"Brother Situ, this woman actually dares to talk back to you!"
"Indeed, Brother Situ is just being too nice to her. If you ask me, just snatch the woman you like away. The Zong Family has long declined and can no longer hold its ground."
"Exactly, we cultivators live our lives—why should we have to watch how a woman reacts?"
The young men around them looked at the departing figure of Zong Yao, all revealing cold expressions. This woman had publically slapped their faces not just once, but twice already.
"Heh, you lot don't understand. Sometimes forcefully plucked melons are not necessarily sweet. Let her jump around for a few more days. On the day of the Zong matriarch's longevity celebration, the Situ Household will come to propose marriage. When that time comes and double happiness arrives, she won't be able to refuse."
Situ Renjie said with a cold smile.
