Journey to the End of the Night
Chapter 1576 - 961: Picking Up the Golden Goblet, Kneeling on the Cloud Carpet
"Since you all hold such sincerity, does it mean you are willing to agree to any demand I make?"
The graceful Mu Yunye smiled slightly and said, "As long as it does not violate the Heavenly Dao, if the Third Miss has any need, I shall comply."
Fang Geyu downed the cup of wine in her hand in one go, looking at him with bright eyes and said with a smile, "So, does it mean you won’t mind even if I keep a male concubine?"
The words were shocking!
Such a straightforward and audacious request, not to mention the change in color among the suitors at the table.
Even Fang You began to twitch at the corners of his mouth, unable to resist the urge to flick her forehead.
"What nonsense are you spouting! It seems Father has spoiled you too much over the years!!"
Before Fang You could lose face, one must know that other than Ji Xinnian, all present were sons of Immortals from the Upper Pure Immortal Realm.
If they weren’t sincerely intending to marry into Shifang City, how could these proud individuals lower themselves to step into this mortal realm?
Now, before a husband is chosen, she demands to keep a male concubine.
Isn’t this like pressing the faces of these noble immortal offspring into the ground and trampling them hard?
How could there be such rudeness!
Sure enough, the previously calm atmosphere at the table began to stir unrestfully. Those noble suitors furrowed their brows, as if greatly humiliated, their expressions gradually darkening.
They came here to propose, and marrying into Shifang City was already a gracious gesture.
Who could have expected such a brazen demand?
This is not the Demon World, so does she fancy herself a lofty female lord of the Demon World, needing three thousand royal consorts and concubines to satisfy her?
Utterly presumptuous!
They, born of noble immortals, could not allow themselves to be humiliated like some mere concubines. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
Compared to those sons of Daoist Immortals, who were simmering with anger, Mu Yunye’s handsome face remained calm, his eyes as tranquil as a lake.
He smiled without a hint of emotion, bowed slightly, and said, "The Third Miss is the one I seek. If I am fortunate enough to gain the Third Miss’s favor to fulfill my heart’s desire. I am willing to offer my wholehearted devotion, whatever Third Miss desires in life, Yunye shall fulfill them for you one by one."
The table calmed instantly due to this statement.
Even the most unruly Situ Ye seemed as if a ghost strangled his throat, swallowing all words of resentment.
This genius of the Immortal World, the son of a Golden Immortal, Mu Yunye, showed such sincerity and tolerance.
Noble as he is, he showed not a trace of resentment or anger.
How could they continue to act out?
Situ Ye was full of repressed anger and frustration, thinking to himself that he had ultimately been too rash.
Perhaps just now, he became a springboard for Mu Yunye along with those fools.
Not to mention whether that Fang family’s Third Miss would truly keep male concubines after marrying a noble immortal’s offspring.
Just Mu Yunye’s heartfelt confession was enough to win Fang Geyu’s favor.
If this continues, if anyone were to stand out and take the lead, it would undoubtedly be Mu Yunye.
In response to Mu Yunye’s astonishingly indulgent speech, Fang Geyu’s face remained without any noticeable emotion.
She smiled calmly, her fingers lightly holding the empty wine cup, letting it slide silently from her delicate white fingertips, crashing silently onto the plush, expensive carpet.
"I’ve seen Immortal Lord Mu’s sincerity, but to marry me, sincerity alone is not enough."
Mu Yunye’s gaze was composed yet confident, "Willing to accept any test from the Third Miss."
Seeing this, Situ Ye, hidden in the shadows, could not help but clench his fist nervously.
Given the atmosphere between the two, it was apparent that this Fang Third Miss was gradually developing feelings for Mu Yunye.
During the whole day that the feast was open, Mu Yunye seemed silent and rarely spoke, yet when he did, it captivated the lady beyond measure.
And this Fang Third Miss too, during the feast, was whimsical in thought and spoke shockingly.
But Situ Ye saw clearly that this seemingly aloof Fang Third Miss genuinely never held anyone in her regard from beginning to end.
Even if she catered to a conversation, it was all according to her mood, and she certainly never exchanged more than three sentences with anyone in genuine dialogue.
Stingy yet fair to a tight extent.
But she had already exchanged far more than three sentences with Mu Yunye.
It seems, the status of the son of a Golden Immortal is incredibly alluring even for Shifang City.
The handsome-looking ’Rong Lijun’ had already moved to Baili An’s table not long after the feast had started, dropping the peeled walnut kernels into his palm and eating them one by one.
"I say, stupid cat, your beloved eldest young miss is about to be taken in and cooked in someone’s pot, yet here you are, leisurely peeling walnuts, not afraid she’ll put a big green hat on you?"
Baili An shot her a sideways glance, "Can’t even walnuts shut your mouth."
Ning Feiyan shook her head and said, "From my many years of experience conquering women, next, that eldest young miss will surely have Mu Yunye pick up the fallen wine cup for her.
Mu Yunye will comply to everything, thoughtfully picking it up, displaying a gentleman’s demeanor and poise.
The eldest young miss will smile faintly, push the wine cup forward, mirroring a token of goodwill.
With such a stage set, the relationship between the two will undoubtedly become subtle, and Mu Yunye will be the only one able to get close to the eldest young miss tonight.
