Bab 1696: Neither Servile Nor Overbearing

His pure and beautiful eyes sized them up unhurriedly before giving a small smile. "Good evening, uncles and aunties!"

He took the lead to speak and gained the upper hand in the show of strength. His voice may not be that clear, but he sounded calm and not secretive. No one could tell that he was just seven years old from his composed appearance.

A kid his age would be hiding timidly behind the father when faced with so many imposing and unfriendly seniors.

As for him?

Not only did he remain where they could see him, he also took the initiative to greet them. His enunciation was clear, neither servile nor overbearing, and his presence was extraordinary.

Perhaps it was not entirely apt to describe a child using the term 'presence', but this kid's wisdom and maturity truly left Mu Linfeng feeling stunned!

Mu Shumin, for her part, only let out a cold snort, tilting her head away as she ignored his greeting.
