Gu Shengyin had finally managed to soothe Madam Yan, convincing her that she hadn't suffered outside and had made her rest well afterward, she just felt that this was more exhausting than anything else.
The next day hadn't even dawned when someone came knocking on the door.
Mother Lin walked to Gu Shengyin's bedside and looked at her young mistress, who was still drowsy, feeling some heartache.
However, since Old Master Yan had sent for her, she had no choice but to wake Gu Shengyin: "Miss, please wake up, the Old Master has sent someone for you."
Gu Shengyin felt incredibly helpless as she got up, dressed herself, tidied up, and left the courtyard just as a sliver of light was breaking across the sky.
The hall was unlit, pitch-black. Coupled with the old furniture inside, it gave off an eerie, sinister feel.
Although Gu Shengyin was not afraid of these, it still fully awakened her.
