Chapter 501 An Family Martial Training (4)
After spending so much time together, it was impossible for her family not to notice that she had secrets. Even if Kong Shi and Old Lady An couldn’t guess, the astute Old Master An and the shrewd An Zisheng must have had their suspicions. Take the matter of her seclusion for example; once she entered the Ancient Space, she wouldn’t emerge for days on end, and the An Family couldn’t possibly naively believe that An Yiqing simply stayed in her bedroom all that time.
Yet, they asked nothing and said nothing, silently standing behind her in support. Such profound familial love touched An Yiqing deeply, filling her heart with immense gratitude.
"Grandma, where are Grandpa and the others?" She looked around the villa, noting the silence of the rooms.
As Old Lady An tidied up, she responded, "Your grandpa went out to chat with those old buddies of his. Your dad and your older and second brothers are all at work. Xiao Gu is out handling some business too. They’ll be back by this evening. Looking at the time, they should be arriving soon."
Old Lady An glanced at the antique grandfather clock in the corner of the living room, then, as if something suddenly dawned on her, she smacked her forehead with a palm.
"Oh, look at my memory! Niuniu, it’s such good timing that you came out. This Saturday we’ve arranged to meet with the Gu Family, and if you hadn’t come out, we would’ve had to postpone it!"
Her grandmother’s words made An Yiqing stare in surprise, and she promptly remembered the day set for the Gu and An Families to meet. Counting the days, today was Thursday, which meant that there was only one more day until the lifelong matter between her and Gu Yelin was to be discussed?!
The thought of ’engagement’ made An Yiqing feel as though a tiny kitten was tickling her heart, causing a flurry of anxious excitement. A delicate flush crept over her pretty face.
