He climbed down from the donkey and approached to ask in a flattering manner:
"Mother...why is my wife here?"
Luo Xue looked at him fiercely and asked loudly:
"Where have you been?"
“I…I’ll go…”
As he spoke, he looked around and saw the gatekeeper pointing to the west. He simply replied:
"I went to the west of the city. They were short of manpower just now, so I went to provide support."
"Open your mouth..."
"ah?"
"Open your mouth..."
"ah……"
Luo Xue leaned forward and sniffed, her brows furrowed, and she suddenly asked angrily:
"You went drinking?"
“No…no.”
"You reek of alcohol and are still lying?"
Leng Ming saw that he could no longer conceal the truth, so he nodded.

Luo Xue didn't want to delve into this issue any further, so she asked again:
"You're late for work on your first day today. You deserve to be punished. Don't eat lunch or dinner today."
"If you don't want to eat, then don't eat. I'm staying at the city gate today and I'm not going back."
After saying this, Leng Ming simply straightened his neck, led his pony donkey, raised his head, and walked towards the city gate.
Seeing his indifferent look, Luo Xue's brows instantly twisted into a knot.
This Leng Ming, who had left this morning looking so dusty and grimy, was suddenly so arrogant? There had to be something wrong.
So, she half-closed her eyes, made up her mind, turned around, jumped on her horse, and headed towards the city.
