When Zhong Niangyao returned to the Zhong Family estate, it was already past midnight.
She proceeded cautiously, fearful of disturbing Old Sir Zhong and Old Madam Zhong.
Yet, to her surprise, as soon as she stepped through the door, she saw Old Sir Zhong waiting for her in the living room. For a moment, she actually felt a bit guilty.
"Hehe, Grandpa, you haven't gone to bed yet!" exclaimed Zhong Niangyao with a playful laugh. Approaching Old Sir Zhong, she cooed, "Staying up so late, you'll certainly meet your old friends tomorrow with huge dark circles under your eyes. They'll surely laugh at you."
"Stop being flippant," Old Sir Zhong said sternly, his face tight, "You know it's very late. So why have you only just come home?"
"Grandpa, today was an unusual situation!" Zhong Niangyao said, still smiling, "You know, I was assisting with a paranormal event! Ghosts don't exactly appear in broad daylight!"
