Lu Yunli looked at the small porcelain bottle that Xu Lianxin had placed in front of him. He didn't move, but suddenly grabbed Xu Lianxin's hand: "Mother, are the people from the Glazed Tile Sect here to annul the engagement?"

Xu Lianxin looked at Lu Yunli, who was laughing hysterically, and tears welled up in her eyes. Seeing her once proud eldest son reduced to such a wretched and insane state, her heart ached terribly.
