Bab 103: Too Handsome for this Ger

Xu Feng let out a soft, almost wistful sigh, contemplating why he couldn't simply conjure gold out of thin air. If he had the magical skill of an alchemist, perhaps he'd relocate to a remote area and build a smaller, more modest home compared to Nanshan. 

Then he wouldn't need to worry about servants and their loyalties or to deal with in-laws or other random people. He would choose to live near nature, maybe deep within a forest or nestled among the mountains like he was not, and lead a calm and untroubled life, just like a salted fish.

In some ways, this life seemed to suit him though. The drama creators were out of the picture, and he was bound by this contract for a maximum of three years. 

Freedom was on the horizon, and the thought of being obligated to do something weighed heavily on his mind. He longed to free himself and release the heavy rock that seemed to rest on his chest.
