrow anyway.
Fu Xiyan listened and nodded, "Tomorrow I’ll go to Haicheng with you."
Gu Zhiqi turned her head and gave him a look, her eyes filled with a puzzled expression.
Beside her, Tang Yichen voiced Gu Zhiqi’s inner confusion, "Second brother, why are you going to Haicheng?"
Having just finished a conversation with Jin Cengran, Tang Yichen immediately asked with great enthusiasm upon hearing Fu Xiyan’s words.
Fu Xiyan: "To attend Grandpa Gu’s birthday celebration."
Hearing this, Gu Zhiqi understood.
Jin Cengran listened to their conversation and immediately said to Gu Zhiqi, "I’ll go too."
If it were in the past, even if the person was Gu Zhiqi’s grandfather, neither Jin Cengran nor Fu Xiyan would have attended.
But now it’s different; Gu Zhiqi is their sister, and previously the three families had dined together, so they are somewhat acquainted.
Knowing that Old Master Gu’s birthday is approaching, it’s only right to pay a visit.
Just in time, they also need to discuss Gu Zhiqi’s coming-of-age ceremony arrangements with the Gu Family.
"You both are going, then I will go too!" Hearing that the two were going to attend Old Master Gu’s birthday celebration, Tang Yichen immediately raised his hand to indicate he wanted to go too.
Hearing this, Fu Xiyan turned his head to look at Tang Yichen and asked, "Do you know Grandpa Gu?"
Tang Yichen shook his head.
Then, thick-skinned, he said, "What’s the matter if I’m not acquainted, just go and meet him, then I’ll be familiar."
"I’m so delightful, surely Grandpa Gu would like me."
Fu Xiyan: "..."
They chatted as they walked, and unconsciously found themselves outside the Yun Family’s hall, where someone immediately stepped forward to greet them.
First, they greeted Fu Xiyan and the other three, then looked at Gu Zhiqi, "And who might this lady be?"
The questioner was the Great Elder of the Imperial Capital Yun Family.
He recognized the four of Fu Xiyan, but it was his first time meeting Gu Zhiqi.
Fu Xiyan spoke up, "Family’s little sister."
The moment Fu Xiyan finished speaking, the Great Elder’s eyes were colored with surprise.
He stared at Gu Zhiqi for several seconds, eventually saying, "Oh, it’s Miss Fu, my apologies."
Once the Great Elder spoke, Fu Xiyan corrected him, "My sister’s surname is Gu."
Great Elder: Hmm?
Not sister?
Although puzzled, the Great Elder didn’t inquire further, merely addressing Gu Zhiqi, "Miss Gu."
Just as the Great Elder finished greeting Gu Zhiqi, Su Yunling spoke, introducing the Great Elder to Gu Zhiqi, "The Yun Family’s Great Elder, surname Yun."
Gu Zhiqi nodded to the Great Elder, "Elder Yun."
Seeing Su Yunling personally introduce Gu Zhiqi, the Great Elder’s eyes flashed with surprise.
Isn’t she Master Fu’s sister?
Why is this Master introducing her?
Although curious, the Great Elder knew it wasn’t his concern.
"What brings you all here today?"
As soon as the Great Elder asked, Tang Yichen immediately spoke up, "Isn’t today when the Yun Family selects a new head? So we came to see."
The Great Elder nodded, "Indeed." After nodding, he looked at the group and said, "However, you all arrived late, the selection has already concluded."
Tang Yichen: "What? It’s already over? What was the result?"
Fu Xiyan and the others also turned their heads to look at the Great Elder.
Great Elder: "Miss Yun Tung is the new head, she’s about to conduct the ancestral rites, I am just heading off to prepare."
Hearing this, Tang Yichen remarked with a bit of regret, "It’s already over."
Beside him, Su Yunling asked the Great Elder, "Where is Miss Yun Tung now?"
