Mrs. Lin was keeping a close watch as Mr. Gu Sr. and his grandson drank together. She was almost dozing off when Mr. Gu Sr. suddenly barked his command. She jolted up with a start and was instantly awake.

She was worried that she had misheard, and asked, “Master, did I hear correctly that you want me to help the Young Master up to his bedroom?”

Mr. Gu Sr. looked at her with an expression of angry contempt on his face as he replied, “You don’t say! Where else should he go if not back to his room?”

“But…”

Miss Weilai was sleeping in the Young Master’s room at that very moment!

Before she could utter the rest of her sentence, she was cut off by the Master’s warning look in his eyes. She swallowed nervously and replied, “Yes. I will help the Young Master up to his room now.”

“Hold on!” Mr. Gu Sr. spoke again and motioned with his finger for Mrs. Lin to come closer.

Mrs. Lin leaned her ear over without a second word.

“Remember to lock the door!”

Mrs. Lin was speechless.

Mrs. Lin bent forward and helped her Young Master up. With much difficulty, she finally managed to maneuver him upstairs.

As Mr. Gu Sr. watched the both of them leave, he leaned back on the couch, beaming. He picked up the photograph, and said to the couple in it, “The both of you left early not having accomplished anything major. Tonight, you’d better keep a close eye on your son, you hear me?”

Mrs. Lin helped Gu Yu into the room and laid him on the huge bed before finally releasing a huge breath.

She had watched the Young Master grow up, from a tiny little boy, into the handsome and das.h.i.+ng lad that he was now. She was very proud of him and very happy.
