Liu Zhongyi's expression stiffened for a moment.
Sun Deqi's words really struck a chord with him.
This is what's troubling him the most right now!
But he couldn't force his granddaughter!
While obtaining the seal of office is important, we cannot sacrifice our granddaughter's happiness for the sake of obtaining the seal!
not to mention……
It's been over a hundred years!
Liu Zhongyi sighed inwardly.
He dedicated his entire life to upholding the honor of the Mingmu faction!
The responsibility on my shoulders is incredibly heavy.
Sometimes, I also feel a kind of inexplicable weariness.

Sun Deqi narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "What's the panic! Although Old Master Liu spoke lightly, I don't believe he doesn't care about the palm seal!"
Sun Botao looked puzzled, "Then why did he..."
Sun Deqi snorted: "Can't you see that? The conference is coming soon. So many years have passed, and nobody knows how the various branches have developed! This old man is very shrewd; he's probably trying to sell himself at a higher price!"
