Chapter 730 - Returning To The Chu Family (1/2)

”Senior Bai, it's been a while.” Yuan greeted him with a bow once the landed on the platform.

Senior Bai turned around to face him with a smile that looked slightly forced.

”The passage of time is different for someone like me, and time feels slower than in reality. One day might feel like one day to you, but for someone like me, one day feels like a few minutes.”

”Did something happen? You seem worried.” Yuan decided to ask him.

”Take a seat.” Senior Bai pointed at the chair.

Yuan nodded, and they sat down a moment later.

Meanwhile, Chu Liuxiang had just arrived at the Chu Family's household.

'This place looks gloomier than it does in my memories…' Chu Liuxiang sighed inwardly as she approached the massive steel gate that surrounded the Chu Family's territory.

After pressing the call button on the device at the gates, she waited for someone from the inside to answer it.

”Hello, this is the Chu Family. Who am I speaking with?” A feminine voice resounded a moment later.

”It's me. Hurry up and open the doors so I can speak with my parents.” Chu Liuxiang said out loud.

”Y-Young Lady?! Please wait a minute while I call a ride for you!” The person on the other side immediately recognized her just by her voice alone.

The gates immediately opened, and Chu Liuxiang entered into their territory without saying anything else, but she didn't go any further, as the actual building was a couple of miles away from the gates.

After two minutes of waiting, a limousine pulled up beside her, and an old woman came out of the car to open the door for her.

”Welcome back, Young Lady.” The old woman bowed to her.

”I'm not back.” Chu Liuxiang casually responded.

”...”

The old woman didn't have any response for such words, so she decided to remain silent.

Sometime later, they arrived in front of this massive mansion that looked more like a castle than a house a couple of miles away from the gates.

”Welcome home, Young Lady.”

Two rows of servants were already prepared to welcome her back at the front door.

Once they entered the building, Chu Liuxiang could see Sebastian standing not far away.
