Book 2 - Fame Spreads

Chapter 29.1 - Returning Home

Winter’s bone-chilling rain silently poured down- neither too hard nor too light- knitting an exquisite veil, which shrouded the distant vision.

“Winter has come.”

“Indeed… another year has pa.s.sed.”

Before the He manor, two core servants were leisurely sitting in the gatehouse, watching the rain and sighing incessantly.

Suddenly, sounds of a hurriedly approaching horse entered their ears. Amidst the rain, a red-colored shadow, splas.h.i.+ng the rain water along the way, arrived before the He manor.

The two guards stood up in astonishment. They had never seen such a mystical horse. Therefore, although they didn’t know the person who had come, they didn’t dare be neglectful in the slightest.

After all, a person riding such a horse couldn’t be an ordinary figure. A normal person simply couldn’t afford such a colt.

The person who had arrived lightly pressed one hand on the horseback and effortlessly jumped down before the two servants.

Apart from the conical hat for the rain, an exceedingly familiar face appeared before them.

“Sixth young master, it’s sixth young master…”

The two faintly started, then immediately shouted in pleasantly surprised voices. One of them immediately rushed forward, whereas the other rushed back into the manor.

The sixth young master had already been away from the home for several months. During the family banquet, the Lord Master and the second Lord had brought this up many times. The servants were already attentive of this. Today, it was almost new year. Sixth young master’s sudden return was an exceedingly joyous occasion for the manor.

He Yiming handed over the horse’s reins to the servant and said, “This is a fine horse. Tell them to take good care of it.”

“Yes.”

The servant’s respectful voice gave He Yiming a familiar and relaxed feeling.

He was eventually back….

Although the treatment he enjoyed in the Fire Crow country’s Xie family was far above the treatment he enjoyed in his family, this was after all his home.

As soon as he stepped inside the manor, a strong feeling that one would only experience upon returning home burst out from his insides.

This was his home!

“Sixth brother, sixth brother….”

Along with a delighted voice, a youngster, rather short compared to He Yiming, rushed out from inside, unconcerned of the rain falling on his head.

“Yi Tao.” He Yiming immediately rushed forward. His speed was far beyond anybody present here. In a flash, he was before the former. With a chuckle, he took him in a hug.

“Sixth brother, you’ve returned.”

In a few moments, the entire manor knew the news of his return. Even his eldest brother and the third brother also made their appearance.
