Since the age of nine, when Gu Yulan caused Tang Xiaobai to fall into the water, she has hardly appeared in any formal social occasion.
Anyway, in these years Tang Xiaobai could count on one hand the times she'd seen her.
Why has she suddenly been admitted to the top class of the academy?
"She has always been at home, rarely goes out; somehow, she used a fake name to take the exam. Only after the results came out, she revealed her true identity publicly. Even Fifth Uncle and Fifth Aunt didn't know beforehand," Gu Hui said, looking ashamed.
Tang Xiaobai laughed: "No need to mind so much. She has always been a person with her own ideas, knowing when to hide and when to reveal. It is normal for Fifth Uncle and Fifth Aunt not to be aware."
Fifth Aunt Gu, from the Han Family, is a very indifferent person and is not concerned with Gu Yulan, this daughter of a concubine, at all.
Truly indifferent.
Neither harsh nor nurturing.
So, it's not surprising Gu Yulan could slip away.
