Chapter 304 Act freely (2/2)

Why would his master be angry? Didn't he always complain to the young master to train?

He thought of this and suddenly remembers something. His legs increase their speed as he nears his master. There is only one person who can calm the old man's temper.

”Master, the young Miss is also here. Master. Master, the young Miss came to visit with Inu. Master, I said--”

Housekeeper Hu continues to try and tell grandfather Ji, but his words went through one ear and out the other.

Grandfather Ji arrives at the back door. He reaches out to grab the door handle, but the moment he touched it, he stops.

His brows scrunch tightly and tries to think about something that Housekeeper Hu had said.

He heard the old man mention something about Inu. How did their topic change to Inu?

As he thought of this, in the far distance, he sees the young soldiers running.

Suddenly, his eyes widen when he sees a majestic beast running freely at the front. Its white fur dance smoothly against the wind like a movie.

He inhales an intense amount of air through his nose and froze in place.

After what felt like an entire day had gone by, his mouth finally open.

”H-Housekeeper Hu…. Is that Inu?”

Standing behind him, Housekeeper Hu sighed and lightly shook his head. He had been trying to tell his master, but he didn't listen.

He sighed again and spoke.

”Master, the young Miss brought Inu over this morning. They are currently outside with the young master and the solders. Also, the young Miss arrived when Miss Ji was here.”

”…..”

Grandfather Ji was dumbfounded. His eyes blink as if something had caught in his eyes. However, he cast a glare at Housekeeper Hu.

He is angry about what happened to Ji Jingxu, but knowing that Yue Ling is here… If he had gone outside to lecture the boy without knowing, he will definitely get lecture by her.

Pushing away his anger, he changes into a highly distinguish demeanor and pretends nothing happened. He pulls open the door and walks out.

”Mm. Mm. This one shall go watch too.”

Just as he took a step out, he stops and turn to shoot Housekeeper Hu another glare.

”You heard nothing and saw nothing.”

”…..”

Saying this, Grandfather Ji continues with his walk. His appearance completely knocking off the cold atmosphere he had.

Housekeeper Hu stood dumbfounded at the door. The old man was raging when he heard Ji Jingxu was hurt. Then he got angry when he heard that Ji Jingxu is out training.

Then now, he's acting as if none of this ever happened…

He shook his head and decides to not push it. After all, everyone knows how protective Yue Ling is towards her little brother. If the old man were to lecture the boy, Yue Ling would lecture him.

Walking towards the soldiers, Grandfather Ji sighed inside. He places both his hand behind his back and stare at the running group.

Amongst the group of young men, he can spot his grandson running behind the forth person in front. Although his frame is smaller in comparison to the others, he did not look out of place. He can even see the determination in the boy's face.

From young till now, he had always lectured the boy. It wasn't because he didn't love boy, but because he wanted Ji Jingxu to know that resilience is very important. No matter how much you fail, always get back up and strive forward.

However, after the boy started training, he notices that they spent less and less time together.

It's not that he isn't proud, he is very proud of the boy, but he misses seeing the boy inside and studying. Now, Ji Jingxu would finish his schoolwork and runs off to train.

Thinking these thoughts, he sighs but quickly sees something.

His granddaughter sat at the side like a fairy.

Despite her dark attire, she looked like an immortal looking down upon the mundane world.

Seeing her so beautifully, he couldn't help but be reminded of his wife and daughter.

A faint smile curl on his lip and he sighs again.

The reason why he couldn't stay mad at Ji Jingxu isn't because he favors Yue Ling. In fact, he loves and favors both equally. Of course, he also doesn't want to get lecture by his granddaughter for lecturing his grandson.

”Wroof! Wroof!”

Suddenly, a white fluff ball runs around Grandfather Ji. He remembers something and pat the little guy on the head.

A small chuckle escapes his mouth and he proceed forward.

'Ah, that's right. Since she is here, I should have her explain.'
