The kindergarten ends early, so coming home at this time is already considered late.
The setting sun was almost below the horizon, revealing only a touch of crimson glow, as if reluctantly peering into the human world.
The twilight gradually crept across the sky, tinting a large part of it a grayish-black.
The courtyard lights were warmly illuminated with a soft yellow glow.
As Yun Qi stepped in the door, she called out loudly, "Grandpa, I'm back—"
On the way, she had prepared an excuse, if the Old Master asked, she would say that Uncle took her to the amusement park.
However, the courtyard was unusually quiet, even the passing servants seemed to be secretive.
Yun Qiuce also felt puzzled and reached out to hold the Little Dumpling beside him.
"Don't be afraid, Uncle is here."
"Hmm, Little Qi will protect Uncle." Yun Qi responded, playfully tapping her uncle's palm.
Huh? Who was comforting whom?
