The elders staggered, feeling faint. Until now, they had not spoken a word to him not because they do not want to, but because they were not able to. They were too shocked and caught off guard at the turn of events.
The elders looked at each other in dismay. They have watched Linfeng grow up. He was different from the other kids. When the kids had just learned to speak fluently and count 1-2-3, Linfeng was already learning how to read and write properly. When the kids' favorite stories were fairy tales and heroic adventures, Linfeng was already reciting the Zhou and Xiong families' traditions and history.
All this time, the young kid had never complained even once that he was tired of learning and training, unlike of other butlers of his age. He even surpassed his father's endurance and patience.
When asked what he wished for, he would just answer that he wanted what would benefit the Zhou family, to make the family flourish, and let them all be proud of him.
