Fairyland and jade pavilions, laurel palaces and orchid palaces are not as beautiful as these to describe this place.

Although Zhou Zheng Mansion is just a residence of the head of the family, it is located in a key position and is built as luxuriously as an earthly palace.

Jiang Zhige walked to the door of Zhou Zheng's mansion and was about to knock when he suddenly heard footsteps behind him.

Looking back, it was Nangong Rou's father, Nangong Zhen.

"Boy, what are you doing in Zhou Zhengfu?"

Nangong Zhen had a cold expression on his face, and as always he did not treat Jiang Zhige well.

Jiang Zhige faced Nangong Zhen, cupped his hands and said, "Uncle, I came here today to ask about Rou'er's marriage."

"What is there to ask? Your Rou'er will marry someone else in a month, that's all."

Nangong Zhen snorted coldly, walked around Jiang Zhige and walked towards the door.

Jiang Zhige tightened his grip and said in a deep voice, "Uncle! That young man in blood-stained clothes is definitely not a good guy!"

"So what? Do you think I care? Compared to you..."

"You are not such a person. Please take back your promise!"

Before Nangong Zhen could finish his words, he was interrupted by Jiang Zhige.

As he spoke, he looked up at Nangong Zhen, his expression more sincere than ever before.

Nangong Zhen paused. After a moment of silence, he asked calmly, "Then who do you think I am?"

"I"

Jiang Zhige's expression was slightly hesitant, unable to explain for a moment.

Nangong Zhen ignored Jiang Zhige and pushed the door open and walked into the house.

Jiang Zhige's expression changed slightly when he saw this, and he hurriedly wanted to follow, but was blocked outside the house by the door.

"Uncle, at least give me an answer!"

"Uncle! Uncle!"

No matter how Jiang Zhige knocked on the door, there was no movement in the house.

Jiang Zhige looked dejected, not knowing what to do.

If Nangong Zhen gave an explanation, Jiang Zhige could make other plans depending on the situation. However, not only did Nangong Zhen not give any explanation, he also kept discrediting himself, which made Jiang Zhige unable to guess what he was thinking.

Should he ignore the two elders' ideas and the consequences of eloping and run away with Nangong Rou? Jiang Zhige clenched his fists. Nangong Rou could do anything for love, but as a man, he couldn't be as emotional as Nangong Rou.

If the group of blood-robed monks put pressure on the Nangong family, Nangong Zhen would be forced to agree to the marriage. What consequences would the two people's elopement bring to the Nangong family? Nangong Rou's beautiful face appeared again and again in Jiang Zhige's mind. He struggled for a long time, but finally made a decision.

Jiang Zhige stood up and walked to the open space outside the mansion, then knelt down on the ground facing the door.

He took a deep breath and shouted to Nangong Zhen in the room: "Uncle, please help me and Rou'er!"

Nangong Rou is too important to Jiang Zhige. Now that Nangong Zhen is unwilling to speak directly, Jiang Zhige can only ignore the helplessness hidden behind the marriage for the time being, but he must know Nangong Zhen’s specific attitude.

No one knows a daughter better than her mother. This saying also applies to father and daughter. Nangong Zhen is not stupid. He can definitely guess that Jiang Zhige and Nangong Rou have the idea of ​​eloping.

If Nangong Zhen still opposes Nangong Rou and Jiang Zhige, with his profound cultivation in the Wanxiang Realm, how could he possibly let Nangong Rou leave Zixiao City?

You should know that a powerful being who has reached the realm of all things can instantly find the other party's position even if they are thousands of miles away.

Inside the mansion, Nangong Zhen's face was as black as coal, and he cursed inwardly: "This stinky boy, just elope if you want, why bother so much?"

In Nangong Rou's impression, Nangong Zhen has always been a dignified father who never shows his emotions. How would Nangong Rou feel if she knew that he agreed to marry Nangong Rou to the skinny young man because of pressure?

Not to mention Nangong Zhen, any father would want to save some face in front of his daughter.

Nangong Zhen was silent for a long time, and finally sighed deeply, saying helplessly: "Well, let me see how infatuated you are with my daughter."

Although he looked down on Jiang Zhige's background, he could not deny that Jiang Zhige was the best candidate to be Nangong Rou's husband.

Especially what Jiang Zhige said outside the door. Even though Nangong Zhen cursed inwardly, he was actually somewhat moved.

Nangong Zhen pretended to be indifferent in order to maintain his dignity while playing the bad guy and forcing Jiang Zhige and Nangong Rou to elope.

But he didn't expect that Jiang Zhige would trust him without hesitation.

You know, during the more than one month that Jiang Zhige stayed in Zixiao City, Nangong Zhen never gave him a good look.

Now that Nangong Zhen ignored him, Jiang Zhige still did not choose to take Nangong Rou away directly, but instead begged for his attitude and recognition.

It was late at night, and Nangong Rou saw that Jiang Zhige had not returned yet, so she couldn't help but run to Zhou Zheng's mansion.

After seeing Jiang Zhige kneeling outside the mansion, Nangong Rou's expression changed slightly, and she hurried forward to pull Jiang Zhige up.

Jiang Zhige stood still and said firmly: "Rou'er, go back. I will give you an explanation."

"Brother Zhige, what happened? Did my father ask you to kneel?"

Nangong Rou was so anxious that she was at a loss, and thought that it was Nangong Zhen who forced Jiang Zhige to kneel down.

Jiang Zhige shook his head and said, "No, Rou'er, it's your father's attitude that I want."

"What a bullshit attitude, why do you care about him, he's just an old bastard!"

Nangong Rou didn't care about that and tried her best to pull Jiang Zhige away.

Who knew that Jiang Zhige, who was at the seed level, was much stronger than Nangong Rou. He knelt on the ground like a root, not moving at all.

Nangong Zhen's face darkened when he heard the noise outside the mansion. He was secretly annoyed that he had not found Nangong Rou earlier and let Nangong Rou stay with Jiang Zhige for too long.

Nangong Rou was very well-behaved and sensible when she was a child. Now, Nangong Rou has become arrogant and rude, and even dares to directly call her biological father an old bastard. She must have been spoiled by Jiang Zhige during the eight years she stayed with him.

"Rou'er, you have some misunderstandings about your father. Give me some more time and your father will give me an answer."

Jiang Zhige's expression remained unchanged. There was still a month left, so he was not in a hurry to get Nangong Zhen to give an answer.

Nangong Zhen in the mansion nodded. Although Jiang Zhige was not good in other aspects, he was quite satisfied with his sensibleness.

Little did he know that Jiang Zhige was kneeling outside the mansion not because he sympathized with Nangong Zhen, but because he was afraid that he would be caught by Nangong Zhen if he eloped with Nangong Rou.

After Nangong Rou’s persuasion failed, she wanted to kneel with Jiang Zhige, but was rejected by Jiang Zhige.

It was not until the late night that Nangong Rou had to give up trying to persuade Jiang Zhige and returned to her residence alone.

Nangong Rou originally thought that Jiang Zhige would not kneel for too long, perhaps he would give up tomorrow, or perhaps Nangong Zhen would soon give the so-called "attitude".

However, a full week had passed and Jiang Zhige was still kneeling outside Zhou Zheng's mansion.
