Uncle Long courteously bowed and gestured toward the door after hearing his reply. Yu Tian did not expect him to react that way.

‘Am I being chased out?!

‘D*mn… Why did his attitude change so drastically?!’

Yu Tian was speechless. He still had so many doubts!

“I’ll answer your questions the next time we meet again. Now is not the time,” replied Uncle Long ambiguously before leading the young man back to the pavilion.

“See you next time,” he said to Yu Tian while smiling. Then, he walked into the pavilion alone.

Perplexed, Yu Tian shifted his gaze toward his three elder sisters who were nearby. They stared back at him. In the end, he forced a smile and shook his head.

‘Why is Uncle Long such a temperamental man? Why did he chase me out so quickly?’

Yu Tian simply did not understand. It was as if the older man was afraid to be asked more questions.

He approached his sisters but the three women simply led him out of the place quietly. It seemed like there was an unspoken rule between them.

After getting into the car, the talkative women began bombarding him with multiple questions.

Yu Tian smiled bitterly. He finally understood why women were called gossip queens.

“Elder sisters, I believe you already know the answers to your questions, and that you’re not supposed to know anything more,” he said plainly, mimicking Uncle Long’s way of speech.

Unexpectedly, this worked wonders. The women immediately stopped talking.

Frustrated, Chu Qing said, “They only chatted for a short while, but Yu Tian has already been infected by Uncle Long.”

“Elder sister Qing, who exactly is Uncle Long? Is he really capable?”

Yu Tian asked in a curious manner.

“Uncle Long is a senior member of the family. I heard that he’s almost in his seventies,” Chu Qing replied casually. Her answer surprised the young man.

‘Seventies?

‘He looked as if he was only in his early fifties!

‘Was this thanks to the power of cultivation that Uncle Long kept stressing about?’

Instinctively, Yu Tian caressed the delicate wooden box in his hands. He looked at it with expectant eyes.

It must be really precious since it was kept carefully in the Chu ancestral hall.

Yu Tian asked a few more questions but only received similar replies.

The women did not have the answers to his questions!

“Yu Tian, you don’t have to waste your energy. We are nowhere near the core of the family. Moreover, we’ve only met Uncle Long once before today,” said Chu Xin.

The young man stopped asking more questions.

Shortly later, the four of them arrived at home.

Yu Tian spoke with the women briefly before heading for his room.

He looked at the wooden box as if it was something precious. Finally, he opened it with the utmost caution.

The lock was undone and immediately, a pleasant scent filled the room.

Yu Tian could not help but inhale deeply. He felt extremely relaxed while indulging in the pleasant scent.

The item in the box was a piece of old, red satin that looked as if it had been stored for a long time.

Yu Tian picked it up with care and unfolded it, revealing an ancient book.

The cover of the book was made of animal leather. It was beneath a thick layer of patina and was still in good condition.

Only one word was written on the cover – Yu.

It was written in ancient writing, thus, it took Yu Tian a while to recognize it.
