The General's Return

The day went by quickly and even before Jiang Ying Yue knew she was already standing at the entrance of the Gu Manor along with Gu Chen, his mother, and the servants of the manor as they all waited for the General's arrival along with Young Marquis.

"Are you nervous or excited?" Jiang Ying Yue asked Gu Chen as she came to stand next to him. She could clearly see the young man fidgeting around as his eyes were fixed on the entrance of the manor.

"I'm feeling both. I'm excited to finally see and meet my father and brother after so many years but at the same time, I'm feeling anxious about facing them in such a state. Do you think they will hate me for my incompetence?" Gu Chen couldn't hide his nervousness in front of Ying Yue, not like he was trying to in the first place.
