Wang Jiqing finished speaking and turned slowly, walking toward the doorway with a steady, determined gait. His figure, framed by the sunlight, carried an unquestionable sense of authority. Reaching the entrance, he leaned out slightly and called out in a raised voice, "Xiue, Xiaochan, could you two come out for a moment?"
The sound cut through the quiet of the house. Moments later, Zhao Xiue and Yang Chan emerged, one after the other. Zhao Xiue’s eyes held a trace of confusion, while Yang Chan appeared entirely bewildered, her clear eyes shimmering with curiosity. Wang Jiqing looked at them, his expression grave, yet he softened his tone as he explained in detail the purpose of Wang Jianguo and his companions' visit.
As he spoke, the atmosphere both inside and outside the house seemed to freeze, everyone waiting for the response from Zhao Xiue and Yang Chan. Zhao Xiue was the first to break the silence. She patted Yang Chan on the shoulder, her eyes full of love and concern: "Xiaochan, your uncle and I share the same view. This is the biggest decision of your life; we won't make it for you. We’ll follow your lead entirely."
