Yiqin was a little surprised to hear the young man address himself as Gu Chengyu. Gu Chengyu was a name she frequently heard her father mention, praised as exceptionally intelligent, with a character that balanced adaptability and integrity. Should he succeed in the imperial examinations, his future in officialdom was assuredly bright.
But what stunned her even more was that this Gu Chengyu was the same boy she had seen through the window two years ago.
Gu Chengyu waited for a moment but didn't hear a greeting from the other side, feeling somewhat puzzled. He had heard that the other party was a year older than him, so calling her 'senior sister' should be appropriate, right? Just as Gu Chengyu was confused, Yiqin suddenly realized her previous inattentiveness, and her face flushed slightly; how impolite of her!
She bent her knees in a slight bow as a return greeting and softly replied, "Junior brother, there's no need for such formality!"
