“Murong Qingyan, do you know what you’re talking about?” Seeing Murong Qingyan refuse to repent, Murong Xiong wasn’t collected anymore, “Do you know that, it is what you did that deteriorates the relationship between Murong family and Nangong family.”
“Why are you so angry, master?” Murong Qingyan addressed him as master again, “Even if I have another chance, I’ll do that. I must retaliate because Nangong Ye insulted me, tit for tat.”
“You–” Murong Xiong didn’t pay attention to what she called him because he was so furious now after hearing what Murong Qingyan had said and nearly jumped out from his skin, “Murong Qingyan, I command you to apologize to Nangong family. And you must retrieve the engagement.”
What Murong Xiong meant was clear, the engagement he wanted to retrieve was between Murong family and Nangong family, not between Murong Qingxue and Nangong Ye. In other words, it didn’t matter whether it was Murong Qingxue from Murong family would marry Nangong Ye. What mattered was the two families needed an engagement.
“I won’t go.” Murong Qingyan refused without hesitation, “Master, if you call me just for the little thing, there is no need to continue.”
“Murong Qingyan, what do you mean?” Hearing what Murong Qingyan said and seeing her indifferent look, Murong Xiong banged the table heavily, pointed at her nose and swore, “Do you know who you are talking to?”
“Sure.” Murong Qingyan shrugged her shoulders and said, “I’m afraid master you’re confused and don’t know who you are talking to.”
“Murong Qingyan, you are such an evil creature.” Murong Xiong was so furious that his eyes turned red, “Now I’m not discussing with you. I’m just informing you. You must go and apologize, whether you agree or not.”
“Think again, master.” Seeing Murong Xiong went furious, Murong Qingyan wasn’t scared, “If you force me to make an apology, the relationships between the two families might get worse.”
“Murong Qingyan, are you threatening me?” Murong Xiong definitely had read between the lines!
If he forced Murong Qingyan to go, then their relationships would be worse if she did something more egregious instead of apologizing.
“I’m just telling you the truth.” Unlike Murong Xiong who was furious, Murong Qingyan was calm, “So master, please think carefully.”
“Murong Qingyan, you want to disobey me?” Murong Xiong squinted his sharp eyes and he stared at Murong Qingyan, “Do you know the punishment for disobeying my order?”
“Of course.” Murong Qingyan gave a wintry smile and said, “In Murong family, disobeying master’s orders is equal to disrespect master and the person will be driven out. So–”
Murong Qingyan looked up at Murong Xiong and continued, “So master, you’ll drive me out of Murong family?”
Confronted with the threat, she wasn’t afraid at all. She had just won the family competition and had even defeated Nangong Ye, which was known to everyone in the Kingdom of Jialuo. If Murong Xiong really drove her out of Murong family, Murong family would be a laughingstock for everyone.
In addition, they might lose the title of the first family secured by her.
Moreover, even if Murong Xiong drove her out, she wouldn’t fear that. Because she had planned to leave Murong family after the family competition. So after a certain period, she would leave even Murong Xiong didn’t drive her out. Never had she thought about leaving Murong family was a loss to her.
“You–” Murong Xiong pointed at Murong Qingyan and trembled with anger, especially when he saw Murong Qingyan feel so reassured and emboldened, he was so furious.
In fact, now he couldn’t drive Murong Qingyan out. It would be a considerable blow if Murong Qingyan left. Maybe because of this, Murong Qingyan felt reassured and emboldened, but he was too angry to just let her go like this.
Finally, Murong Xiong could only yell, “Murong Qingyan, get out!”
For he feared he would lose control and attack Murong Qingyan if she was still here.
