Ouyang Mingjing felt considerably better now that he understood the situation.

However, in that moment, his gaze fell upon Qing’s face.

A proud smile formed on his lips.

He was on the verge of attaining everything he desired.

Deciding not to keep Qing hidden any longer, he spoke gently to her, “I still have a few matters to attend to. You may leave for now, and I will join you later.”

“…”

“Remember what I told you about being by my side?”

Qing didn’t answer verbally but nodded in acknowledgment.

“Very well. Keep it in mind. It will happen soon.” Ouyang Mingjing smiled, his expression filled with a sense of accomplishment.

Blushing, Qing’s face turned as red as a beet, the color spreading from her cheeks to the roots of her ears. She couldn’t help but feel bashful; her entire face displayed her embarrassment.

He hadn’t spoken those words lightly. It was something he truly intended.

Just as Qing’s heart raced, as if it were about to leap out of her throat, Ouyang Mingjing instructed her to depart.

Qing had just been escorted away when the Elder Men and Longqing entered. They had encountered Qing along the way.

The Elder Man appeared deeply displeased.

He halted his intended words and instead retorted, “City Lord, do you recall the promise you made to me?”

“…”

“You spared this woman’s life because you didn’t want to kill her. You also promised me that you would avoid getting involved with her.”

“….”

“Why is she here with you?” The Elder Man snapped.

Having witnessed the City Lord’s growth, the Elder Man had seen him act with thoughtfulness and seldom make mistakes. However, this time, he felt immense disappointment. Ouyang Mingjing had forgotten his promise and disregarded not only his own reputation but also the safety of Snow Territory.

He should never have kept this woman by his side.

Confronted with the Elder Man’s interrogation, Ouyang Mingjing maintained a composed demeanor.

He responded, “Did you hear what Longqing just told you?”

“Look at what she has done! Our guards provoked her maids, and she retaliated by severing their arms, paying no heed to my reputation. The Saint Divine Land and Snow Territory are distinct. She wants a clear separation between us,” Ouyang Mingjing complained. “Moreover, she shows me no respect. Why should I bother liking her?”

“…”

“Women should embody gentleness and kindness, unlike her with her lethal and rude nature!”

“….”

“Qing is the ideal choice! She likes me and me alone.”

“…”

“As for her…” Ouyang Mingjing shook his head slightly.

Evidently, there were numerous aspects of Gu Chaoyan’s behavior that displeased him.

The Elder Man sneered at this childish reasoning.

The City Lord appeared to be influenced by Acacia beans or intimidated by Phoenix Girl’s assertiveness.

Neither should hold any sway.

“Women should indeed possess gentleness and kindness,” the Elder Man smiled. “But those women are meant for ordinary men, not for you, City Lord. You are destined to stand apart from other men.”
