Xu Hu Zhe crouched quietly in their corner of the courtyard, his gaze fixed on the intricate patterns of the cobblestone pathway. He wasn't one to draw attention to himself, preferring the solace of his own thoughts to any bustling activities around him. 

The scales on his face, remnants of his deeply hidden lineage, glinted softly in the sunlight, a reminder of his unknown past and his uncertain future.

Despite his humble origins, Xu Hu Zhe had found a place among the lucky members of the Xu family, thanks to the benevolence of Xu Feng. 

The young master had taken him in, offering him shelter, education, and a sense of belonging that he had never known before. But with this newfound security came a burden of knowledge, secrets that he carried silently within him.
