Chapter 436, Landlord (3 updates)

Being a woman seated among a group of men was indeed not proper.

Moreover, her involvement with the King...

Liu, the county magistrate, felt that it was best for Xie Zhinuan to have left after she had eaten and offered a toast. The courtesy was fulfilled, and now was the perfect time for her to depart.

Thus, the dishes were cleared away, and the others continued their meal.

Xuan Mu glanced at the empty spot beside him, feeling a void in his heart.

He ate his meal distractedly.

"..." Xu Xuanjin looked at Xuan Mu and stood up to offer a toast, her voice a bit loud, reminding Xuan Mu that it was about time to control his emotions.

He should not let his reluctance compromise his own prospects or Xie Zhinuan's.

"Very well, very well, you are all fine young men, with boundless futures ahead!"

Xie Zhinuan bought some mountaintops, choosing several close to the county town and two deep in the mountains.
