Or perhaps, there was no need to listen at all, because both of them had heard that song far too many times, memorizing it from beginning to end by heart.
At the entrance to the balcony.
Will heard voices coming from the balcony, and as he hurried to turn around, he stopped Gan Tang, who was following.
"Shall we go have dinner instead?"
"But we haven’t called Uncle and Mommy yet." Gan Tang looked puzzled at the entrance he was blocking.
"No need to call them, they’ll come down on their own once they’re done."
Gan Tang was still worried, "I thought I heard something break just now. They’re not arguing again, are they?"
"How could that be." Will immediately shook his head, his hand already reaching out to support his small shoulder, "Let’s go downstairs first, and not disturb them."
"Alright then, it’s rare for them to have their world of two." The little guy turned around to go downstairs then heard a woman’s scream. He abruptly stopped in his tracks, "Uncle Will, I think I heard Mommy screaming!"
Will busied himself with covering up for the two, "You must have heard wrong, I didn’t hear anything!"
The little guy acknowledged him and was about to turn when another sound came from the balcony.
This time, it was even more obvious than before.
"I really heard it!" The little guy looked towards the balcony entrance worriedly, "Uncle Huangfu wouldn’t be angry because Mommy went out and is hitting her, would he?"
"Absolutely impossible!" Will hurriedly picked him up, "They must be practicing... combat, right... yes, that’s definitely it... Let’s go downstairs first, so we don’t affect their performance!"
While explaining, Will ran down the stairs carrying Gan Tang.
Meanwhile, he silently made up his mind that later on, he must remind the servants that they should never disturb Mr. Huangfu and Miss Gan when they are alone together.
When the early morning sun once again enveloped the entire estate, Huangfu Jue had also awakened very early.
Glancing at Gan Yuan in his arms who had a flushed face and ambiguous red marks all over her neck, the corners of his eyes immediately curled upwards naturally.
Gently kissing her forehead, he carefully withdrew his arm from under her neck, then delicately pulled back the thin comforter, before quietly slipping into his clothes and going downstairs.
Will was standing at the door, gazing towards the entrance.
Hearing footsteps, he quickly turned his face around, and seeing Huangfu Jue, he immediately walked toward him at a quick pace.
"Where are they?" Huangfu Jue asked.
"They have already called, and Jud is on the way. He should be..." noting the car entering the estate, Will relaxed visibly, "Look, here they come!"
Will ran down the steps and opened the back door of the car parked by the steps, and the elderly man with greying hair inside immediately stretched his legs out and carefully held up a black velvet box to the steps in front of Huangfu Jue.
The craftsman was none other than Jud, the company’s prized possession—a world-class premier jewelry designer and maker, so sought-after that countless celebrities from all walks of life couldn’t get on his waiting list.
Working overtime since yesterday morning, he had not slept yet.
His eyes were bloodshot from exhaustion, but thankfully, he hadn’t failed to meet Huangfu Jue’s expectations, successfully completing the ring according to his instructions by early this morning.
"Please take a look, is it to your satisfaction?"
Jud’s voice carried a hint of apprehension; the man who had summoned him overnight from abroad had done so for this ring, and although Jud did not know what it would be used for, he understood that this ring was of great importance to him.
If the outcome didn’t satisfy the other party, Jud knew he couldn’t bear the
