The Third Elder, Qiguan Xiang, wore a grave expression, "I am powerless to help; I fear Second Brother won't survive another month. You all should begin preparing for his passing."
Having spoken, she turned and left, no longer lingering there.
As soon as the Third Elder, Qiguan Xiang, made her declaration, the uncles from the Situ Family began to bustling about, naturally tending to the funeral arrangements for Second Elder Situ Kong.
Coffins and the like had already been prepared well in advance.
Ji Ruyan watched as the Situ Family actually turned into this state, each one as cold as if they had no connection with her whatsoever.
These uncles, one by one, displayed a chilling indifference, even upon hearing the news that Second Elder Situ Kong was about to expire, they remained utterly unmoved.
Ji Ruyan furrowed her willow-shaped brows, and simply tugged at Situ Mengyue, who stood frozen in place, "Girl Yue, take me to see the Second Elder."
"Yes! I want to see Grandfather!"
