Chapter 2596
2596 The mountain father and son’s mission (2)
Nodding her head, Leng ruoxue obediently followed the city Lord’s residence’s head butler out of the courtyard. She was led by the head butler to a courtyard that was about the same size as the previous one. The head butler then said to her,””Go in! The city Lord is waiting for you inside. ”
Hearing this, Leng ruoxue was slightly taken aback. What did he mean by the city Lord was waiting for her inside? The city Lord was going to participate in the semi-finals?
In reality, what Leng ruoxue didn’t know was that her second round of examinations was different from others. Because the head butler had already submitted her information and praised her, the city Lord of Luo city was immediately interested. He wanted to meet Leng ruoxue in private. If she was really as beautiful as the head butler described, he could open a special channel for Leng ruoxue and let her pass the second round of examinations.
However, Leng ruoxue was naturally not aware of this process. This was different from what the captain of the guards had told her. Hence, she did not expect to be able to meet the city Lord of Luo city so soon. However, this was a good thing for her.
Leng ruoxue was only stunned for a moment before she regained her senses. She nodded at the head butler and stepped into the unremarkable courtyard.
This courtyard was not an ordinary courtyard. It was the real main courtyard of the city Lord of Luo city. As the city Lord, it was inconceivable for him to live in such an unremarkable courtyard. However, Leng ruoxue had already received reports from treasure and the other little beasts, so she was rather calm about the fact that the city Lord of Luo city was living here.
Once they entered the courtyard, an attendant immediately led Leng ruoxue to a room. The attendant opened the door and let her in. However, the room was pitch black, and she couldn’t even see her fingers.
Seeing this scene, Leng ruoxue didn’t know how to express the feelings in her heart. At the very least, she was thinking,”what the hell is this?” Mysterious?
Suddenly, a beam of light shone on Leng ruoxue’s body. She subconsciously dodged, but the beam of light continued to chase after her. The beam of light slowly moved down from her face to her body, and it also provoked Leng ruoxue’s anger.
Yes! Leng ruoxue was furious! He was furious!
It was obvious that she was feeling emotional. A voice came from the dark corner,””You’re indeed a rare beauty. I’m very satisfied with you, so you can stay!”
“But I’m not satisfied with you. What should I do?” Leng ruoxue resisted the urge to beat him up and replied indifferently.
“Hehe! You’re still a little chili, but I like it!” The owner of the voice chuckled as he continued.
“I don’t like that.” Leng ruoxue was almost speechless. What was this fellow trying to do? Or was this Luo city’s city Lord a little shameful? “I hate people who pretend to be mysterious the most,” she continued.”You just happened to be right.”
“Beauty, calm down! I just wanted to create a sense of mystery. If I made you unhappy because of this, I’m very sorry. ” The owner of the voice coaxed patiently.
“I don’t think there’s anything mysterious about you. Could it be that you’re so ugly that you can’t be seen? Or are you afraid of scaring me because you’re too old?” Leng ruoxue said on purpose.
“Hehe, beauty, don’t worry. I’m neither ugly nor old. You’ll definitely be satisfied with me.” When the owner of the voice heard Leng ruoxue’s words, he laughed happily.
However, after Leng ruoxue heard his words, she could not help but frown. From this guy’s voice, she could not tell how old he was. It could be said that his voice was very young. However, to be able to become a city Lord, how could this man be young?
However, this fellow was hiding in a dark corner and refused to come out. For a moment, Leng ruoxue, who had been hiding her strength and did not want to reveal it too early, could not do anything to him.
How could she provoke this man to come out? She had to at least confirm who this guy was, right? After some thought, Leng ruoxue said,”since you’re neither old nor ugly, then come out and let me have a look!” As the saying goes, seeing is believing. If I don’t see it with my own eyes, how can I know if you’re telling the truth or not?”
Hearing Leng ruoxue’s distrustful tone, the city Lord of Luo city sighed helplessly before saying,””Alright then!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the room lit up. A handsome man walked towards Leng ruoxue.
Finally seeing the man’s true face, Leng ruoxue blinked her eyes but did not say anything. The man could not help but tease,””Now that you’ve seen my true face, how is it? are you satisfied?”
When Leng ruoxue heard this, she sized the man up seriously.
The man in front of her was indeed good-looking, but he was far from being a demon. The gap between them was even greater. Especially since this man was holding a folding fan in his hand and looked extremely handsome, Leng ruoxue immediately gave him a zero. Otherwise, he would be considered as someone at the extreme level! However, a fan had destroyed him, because the man holding the fan was one of the men she hated the most in her life.
This kind of man, no matter how handsome he was, he was not her type!
Seeing Leng ruoxue’s conflicted expression, as though she was not satisfied with him, the city Lord of Luo city felt depressed. He could not help but say,””Beauty, you can’t find another young talent like me on the Haotian continent! So, you have to know how to seize the opportunity, understand? The competition among the daughters of the aristocratic families is so intense that it’s beyond your imagination. However, I still have high hopes for you, and my heart is on your side. ”
She didn’t care! He really didn’t care!
Even though Leng ruoxue really wanted to shout back, but in order to quietly observe the changes, she held it in.
After taking a few deep breaths and adjusting her agitated emotions, Leng ruoxue pretended to hesitate and asked,””You really think highly of me?”
“Of course, out of all these women, you are the one that moved my heart the most.” Luo city’s city Lord spoke the truth. His eyes were filled with deep affection as he looked at Leng ruoxue with a fiery gaze.
However, Leng ruoxue was not too interested in his gaze. On the contrary, Leng ruoxue even looked at the other party valiantly and said,””But I don’t even know who you are. How do you expect me to believe you?”
Faced with Leng ruoxue’s doubts, the city Lord of Luo city turned pale with fright.””You don’t know who I am? How is that possible? you must know that almost everyone in the Haotian continent knows me. ”
“Uh! Can I say that I’m one of the few people who are not like you? I really don’t know who you are. I only know that you are the city Lord of Luo city. But this is obviously not enough for a person who wants to entrust his life to you. So, if you are sincere, you should first tell me about your eight generations of ancestors! My grandfather said that I can’t marry someone whose eight generations of ancestors are unclear!” Leng ruoxue said with a worried look.
“Are they that strict?” The city Lord of Luo city obviously couldn’t believe it.
“It’s related to a woman’s lifelong event, so how can it not be strict and cautious!” Leng ruoxue said in an unpleasant tone.
“That’s true, hehe! I’ve been overthinking, but I can only tell you my name now. I’ll tell you the rest when I have the chance in the future. ” The city Lord of Luo city thought for a moment.
