Kapitel 524: Chapter 525: Proposal of Marriage

Li Xiaobai looked indifferent, casting a lofty gaze upon Situ Renjie.

"Young Master Li might not be aware that the Zhang Family is a vassal of our Situ Household. For the young master to take over their property without so much as a word may be a bit improper, don't you think?"

Situ Renjie spoke with a light smile, though a hint of cold light flashed through his eyes.

"Young Master Situ might not know that the Zhang Family is a haven for filth and corruption, often killing cultivators and causing widespread resentment. I thought that, as a noble family of esteemed standing, the Situ Household would certainly not allow such vile rascals to tarnish its reputation. Hence, I took it upon myself to clean up on behalf of the Situ Household,"

"Having been preoccupied with Lady Zong's birthday celebrations recently, I overlooked the matter for a time. It's all for the bright future of Aolai Country, so I ask you not to take it to heart,"

Li Xiaobai also said with a smile.
