Chapter 16: Mother
Since his good brother had brought the conversation to this point, and they were leaving anyway, the leader revealed the truth.
“…” Wu Jinliang was stunned on the spot.
After finally recovering, he realized it made sense. There were many people who wanted to leave the Land of Exile.
If some bumpkin randomly found Far-Gazing Tower and asked for a ride, it would be strange if Far-Gazing Tower agreed. Not only would they not agree, they probably wouldn't even bother to acknowledge you.
Understanding this, he couldn't help but laugh. He originally had the same concerns about Shen Youkun's background, but he hadn't expected that fellow Chuntian to have already prepared a countermeasure.
However, this countermeasure was indeed a bit amusing.
Remembering Chuntian’s past pursuit of Miss Miao, he found it even funnier and said, overjoyed, “Why didn't you say so earlier? I really thought you were smitten with Miss Miao.”
“I really was smitten. Miss Miao is beautiful and kind, isn't it normal to be smitten with her? The crucial thing is that my infatuation is useless.
No matter how good she is, as you said, she has breeding. She wouldn't look kindly upon bumpkins like us, and we wouldn't get used to being together.
