The South China Sea Glass Palace is the most beautiful place on the entire South China Sea continent. It is a combination of ecological environment and magnificent palace. It is named after the colorful glass. The production of glass ornaments is the main source of income for the South China Sea Glass Palace. The entire palace is decorated with glass. The noble and gorgeous glass, which is naturally simple, has flowing colors and is beautiful. Its quality is crystal clear and dazzling, making the entire palace as beautiful as a crystal palace.
A deep, hearty laugh echoed from the front hall of the South China Sea Glazed Palace. "Haha! Yifei! Seeing you here makes me feel like I've aged another year."
Even though he is over fifty years old, Nangong Yuze is still handsome and walks with great speed.
“Uncle Nangong, Yifei has come every year and has never noticed any signs of aging in you. As far back as Yifei can remember, Uncle Nangong has always been so dashing and handsome.”
"Haha!" Nangong Yuze was overjoyed. "Yifei! You have such a sweet tongue! You make me so happy. Every time you come, I'm so happy." Nangong Yuze was so happy he couldn't stop smiling. Suddenly, he thought of his daughter and Dongfang Yifei's purpose. Nangong Yuze's eyes flickered, and he stopped talking.
"As long as Uncle Nangong is happy, that's all that matters. Every year when Yifei comes, he's captivated by the elegant and warm decorations of this Glass Palace. He never wants to leave. The glass ornaments in the corridor are a bit different from previous years. Have they been changed again this year? This unique style is even more wild and attractive, full of wildness and tension, exuding a unique and compelling aura that inspires imagination. Especially this wealth-attracting Pixiu glass ornament, it's simply lifelike." Dongfang Yifei looked at the glass decorations and furnishings on both sides of the corridor and exclaimed in admiration. "No wonder it's the South China Sea Glass Palace. Things that others treasure are readily available here."
"Hmm! Yifei! I also really like this style. You described it perfectly. These are all things that Yan'er came up with in her spare time. She recently fired a seven-colored peacock and rose glass vase, its colors are crystal clear and dazzling. This process requires dozens of meticulous manual operations, like a peacock dancing gracefully in a rose garden. The slightest negligence can lead to failure or flaws, but this time it was a great success. The blueprints were also designed by Yan'er, and they are very beautiful. The roses were also her idea. Once it's on the market, it will definitely fetch a good price." Thinking of his clever and mischievous daughter, Nangong Yuze's eyes were filled with undisguised doting and affection. However, she hadn't been in the Glass Palace recently, which made the whole family quite uneasy. He hoped that his two sons would find Yan'er soon.
"Yan'er is truly talented; I have no idea how she came up with these strange and wonderful things."
The mere mention of Nangong Ziyan reminded Dongfang Yifei of her words, and a pang of unease instantly gripped his heart. No, he had to make Nangong Yuze agree to let him marry Nangong Ziyan. This Nangong Ziyan was not as simple as she appeared on the surface. The Venerable Yunxiao could not have gone there for no reason at the moment Yan'er was born.
"Hmm! Even I, her father, don't understand the strange and wonderful things in her head!" Nangong Yuze beamed as he talked about his daughter's deeds.
Dongfang Yifei calmed himself down and said with a smile, "Uncle Nangong also knows the purpose of my visit. I have been waiting for Yan'er for many years, and Yan'er has reached the age of marriage. I have come here to ask Uncle Nangong to grant my wish."
Upon hearing this, Nangong Yuze stopped in his tracks, narrowing his eyes as he looked at Dongfang Yifei. Was this exactly what he feared? This was the last thing Nangong Yuze wanted to discuss; his daughter had run away from home because of it.
“Yifei! As long as you and Yan’er are in love, I will naturally grant you this blessing! But right now, Yan’er has run away from home because of this. Chen’er and Qi’er went to look for her and haven’t returned yet. Yan’er has always been very opinionated. She won’t do anything she doesn’t want to do, even if you put a knife to her throat. Since Yan’er hasn’t given her consent, I dare not make a decision on my own.” Nangong Yuze said bluntly. He knew his daughter’s personality all too well. It wasn’t something he could just say and Yan’er would marry Dongfang Yifei.
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Yifei clenched his fists in anger. These three men were trying to prevent him from marrying Nangong Ziyan in a roundabout way. Did they think they could treat the arranged marriage from when they were still children as a joke?
"Uncle Nangong, since ancient times, marriage has been arranged by parents and matchmakers. This is just a matter of a word from you, Uncle Nangong. Besides, this was a promise made by my mother and Aunt Jiaorong themselves. No matter what, the South Sea Glazed Palace cannot break its promise to the Eastern Region!" Dongfang Yifei said with a half-smile, bringing up the issue of credibility between the two major regions. He didn't believe that Nangong Yuze would not take it seriously. He, Dongfang Yifei, was determined to marry Nangong Ziyan, and no one could take her away from him.
“Yifei! This matter is indeed a promise that your mother and I made back then. However, it wasn't me who brought it up first, but your mother. My original words were that as long as Yan'er grows up and you two are in love, we, as her parents, will naturally be happy to let you be together. But Yan'er actually ran away from home because of this matter, so our Nangong family has to reconsider this matter.”
A gentle voice came from behind them. Nangong Yuze and Dongfang Yifei turned around and saw Sima Jiaorong, dressed in a gorgeous peach-colored dress. Her face was as beautiful as a lotus flower, and her hair was styled in an exquisite bun with gold and jade hairpins. She was elegant and refined, and she was walking towards them surrounded by two maids.
"Yifei greets Aunt." Although Sima Jiaorong's words displeased him, Dongfang Yifei still respectfully bowed to her.
"Yifei, we all know why you've come, but right now Yan'er is missing. In my opinion, we should wait until we find her before discussing this matter further." Sima Jiaorong's face was full of worry. Her woman had run away from home, and the reason for her departure was right before her eyes. She couldn't be happy at all.
“No, Aunt, Yifei already met Yan’er on his way here, but Yan’er didn’t want to come back with Yifei. Instead, she was with a man wearing a mask. Yifei was afraid that Uncle Nangong and Aunt would be worried, so he rushed over. Moreover, Ruichen and Jingqi also found Yan’er, but Yan’er…” Dongfang Yifei suddenly stopped speaking and did not continue.
