Gong Yue raised the wine cup in front of him and said to Feng Yi: ”From Xue Yan, the two of you have saved the lives of the mother and son before. This palace has no way to repay you.
As he spoke, he drained the cup of wine in one gulp.
Feng Yi immediately stood up with his wine cup: ”City Lord's words made us ashamed, it's just that we didn't know your true identity at that time, even if we didn't personally help, you would definitely be safe and sound.”
Chu Yunge also agreed: ”That's right, the name 'Asura's Dual Blades' is not randomly called out, big sister's martial arts is so much higher than mine!”
Nangong Xueyan smiled and said, ”Yunge and I are very close. How about we become sisters of the opposite sex?”
Chu Yunge immediately slammed the table, ”Alright, Feng Yi is Shaoshang's master. If we were to become sisters, wouldn't that mean we would be kissing? ”Furthermore, it did not mess up the seniority, but …”
Nangong Xueyan saw that she wanted to say something but hesitated. She thought that she had some misgivings, so she casually asked, ”Does Yun Ge have any misgivings?”
Chu Yunge glanced at Gong Shaoyang, and said: ”If we were to become sisters, wouldn't Young City Lord have to call me Aunt? I'm afraid he won't! ”
”He dares! The two of you have saved Xue Yan and taught Shaoshang. Why shouldn't I call you Aunt? ” Gong Yue's face became serious, and he threw a glance at Gong Shaoyang.
When Gong Shaoyang saw the dignified gaze his father shot at him, he felt such hatred in his heart.
He had originally wanted to return to Kang City and take this opportunity to teach Chu Yunge a lesson. Coincidentally, Chu Yunge was also one of the candidates for the competition, so he could help her wear small shoes behind her back.
However, he didn't expect that before he could make a move to punish Chu Yunge, not only did he not take revenge, his position had even dropped a level.
What kind of logic was this?
Why did everyone in the world like Chu Yunge so much?
Was Chu Yunge really that likeable?
Gong Shaoyang thought indignantly, but because his father was present, he did not dare to reveal his emotions on his face, so he could only clench his teeth and sit on the chair expressionlessly.
Chu Yunge was overjoyed in her heart, but on the surface, she pretended as if nothing had happened and said, ”If Young City Lord doesn't object, then I'll respectfully obey. It just so happens that I also have thoughts of becoming sworn brothers with my elder sister!”
”Really? ”Then that's great, it's better to choose than to strike. How about today?”
It seemed like Nangong Xueyan was also an impatient person who did as she was told.
”Just what I want!” Oh, and that's right, and also the prince of Feng Lai. I think that our sisters' sworn brothers should actually have two overlords to testify! ”
The more Chu Yunge spoke, the more excited she became. She grabbed onto Nangong Xueyan's hand and stopped talking.
Gong Yue quickly ordered the servants to prepare incense and other heaven worshipping items for the two to use as sworn brothers.
Very soon, the servants had prepared these useful items, setting up a sacrificial altar in the middle of the courtyard, and lighting incense candles.
Nangong Xueyan pulled Chu Yunge's hand and knelt down beside him, swearing an oath and kowtowing.
After kowtowing nine times, Chu Yunge grabbed Nangong Xueyan's hand and affectionately called her elder sister.
Nangong Xueyan replied with a smile and affectionately called out to her younger sister.
Gong Yue smiled and nodded at the side. Someone had said that the happiest thing in the world was to regain what he had lost, and that was probably what Gong Yue was feeling right now!
Back then, he had thought that he would never be able to see Nangong Xueyan again in his lifetime. However, he had never expected to see her again after the New Year with his own child.
Chu Yunge walked to Gong Yue's side and sweetly called out: ”Brother-in-law —” Then she extended her small hand, ”Brother-in-law, give me a red packet, right?”
Gong Yue quickly took out a jade pendant from his bosom. This jade pendant was entirely green, the rare emerald color of an Ancestral Mother.
”I was in a hurry and didn't have the time to prepare a gift. This jade pendant that I have worn for many years has the effect of repelling evil spirits. I hope I don't mind!”
Chu Yunge played with the jade pendant for a few times before stuffing it into her pocket. She knew what it meant, it was such a large piece of emerald, other than the three imperial families, only the owner of the Kang City could take it out.
”Shouldn't you change your mind?” Chu Yunge walked in front of Gong Shaoyang and said with a mischievous smile.
”You — —” Gong Shaoyang wanted to say a few more words of encouragement, but then he saw his father look at her with a look of warning.
”Greetings, aunt …” Gong Shaoyang could only cry out softly.
