Ye Chutang nodded. "We've waited long enough."
She glanced out the window. Withered yellow leaves spun as they fell silently, and a faint chill already laced the wind.
"It's getting cold. I'll have to get you all some new clothes later. The Capital City isn't like Jiangling. Once autumn passes, the weather will grow much colder, so you must be sure to stay warm."
Ye Jingyan and Ye Yunfeng agreed in unison.
In truth, their sister didn't need to tell them. They knew better than anyone just how cold the Capital City could get.
A soft rustling sound came from behind the folding screen. Ye Chutang turned to see a small head peeking out.
Xiao Wu rubbed her eyes. The next second, she keenly spotted the gauze on Ye Chutang's neck. She froze for a moment, then her little legs pattered as she quickly ran over.
'How did Sister get hurt?!'
Ye Chutang's expression softened. She bent down, pulled the little girl into her arms, and gently pinched her cheek.
