How Could She Not Let Me In?

However, what the First Elder didn't expect was that when the guards at the door heard the name of the Dongfang family, they only casually sized him up and said coldly, "Alright, then you can wait here. After we go in and inform our Master that she has agreed to let you in, you can come in."

With these words, the guards left the bewildered First Elder and briskly went inside the residence to report.

The First Elder, having been snubbed in this indirect manner, took a moment to react, seemingly surprised that he would be treated this way. He dumbfoundedly returned to Dongfang Ruyan's side.

Dongfang Ruyan couldn't help but feel worried when she saw the First Elder's expression. She quickly asked, "First Elder, what's with your expression? Didn't they agree to let us in?"

Dongfang Ruyan asked, but she felt that Su Qian wouldn't be so bold as to reject her so openly.
