Liu Qingsong saw a group of people in the pavilion, halted his steps, and surveyed his surroundings, "I thought for a moment I had run through the wrong gate."
"Qingsong bro, I haven't seen you for a long time, come here, let's catch up," Cheng Huailiang chuckled.
There was a reason they called Liu Qingsong "Qingsong bro." This group had played with Liu Qingsong since childhood, and Lady Xiao had treated him as family. They also didn't dare to belittle him, especially since Liu Qingsong often helped them with their tribe school homework. They all liked Liu Qingsong immensely. Particularly Cheng Huailiang, who had relied on Liu Qingsong's help to cheat at the Imperial College years ago, and managed to pass exams effortlessly and even received commendations from their instructors. They all felt that with Liu Qingsong around, they could play at ease.
Initially, Cheng Huailiang called him "Qingsong Sir," but it felt not intimate enough, so he changed it to "Qingsong bro."
