Ouyang Mingjing got out of the wagon and observed the board on Xinlin Mansion's gate, thinking and saying quietly, "This is her mansion?"
"…"
"She seems to have written the characters on the board."
Her calligraphy was wild and cold, attracting people to get close to her, but stopping them because of her cold personality.
"Go and knock on the door," Ouyang Mingjing said to his guard.
The guard did as told.
Qing opened the door, and was about to ask who it was, when she saw Ouyang Mingjing behind the guard.
The guard asked wildly, "Is the Phoenix Girl here?" Qing brought herself back, when asked.
"Who are you, what are you asking for Elder Miss for?" Qing asked.
"Tell your Elder Miss that it is the Head of the Snow Territory who wants to tell her something important." Ouyang Mingjing walked past the guard before answering.
He lost his patience when the door was opened. He wanted to put everything clearly in case the Phoenix Girl went out to do something stupid. How could the Phoenix Girl demean herself for the sake of a man?
Qing did as told.
Gu Chaoyan allowed them entrance without hesitation. She would very much like to see what he wanted.
Ouyang Mingjing walked into the mansion after the message was passed on.
He walked very slowly as he sized up the plants in Xinlin Mansion.
He had known that he would be the head of the Snow Territory when he started to understand the world, and that his wife would be the Phoenix Girl.
His marriage alliance with the Phoenix Girl was an old tale.
Every Phoenix Girl married the Head of the Snow Territory.
It meant that it did not matter who she was. It was all because of the marriage alliance. He happened to be the Head of the Snow Territory whilst she was the Phoenix Girl.
However, he still had one small hope. He wanted the whole Snow Territory to know that the Phoenix Girl was the best being in the world, just like the lotus flower growing in their place.
"What do you want?" Gu Chaoyan asked coldly, as she drank tea when she saw Ouyang Mingjing approaching her.
Ouyang Mingjing stiffened. He had not yet taken a seat, so… he sat down quietly in the face of Gu Chaoyan's inquiry. He arranged his clothes and picked up the teacup and sipped from it.
Then he said seriously, "I need to tell you one thing very clearly."
"…"
"I went to the King yesterday for this as well."
"…"
"I traveled all the way here for this thing as well."
ƥαṇdα-ηθνε|·ƈθm "…"
"Me and you have a marriage alliance," Ouyang Mingjing said seriously.
Haha.
Gu Chaoyan almost choked on the tea because of what he said.
Their marriage alliance? So he went to the King and asked about this after they ran into each other. So it was still related to her…?
She had no parents, no matchmaker who connected them and she did not like him, so why did they have a marriage alliance?
