Huangfu Jue turned back around, only to face forward again as Gan Yuan appeared in the garden, ostensibly there to find Gan Tang in the stable.
Could this woman be lost?
As he pondered, Gan Yuan changed direction, emerging from beneath the grape trellis, passing between the two trees with fiery-red blossoms, and made her way to the back of the stable.
On the balcony, Huangfu Jue’s blue eyes narrowed.
When he first bought this castle, there was a path under the grape trellis that led directly to the stable.
Later, when the garden was redesigned, that path was covered with grass.
The route Gan Yuan just took was exactly along that old path.
It’s not just the guests, even the new servants aren’t aware there ever was a path there, yet she knew to take this shortcut?
…
…
In front of the stable, Gan Tang watched the workers bathe the white horse.
“Xiaotang, don’t approach from behind!” she immediately cautioned upon seeing the young one’s eager demeanor, “If you approach from the back, it will perceive you as an enemy!”
Walking over to take his small hand, she led him to the front of a black horse while handing a freshly picked apple to Gan Tang.
“Well…
make friends with it, but be careful not to get bitten!”
The little one raised the apple towards the black horse, which snorted on it and without hesitation opened its mouth wide, biting into the large apple and unceremoniously snatching it from Gan Tang’s hand, gulping it down in just a few bites.
“You greedy fellow…” Gan Tang laughed as he extended his hand to gently stroke its neck, “Mommy, it’s really beautiful!”
Gan Yuan had taken him to ride horses at a riding club a few times; swimming and horseback riding were his favorite sports.
He had a particular fondness for horses…
“Since you like it so much, why don’t we draw it when we have time?
Then we can take it home with us,” Gan Yuan proposed with a smile.
“Yeah!” the little one nodded, “I’m going to draw the castle too, and take it with us.
When I grow up, I also want to earn enough money to buy a big house like this for mommy, so she can ride every day.”
Gan Yuan laughed happily, “The happiness of mommy’s later life depends on you!”
“Don’t worry,” the little one grinned in reply.
“Sorry to disturb you both,” a maid approached them, “Lunch is ready.
Please come to the dining room.”
“Let’s go, let’s eat!”
With a hand on the little one’s shoulder, the two followed the maid back to the dining room.
Will happened to be at the entrance of the dining room and respectfully opened the way for them to enter upon seeing them.
Not seeing Huangfu Jue, Gan Tang asked with curiosity, “Where is Uncle Huangfu?”
“The master says he’s not hungry; you two go ahead and eat.” Will replied.
With concern, the little one turned, “Is he not feeling well?”
Will returned a reassuring smile, “No worries, don’t fuss over it.”
The three of them took their seats, and the meal was served casually—not the Western fare, but authentic Chinese cuisine.
“Fearing that you might not be used to Western food, the master specially instructed me to hire a Chinese chef,” Will raised his hand, “Please enjoy your meal.
If there’s anything that doesn’t suit your taste, just let the servants and chef know, and they can make adjustments.”
Because Huangfu Jue wasn’t there, Gan Yuan felt especially relaxed, and the meal tasted exceptionally good.
After the meal, Gan Yuan originally planned to take the little one for a walk to relax before a nap, to adjust to the time difference.
With filming set to begin tomorrow—a sure sign of a hectic schedule—she didn’t want him to be too tired.
