The young boy’s obedient appearance made Gu Jin unable to resist ruffling his hair.
After withdrawing her hand, she turned around and returned to her room.
The boy behind her watched her back, feeling that he already missed her even before they parted.
...
Gu Jin left.
She took a week off from school, and since her grades were among the top in the class, the teacher approved her leave after understanding the reason.
After Gu Jin left, An Mingji went to school alone every day, then ho, ate, fed Duoduo, slept, and got up.
Ti passed very slowly, and he felt an emptiness inside. He even stopped playing the gas he couldn’t put down before.
Yu Shuo also knew that the master had left Wanhai and went to Shenzhen.
He ca to check on An Mingji every day.
Seeing the boy’s vibrant youth dimd, he secretly laughed to himself, not expecting the boy to be so attached to the master.
He truly was just a little kid.
Although he laughed inside, his actions were not left undone.
He ca to the house every day to check on An Mingji, only leaving after seeing he was okay.
Four days passed, and Gu Jin still hadn’t returned.
Instead, the living room was piled high with various packages.
Yu Shuo also curiously asked about the contents of these packages, but An Mingji shook his head, saying he didn’t know either.
However, judging by the dicinal scent emanating from the packages, it wasn’t hard to guess they contained herbs, but without opening them, no one knew for sure what was inside.
Facing these packages, An Mingji’s gaze was heavy.
In his eyes, they were the culprits causing him not to be with Sister Jin.
He seed to revert to his previous uneasy, sowhat gloomy self.
However, before his mood could darken, Gu Jin returned.
Her return was quiet and unnoticed.
The surprise struck fast, leaving An Mingji dumbfounded on the sofa, staring subtly at Gu Jin standing at the door.
He even doubted whether he was dreaming again.
Gu Jin walked over to him, touching his head, the real touch finally pulling An Mingji back to his senses.
"Sister Jin, you’re back!"
The boy quickly stood up, embracing the person in front of him, unable to suppress the joy and delight in his voice.
Gu Jin patted his head, laughingly asking, "What were you just thinking about? You didn’t even react when you saw ?"
"Nothing, just felt like I was dreaming. Why did you co back so late?" The boy’s voice carried a trace of hidden complaint and grievance.
"What, did you miss ?"
"Yes, I did!" The boy admitted without hesitation.
Gu Jin’s expression was montarily stunned, then she bead: "You’re such a sweet talker. Let see if you secretly ate so honey?"
She reached out to cup the boy’s face, her face and eyes brimming with laughter.
Then, before he could speak, her hands started to gently pinch and play with his face, not wanting to let go.
An Mingji freed his face, gazing resentfully at Gu Jin.
"There, there, look at the good things I brought you."
Gu Jin opened her suitcase, revealing its contents.
An elegantly crafted guzheng with intricate carvings, a finely made pen, a set of black and white Go pieces, and brushes of various sizes, all things An Mingji could use.
After placing them on the table, Gu Jin smiled at the boy in front of her, "Do you like them?"
An Mingji reached out to touch the guzheng, finely crafted with intricate, non-feminine carvings.
In his current study of music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, all these things were necessary.
In truth, his continuation of these studies was rely to fulfill his grandmother’s wishes; if she wanted him to understand, he would learn.
