Gou Feng, unaware of their thoughts, continued,
"I heard he died tragically."
Fui carefully placed her sewing aside.
"Yes," she said.
"Both Lord Bai Lianhua and their only son passed away tragically together many years ago."
Her expression softened.
"It nearly destroyed the Third Pack Leader."
The living room fell quiet.
Gou Feng looked back down at the photograph, and for reasons he couldn't explain, his chest tightened painfully inside.
He studied Bai Lianhua's features carefully.
The gentle eyes.
The soft expression and his calm smile.
"What do you think?" Fui suddenly asked.
"Now that you've finally seen him."
Gou Feng considered her question seriously.
"He looks handsome," he replied honestly.
"Like an ordinary person you might pass by without noticing."
His gaze lingered on the photograph.
"But, because of his sleepy eyes and his fair complexion... He seems softer than most people."
Gentler, as though he carried kindness effortlessly.
