Chapter 497 Apologies, Tian Hong

• In the quiet of the late night at Hofcaster Manor, the only sound that could be heard was the gentle patter of rain.
• "This year in Hofcaster, it seems that there is an unusually high amount of wind and rain," Huo Tianhong remarked after finishing applying ointment with the assistance of Peony. Wrapped in a blanket, he gazed out at the rainy night, his weary face reflecting a hint of indescribable emotion.
• Amidst the storm, he felt as though the vast Hofcaster Manor was as fragile as a flower in a mirror, a moon in the water, as if it could be destroyed by the storm at any moment, reduced to ruins.
