Chapter 655: The Return of the State Preceptor
"The events of the past, since they have already passed, I have no intention of dwelling on them further."
Seeing Nolan Deye’s eyes light up in an instant, Zhong Niangyao’s lips curved into a sarcastic smile as she continued to speak, "However, don’t assume that because I let go, it means that the matter is over. That’s impossible."
After hearing what Zhong Niangyao said, Nolan Deye, who had been harboring a glimmer of hope, saw the light in his eyes extinguish at once. His lips formed a bitter smile, and he said no more.
He had long been aware of the inevitable, realizing the moment he made his decision that the State Preceptor would never forgive him.
Without paying attention to Nolan Deye’s disappointment, Zhong Niangyao went straight to the point, "I want you to help me get someone from Princess Mingyue!"
Upon hearing Zhong Niangyao’s request, Nolan Deye nodded repeatedly, "Of course, State Preceptor, whatever person you need, I will surely help you."
Zhong Niangyao nodded, "In Princess Mingyue’s residence, there’s a man named Zhong Mingxin! He was saved by Princess Mingyue years ago. However, she took advantage of his gratitude to keep him detained for as long as ten years."
"What? Princess Mingyue actually did such a thing?" Nolan Deye frowned deeply. "A young girl like her to do such a thing. No wonder she has been unwilling to marry for so many years! So, there was such a reason."
"I don’t care to know why Princess Mingyue is unwilling to marry," said Zhong Niangyao. "However, my bond with Zhong Mingxin is significant, and I must take him away."
"I’ll issue an order right away to bring Zhong Mingxin to the palace," Nolan Deye spoke up immediately. "Then, State Preceptor, you can do as you please."
