Chapter 248
“This is the entrance to the Wanhua (Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers), Young Master Xu. You can head in directly,” Yue Lou said as she brought Xu Ming to the valley’s entrance. “Martial Aunt Qin is waiting for you inside.”
Xu Ming nodded. “Alright, I understand. Thank you, Miss Yue. But aren’t you coming in with me?”
“There’s no need,” Yue Lou shook her head. “I’ve already seen Martial Aunt, and she’s doing well. Besides, the moment she woke up, the first thing she asked was whether you’d arrived. She’s been longing to see you. If I went along, wouldn’t I just be interrupting?”
“But speaking of which,” Yue Lou looked at Xu Ming with curiosity, “what exactly is your relationship with our Martial Aunt Qin?”
Xu Ming smiled. “We’re just childhood friends.”
“Just ordinary childhood friends?” Yue Lou’s gaze was skeptical as she eyed Xu Ming.
“That’s right,” Xu Ming nodded.
For now, their relationship truly was no more than childhood friends.
“Alright then,” Yue Lou replied, a bit disappointed that she hadn’t gotten the answer she wanted.
