Xiao Qi alighted from the train with his luggage, looking at the city he hadn’t returned to in so many years, he felt a strange mix of emotions.

If it hadn’t been for An’an’s wedding this time, he estimated he still wouldn’t have returned. Because what he had always thought was that if he were to return, it would be with the eldest.

Xiao Qi stepped off the platform. The person who came to pick him up had been waiting outside the train station for some time.

“Young Master.” The moment Uncle Xiao spotted Xiao Qi, he shouted.

“Uncle Xiao, long time no see. How have you been these years?” Uncle Xiao had been his grandfather’s attendant, so Xiao Qi was not at all unfamiliar with him.

“I’m very well. I’m flattered that you still remember this old man.” Uncle Xiao gave Xiao Qi a smile.

Uncle Xiao put Xiao Qi’s luggage in the car. After making sure Xiao Qi was settled, he started the car and drove him back to the Xiaos.

Just as the car of the Xiaos left, a few people walked out of the exit. These people were Chu Beiying and her crew.

Chu Beiying, Wind, Cloud, Thunder, and Rain stepped out, looking at this city that was both familiar yet unfamiliar, Chu Beiying felt no sense of belonging, her heart filled with desolation.

Where on earth is her destined one? Can she return to the place she is familiar with?

“Miss, let’s go.” Wind looked at their lady.

The sight of her filled with sorrow and helplessness was heartbreaking. He couldn’t understand why Miss was in such a negative mood just because she ventured out for one trip?

After all, nothing out of the ordinary happened, except the day she disappeared for a half day. Is it because of those few hours, or is it because of that man?

It’s not that Wind didn’t recognize Xiao Qi, it’s because they didn’t see Xiao Qi before he left, so it was normal for them not to recognize him.

Moreover, because Xiao Qi didn’t want to be a soldier, Grandpa Xiao was so angry that he didn’t even mention his grandson Xiao Qi to anyone. Hence, outsiders are not familiar with Xiao Qi, even less likely for Wind and his team to know about Xiao Qi.

“Let’s go.” Chu Beiying suppressed the sorrow in her heart and said to Wind.

Just as Chu Beiying and her group left, Gu Beihan and Gu Beilin arrived from behind.

Three groups of strangers, on the same day, arrived at the same place via the same train.

“Brother, is anyone coming to pick us up?” Gu Beilin looked at the crowd and wondered if anyone from their family was sent to pick them up.

“He’s here, let’s go.” Gu Beihan spotted their butler standing by the car and told his sister.

“Young Master, Miss.” The moment Butler Gu saw Gu Beihan and his sister, he immediately came forward to help with their luggage.

“Thanks, Uncle Gu.” Gu Beihan smiled and thanked Butler Gu.

“Hello, Butler Gu.” Gu Beilin politely greeted Butler Gu in front of her brother.

“Hello, Miss. You must be tired from the trip. Let’s get in the car.” After Butler Gu finished packing their luggage and seeing them settled in, he began to drive back to the Gus.

“Uncle Gu, why exactly did the family want me to come back this time?” Gu Beihan didn’t believe it was just for a wedding ceremony. If that were the case, anyone from the family could attend, there was no need for him to return.

“It seems to be about Ms. Nangong.” Uncle Gu glanced at Gu Beihan through the rearview mirror and said.

“Ms. Nangong? Which one? I’ve never heard of her.” Gu Beihan searched his entire memory but could not recall a Ms. Nangong.

“It’s said that Ms. Nangong has been overseas all this while and only just returned.” Uncle Gu had also just heard about it vaguely, and wasn’t entirely sure.

This Ms. Nangong was indeed very mysterious. The entire Imperial Capital didn’t know that there was a lady in the Nangongs. The Nangongs had hidden her too well. The world didn’t know that they had such a pearl in their midst. If so many people didn’t know, let alone a small butler like him.
