Chapter 266 - 46 Master and His Family
Liu Yishou’s martial skills were, to put it lightly, unfathomable. Whoever had injured him was definitely not a simple person.
"Girl, you’re asking so many questions at once, which one should I answer first?" Liu Yishou felt that the girl in front of him had really grown up. Compared to her mischievous behavior when she was younger, her now polite and gentle demeanor was even more endearing. He couldn’t help but lament how quickly things had changed.
"Then just take your time! I have all the time in the world to listen," Gu Xiaoxi chuckled.
"Come, first tell your master. How come you’re in City A? After your mother passed away, what have you been up to?" Liu Yishou asked Gu Xiaoxi, his concern for these issues was paramount.
Gu Xiaoxi’s cheeks turned slightly red upon hearing this, then she explained, "I was adopted, which is why I’m in City A. Master, after you all left, there was no one to take care of me, so I was forced to be adopted."
The helplessness on her face said it all—her adoption was not something she had agreed to willingly. "But, Master, you don’t need to worry, I am living quite well now. How about you come home with me today? You could stay with us from now on," Gu Xiaoxi pleaded sweetly as she held onto his arm.
"I’ll think about it when I have the time. Today I have to make a trip home first. I’ve been away for so many years; with no one to look after the rascals at home, who knows what they have turned into," Liu Yishou spoke, then turning his head to Gu Xiaoxi added, "Now that I’m back, you’re coming home with me. You’ll be my granddaughter and my disciple. Once I’ve passed on the tricks of the trade in antique appraisal, you’ll follow in your mother’s footsteps and do some antique business."
"Ah!" Gu Xiaoxi was astonished!
The master wanted her to learn the art of antique appraisal and to engage in antique trade?
After a moment, she laughed softly, "Master, do you really think I’m cut out for this?"
