Farm Girl's Manor

Chang’an County Master was not afraid at all and provocatively said, "What do you think Hejia would do if he knew about those unspeakable thoughts of yours, would he cut off all ties with you? Ah, I’m rather eager to see that!"

"You dare!" Yan Junyu glared at Chang’an County Master, his tone brimming with chill, "You can act recklessly before me because I permit it, but if you are ungrateful and try to meddle in my affairs, even if you’re a princess, I have ways to deal with you."

The smile gradually faded from Chang’an County Master’s face as she looked at Yan Junyu expressionlessly, "Whether I dare or not, you know very well in your heart! You should be thankful that Hejia has caught my eye; otherwise, based on what you’ve just said, I would have good reason to put her to death!"

Yan Junyu’s heart chilled, and he scoffed, "She is a county lord personally granted by the Emperor, your Prince cousin’s lifesaver. Do you truly believe you can harm her?"

"Tsk, tsk!" Chang’an County Master looked at Yan Junyu pityingly and said, "Why don’t you mention that she is also Xiao Ruiyuan’s fiancée, and if I dared to harm her, Xiao Ruiyuan would seek revenge for her even at the risk of his entire clan’s destruction? Or is it that, in your heart, you don’t acknowledge her as your good brother’s fiancée and still harbor unspeakable thoughts towards her?"

Yan Junyu didn’t want to get entangled with Chang’an County Master any longer and said coldly, "Whether I harbor unspeakable thoughts or not is none of your business. And even if the Imperial Edict for an arranged marriage were to come one day, my affairs would require no meddling from you."

After saying that, Yan Junyu did not look at the ugly expression that quickly came over Chang’an County Master’s face and walked toward the door.
