Ji Kongmeng's face was buried in something soft, and she almost suffocated. She endured it for a long time before she managed not to push the person away.
Because it can't be pushed open.
I've tried it countless times before.
This woman only listens to what she wants to hear, and pretends not to hear anything else.
They disregard the will of others and do whatever they want.
Going against her will only bring unnecessary trouble.
If you go along with her, there will be room for negotiation.
Ji Kongmeng tested the waters several times before arriving at this conclusion.
The hardships involved are too numerous to recount in detail.
I just hope that the two foolish brothers the city lord mentioned won't let his sacrifice go to waste.
They were able to escape successfully, make contact with Su Hanjiang smoothly, and then successfully rescue him.
Before he lost his virginity.
Last night, after much refusal, I finally managed to get out of it.
If no one comes to rescue him today, he'll be in trouble.
The city lord carefully folded the incantation drawn by Ji Kongmeng and placed it near his heart, then patted it with great relish.
She was so engrossed in their sweet nothings that she completely forgot why she had come here at this time.
Ji Kongmeng reminded her:
"Does Your Excellency have any instructions for coming at this time?"
The city lord then released his grip, affectionately stroking Ji Kongmeng's beautiful face:
"It's nothing serious. Some people outside just want to see you. I'll just turn them down later."
That won't do.
Although Ji Kongmeng was anxious, he also understood that to deal with someone like the Lord of Guixu City, he couldn't directly go against their wishes.
Instead, we should patiently guide and persuade, taking advantage of the situation and placing ourselves in a weaker position.
To get the other party to change their mind, take the initiative to compromise, and make the decision they want.
The best approach is to show weakness.
Those who are stubborn will choose to confront directly.
This mentality, to put it bluntly, is gambling.
Betting on your importance in the other person's eyes.
One wrong move and everything is destroyed, with no hope of redemption.
A person like Ji Kongmeng would not choose this method.
After hearing the city lord's words, his eyes reddened and became slightly moist.
It was an obvious grievance that anyone with eyes could see, but Ji Kongmeng still obediently nodded and said:
"Just listen to the adults, I'm fine with whatever they say."
The city lord was heartbroken, but his sweetheart wouldn't say it out loud.
It's driving me crazy with worry.
"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"
Ji Kongmeng wiped away his tears with his fingers, and said in a humble and conciliatory manner:
"It is wishful thinking on my part that you have never made a mistake."
No!
You're not the one indulging in wishful thinking!
The city lord could not understand the deeper meaning in Ji Kongmeng's words no matter what, but fortunately she was a straightforward person and did not like torturous love affairs.
There are things that must be said clearly: "Young master, what do you mean by this? If you do this, I will be heartbroken!"
As she spoke, she even started to shed tears.
But instead of sliding down her cheeks, her tears actually rolled off her red dress and onto the ground, one by one.
Tears that turn into pearls are the tears of mermaids.
Each pearl glitters and sparkles, luxurious and beautiful.
Just like her.
No one could help but be moved by her tears.
They are often shocked and delighted.
Captivated by its beauty, he revealed a greedy expression.
This kind of expression is, of course, what the Lord of Guixu City hates the most.
However, Ji Kongmeng's face showed heartache.
He said quite earnestly, "My lord, please don't shed tears for me. I am too weak and unworthy. I am not even worthy to stand with you and receive everyone's blessings. Please stop shedding tears for me."
The city lord shed even more tears.
A glimmer of light flashed, and suddenly a dazzling sapphire blue pearl appeared in her hand.
This pearl is unlike any other; it is very large and does not appear to be formed from tears.
It's more like a pearl or something similar.
The city lord placed the pearl in Ji Kongmeng's palm.
She gently pressed her forehead against his and whispered:
"How could that be? Only you are worthy to receive the blessings of the people of Guixu alongside me."
The objective has been achieved.
However, the pearl in his palm was burning hot.
The pearls are real.
The city lord's loyalty is genuine.
But it was precisely because it was real that Ji Kongmeng felt a pang of unease in her long-dormant compassion.
He couldn't understand where the city lord's fervent emotions came from.
They came on strong and unreasonable.
It can't just be because of this appearance, can it?
She's lived for nearly a million years; what kind of man hasn't she seen?
How could she fall deeply in love with a mere, calloused young man?
Ji Kongmeng witnessed too much betrayal in his childhood.
He finally managed to become Su Hanjiang's disciple.
With the care and love of everyone in the sect, a cold heart gradually warmed up.
He had already resolved that he would not show any kindness to anyone other than the people in the valley.
But today, he felt a pang of pity for this woman he had only known for less than two days who had pressured him to marry her.
If Master finds out, will he be angry with him?

During the banquet, amidst the commotion, Ye Wan suddenly sensed someone behind her.
Peeking over furtively, I was startled:
"division--"
Her voice was a bit loud, drawing the attention of the guests.
Chu Yiming and Han He, disguised, frantically winked at her.
Ye Wan suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "Another lion's head meatball, please!"
The shrimp vendors, who were in charge of serving the dishes, quickly responded and served one serving.
But the gazes drawn by that sound lingered for a long time.
The main reason is that the three of them are too eye-catching.
The main hall was spacious, and everyone was immersed in the joy of the banquet.
