Chapter 952: Chapter 956 So Many Particulars
After becoming familiar with them, she realized that they were indeed ordinary people, flesh and blood, complete with emotions.
They had strengths and weaknesses.
They experienced happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy; experienced greed, obsession, foolishness, and irritation, just like any ordinary person.
Ye Xingbei quietly observed the people following behind Senior Master Xiang and whispered to Gu Junzhu, “I wonder which one of them is the person who killed Yaer’s mother. It’s a pity Yaer won’t be back until two days later, otherwise we could have brought her here.”
“Have you gone mad?” Gu Junzhu pinched her palm, “Today Uncle Xiang wants to induct Xiao Yue into the ancestral register, why would you bring Yue Yaer here? To make a scene?”
Ye Xingbei: “…Oh, right, I was only thinking about Yaer’s revenge and forgot about that.”
“Don’t worry,” Gu Junzhu said lightly, “The gentleman takes his revenge ten years later if necessary; Yue Yaer has already waited so long, a few more days won’t matter.”
Ye Xingbei nodded: “Mhm.”
While they talked, they walked into the living room with everyone else, and that was when Ye Xingbei realized that it wasn’t just their family visiting today but many others as well.
Those people, who were originally chatting and drinking tea in the living room, all stood up and greeted Senior Master Gu and Senior Master Xiang as they entered.
In these people, Ye Xingbei saw many familiar faces that she had previously seen on television, and was so startled that she leaned in and asked Gu Junzhu in a low voice, “What is Senior Master Xiang planning to do?”
“To add Xiao Yue to the family register. Once Xiao Yue’s name is entered into the Xiang Family’s register, he’s officially part of the Xiang Family,” said Gu Junzhu. “The old man takes this very seriously; it’s a ceremony witnessed by close friends and family.”
Ye Xingbei nodded, “Oh, it’s that formal?”
“Of course,” Gu Junzhu continued, “Looking at Uncle Xiang’s arrangements, everyone here will understand that he is grooming Xiao Yue to be the heir of the Xiang Family. Those who came here today are all keen; they will tell their descendants about Xiao Yue’s status in the Xiang Family after returning, so they know what attitude to adopt towards Xiao Yue from now on. The treatment that an heir of the Xiang Family receives is very different from that of an ordinary family member.”
Ye Xingbei sighed, “So many intricacies.”
Gu Junzhu looked at her sideways, “Y Country still has a monarchy, their class system is more explicit than ours. Wouldn’t that be more intricate?”
“Yeah,” Ye Xingbei nodded, “That’s why I don’t like Y Country at all. I much prefer it here.”
Gu Junzhu raised an eyebrow and chuckled, “I think you’ve fallen in love with a city because you’ve fallen in love with a person.”
Ye Xingbei: “…You really never miss a chance to sing your own praises.”
Gu Junzhu laughed and caressed her cheek, then pointed into the crowd, “See your grandfather over there? Go say hello.”
Ye Xingbei had just been dazzled by the sight of so many important figures and had not noticed her grandfather until Gu Junzhu mentioned him.
After all, he was her grandfather, and it would be rude not to greet him.
She hurriedly nodded, “Okay, let’s go say hello.”
Accompanied by Xiao Shu, the two made their way through the crowd to greet Senior Master Xie.
Ye Xingbei called out politely, “Grandfather.”

Xiao Shumiao followed suit, “Great-grandfather.”
“Good,” Senior Master Xie smiled and gently touched Xiao Shumiao’s cheek, his expression as usual, showing no hint of the trauma he had suffered from his granddaughter’s recent amputation.
An elderly man, looking hale and hearty but thin, approached and asked Senior Master Xie, “Senior Xie, is this the granddaughter you got back? The one named… Ye Xingbei?”
