...
Upon hearing this, Huangfu Feifei raised her eyebrows.
What is this Tianyan Demoness up to? Even if Young Master Shouzhe is so outstanding, she shouldn’t lower her status to such an extent, should she? Even though she cos from a humble background, the Tianyan Demoness is still a Celestial Pride of the Celestial Human Realm, considered a Direct Disciple within the Academy. Why lower her status to this extent?
"This, this, this... Why to such an extent, why to such an extent?"
Wang Shihai nearly choked with frustration, his eyes dark and shadowy.
After all, Tianyan Fairy is the goddess in his heart. Why would she lower her status to marry his fourth grandfather as a concubine?
She even stooped so low, acted with such humility. What man could withstand this? It’s over, it’s over, his goddess would surely beco grandmother-level now.
Who would expect.
"Alas~" Wang Shouzhe sighed softly and shook his head, saying, "Thank you, senior, for your undeserved favor. Unfortunately, our Wang Family is rely a Seventh Grade Noble Family, with limited resources, unable to support more Celestial Prides. Here’s the paynt for attending the musical performance today, I shall take my leave now."
With that, he rose and placed down a stack of Gold Notes.
This stack of Gold Notes amounted to over ten thousand Qian Gold, far exceeding the usual cost, indicating that Wang Shouzhe had no intention of being involved with her anymore.
Without further ado, he effortlessly flew away, disregarding the change in Tianyan Fairy’s expression.
"Fourth grandfather, wait for ."
Seeing the situation turned unfavorable, Wang Shihai, despite his reluctance, could only quickly follow along.
"Hehe~ Young Master Wang truly deserves his reputation. Such determination." Huangfu Feifei, however, felt a secret joy in her heart, glanced pridefully at Tianyan Fairy, then followed Wang Shouzhe in flight.
...
anwhile.
Inside the Celestial Splendor Boat.
After Wang Shouzhe left, the smile that Tianyan Fairy forced onto her beautifully veiled face instantly vanished.
"I didn’t expect Wang Shouzhe to be so resistant, giving no chance at all." She pondered with furrowed brows, a hint of seriousness in her eyes, "Aunt, your judgnt surpasses mine. In your view, what kind of person is Wang Shouzhe?"
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged maidservant who had been silently standing in the corner stepped forward.
"I observed that his actions seem random, but actually have a pattern, with a sharp mind that’s unusual." Her attire remained the sa, but her back unknowingly straightened, and her dull eyes revealed a glimr, becoming wise and profound, "Miss, you are a Celestial Pride of the Celestial Human Realm, willing to lower yourself as a concubine, yet as the Patriarch of a Seventh Grade Noble Family, he remains unmoved, even showing strong resistance. This is quite abnormal. Either he is extrely cautious, unwilling to take any risks, or he is already on guard, having roughly guessed our intentions, showing strong resistance just now."
"Already on guard?" Tianyan Fairy’s eyes showed a hint of surprise, "Isn’t that impossible? The ’Struggle of the Imperial Sons’ has just begun, conflicts between counties are still beneath the surface. Even the Southern Desert Wang Family and Southern Desert Huangfu Family are unaware. How could a Patriarch of a Seventh Grade Noble Family be prepared?"
"It’s only a possibility, not necessarily accurate." The middle-aged maidservant’s gaze flickered, as if recalling sothing, and sighed, "The world is unpredictable, even an inconspicuous Loose Cultivator could beco a Purple Mansion Ascendant in the future. Throughout history, there have been many visionaries who could lead their entire family to glory. Rember, miss, anything is possible; a Black Tortoise Cultivator who wishes to live long must never underestimate anyone."
Seeing her like this, Tianyan Fairy knew her aunt must have thought of soone.
She felt a bit sour but didn’t know how to comfort her, so she respectfully nodded, "Yes, aunt, I understand."
The middle-aged maidservant withdrew her thoughts and continued, "Moreover, when Wang Shouzhe first saw you, his gaze was calm and composed, showing no forced composure, not even much respect for the Celestial Pride bloodline. If he was not experienced and knowledgeable, he wouldn’t display such behavior."
Tianyan Fairy nodded in agreent.
She was confident in her appearance and deanor. With her looks, aura, talents, and bloodline, she could compete with the "Langya Pavilion’s Seven Beauties" even in the Daqian Imperial Capital Gui Long City. In an ordinary Commandery like Southern Desert, her status could rival the Purple Mansion Seed from the direct lineage of Purple Mansion Family.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t be so sought after within Southern Desert County.
To remain so calm when first eting her, an ordinary Seventh Grade Noble Family Patriarch would certainly not be able to do so.
But she was still puzzled, "But according to the intelligence from Longzuo County, Wang Shouzhe seems to have never left Longzuo County. Coming to Southern Desert is already his furthest journey. How can he possess such insight? Could it be that our intelligence is incorrect?"
"It’s not entirely impossible..." The middle-aged maidservant nodded slightly, "Miss, don’t forget, our intelligence network in Longzuo County was established not long ago, and it’s possible to have so oversights. Of course, we can’t rule out the possibility that he’s had so fortuitous encounter. In any case, whatever the situation, this person deserves our further exploration and recruitnt."
Tianyan Fairy contemplated, "Aunt makes a valid point, this person and the entire Changning Wang Family are quite extraordinary, perhaps hiding other secrets. Who would have thought that such a re Seventh Grade Noble Family would be so remarkable, producing several Celestial Pride Seeds in the Academy, not to ntion a Great Celestial Pride daughter apprenticed under Celestial River Zhenren... How can such a potential-laden family not be worth securing?"
