"Are you crazy? You're my mother's husband."
Fang Yuan was a little confused about this guy's thought process.
Besides, this guy used to be her mother's man, so no matter how desperate she is, she can't accept him!
"Your mother and I only had an agreement. Your father just said it, and everyone heard it."
Leo rubbed his neck and chest and said nonchalantly.
Although he doesn't know how this female absorbed most of his physical energy, his mental state is better than ever before.
He is still willing to exchange energy for peace and quiet.
"Excuse me, but I suspect there's something wrong with your brain. Would you please go get your head checked? The doctors in the Empire should be pretty good!"
Fang Yuan had absolutely no desire to deal with this madman anymore.
"Think about it. My Lei Mang clan is unique in the empire. I am the current head of the Lei family. You won't lose out by marrying me."
After saying that, Leo gave Situ Ze a provocative look.
"You shameless bastard, go home and dream about it. I will never agree to this," Situ Ze couldn't help but curse.
This idiot actually dared to say that. Has he really gone mad?
Or was she so shameless that she was just trying to get revenge on him?
"I really appreciate your high regard, but I have no interest in you or your Lei family. Please disappear." Fang Yuan said, pointing to the door.
"Don't be so absolute. You might change your mind someday!"
Leo chuckled softly, as if he hadn't been the one who had just gone mad.
He dusted off imaginary dust, turned around, and left the venue with an air of nonchalance.
"What kind of people are these? Is he sick in the head?"
She watched the guy walk away nonchalantly and arrogantly, and her eyes widened with anger.
I should have punched him to death just now!
"Yuanyuan, don't mind him, he's just a madman," Situ Ze comforted her.
The males he's planning to have for his females are all very capable, so he's not afraid of this madman at all!
"I understand, Father. Let's leave now. This dinner is not good at all!" Fang Yuan nodded.
What kind of people do you meet at a dinner party?
Seeing that Fang Yuan was about to leave, Jiang Nancheng quickly put down his wine glass and went to greet him.
"I apologize, this was my mistake. I didn't expect the Duke to be here. Let me escort you back to the royal villa to rest!"
"It's alright, he clearly came prepared. It's none of your business, just take us back!"
Fang Yuan is not one to take his anger out on others, and Jiang Nancheng had no say in whether those people could come.
As she spoke, Fang Yuan turned to look at Si Yaxiu and the other person who were following behind her, intending to walk together:
"By the way, do you two want to play a little longer? Or meet some acquaintances? You don't need to follow us."
These two individuals are clearly from privileged backgrounds, and they must have connections here.
It wouldn't be good to just leave with her; she's not that authoritarian.
“No need, I don’t know anyone here, and I rarely attend these kinds of banquets,” Si Yaxiu replied without hesitation.
He genuinely disliked attending these sycophantic dinners, after all, he already had someone he wanted.
As for the person who was secretly greeting him, he said he was blind and couldn't see them.
“Me too. Now that you’re gone, there’s no point in me staying here!” Ruan Baitang said even more bluntly.
He knows some people, but he doesn't have any close friends, so he'll just stick to spending time with the little female.
"Alright then!"
After these people left the banquet hall, the others began to whisper among themselves.
"You all saw what happened just now? This Duke Leo is truly extraordinary."
"Indeed, the Lei Mang clan is naturally very bold, and they dare to do anything outrageous!"
"Didn't you hear their agreement? That means they're still a novice!"
"That makes sense. Duke Leo is only forty years old. What's wrong with him looking for females at such a young age?"
"It's fine to look for someone else, but it's not right to look for a mother and daughter, is it?"
"Not really. After all, he only seemed to be matched with someone, but died before they officially started dating. He was a duke, after all. He couldn't have been matched for nothing, could he?"
"Have you missed the point? You haven't realized how formidable this female is!"
"You noticed it too? I thought I was just imagining things."
"That female just now reached directly onto Duke Ou's beast. I was shocked. Isn't she afraid of lightning?"
"·····"
Listening to these people gossip, Jiang Nanqing's lips curled up wider and wider.
It was truly unexpected; this little female's abilities are extraordinary!
"The interesting people have left, so these people are no longer interesting."
Jiang Nanqing also turned and left the banquet hall.
Although Fang Yuan didn't attend the banquet much, it left behind a legend about her.
······
Fang Yuan and Situ Ze stayed at the royal villa for three days before Jiang Nancheng came to tell her that the duke's mansion was ready.
The father and daughter made no attempt to be polite and said they wanted to go there.
Accompanying them were Si Yaxiu and Ruan Baitang, who had arrived early from their respective residences.
A villa and garden covering a thousand square meters, surrounded by a tall metal wall.
The villa is five stories high and is in the manor style.
In addition to the spacious main building, there are two villas of the same height on each of the left and right sides.
The three buildings are connected at the bottom, making the villa look like a behemoth.
Overall, it resembles the castle from my previous life, but it's more upscale and exquisite.
The color of the exterior is also very elegant and sophisticated; Fang Yuan fell in love with it at first sight.
"This is my residence? I didn't expect it to be so big. No wonder it took so many days to prepare!" Fang Yuan exclaimed.
They only walked around the main building in the middle.
The house is indeed nice; the living room and hall are both spacious, and there are many rooms upstairs.
The rooms on the upper and lower floors of the main building alone can accommodate more than ten people.
The buildings on the left and right sides don't seem to be much smaller than the main building.
I wonder what the people here are building these houses for?
Jiang Nancheng replied with a smile:
"This house is indeed too big. The butlers and servants are all temporary staff. If you like it, you can sign a long-term contract to stay. If you don't like it, you can change it."
Fang Yuan only awakened for the second time when he was almost at the Emperor Star.
The house and the title were both temporarily bestowed upon her by the emperor.
Originally, her title should have been Marquis and a smaller mansion.
"Let's keep these people here for a few days until I find someone, then I'll let them leave!" Situ Ze said.
Although he had been trapped for more than a decade, there were still some loyal servants in the Situ family.
However, they are all located at the Situ family's old residence.
Now that the female child is back, he should take the child back to the Situ family.
"Alright, we'll send them back once the lieutenant general finds suitable replacements!"
Jiang Nancheng was not surprised, since the other people who were granted titles had done the same.
These temporary servants were actually royals.
Aside from royalty, most people don't use it.
Of course, if he marries into the family, he will bring some with him.
However, those would be his own trusted confidants.
"Then we'll have to trouble them for now."
Fang Yuan glanced at the butler and servants who were respectfully waiting to the side.
Judging from the behavior of these temporary servants, they were undoubtedly royals and could not remain in her household indefinitely.
