Chapter 2581: Guest
She was silent for a while and sat still frowning.
“Young Master Feng? Young Master Feng?”
Upon seeing Feng Jiu sitting quietly, the City Lord called out twice. When he saw that Feng Jiu had returned to her senses, he said: “I wonder if there is anything else Young Master Feng would like to ask me? If I know the answer, I will definitely tell you.”
Feng Jiu glanced at him when she heard this and said: “In that case, I would like to ask the City Lord if I may check the information at the library at the City Lord Manor.”
Upon hearing this, City Lord Ling paused: “Well…”
He looked at Feng Jiu with some hesitation, then he looked at his son, and finally he said: “As long as Young Master Feng agrees to release my son from the contract, then I will let Young Master Feng stay in the library or our manor for three days. But after three days, whether or not Young Master Feng has found the information you want, you must leave.”
Ling Tianyu who was beside him saw that his father had agreed to this condition for him, so he couldn’t help but move his mouth involuntarily, wanting to speak but unsure of what to say. Was he going to refuse his request? Then he would be slave to Feng Jiu?
When he thought about this, he gritted his teeth and stared at Feng Jiu with an unkind look. He snorted coldly and turned his head away.
Feng Jiu didn’t pay any attention to Ling Tianyu, but after she heard the City Lord’s words, her lips curled into a smile: “Alright, I agree.”
So, the City Lord and Ling Tianyu made an oath in front of Feng Jiu and promised that as long as Feng Jiu released him from the slavery contract, they would not pursue it and would not send someone to assassinate him or cause trouble for him.

In the end, Feng Jiu erased the salve mark between Ling Tianyu’s eyebrows and released the contract between the two of them.
Upon seeing this, the City Lord breathed a sigh of relief and smiled: “Young Master Feng, rest here tonight! Tomorrow morning, I will send someone to take you to the library.”
“In that case, thank you for your troubles.” Feng Jiu bowed to the City Lord.
“It’s not trouble.” The City Lord smiled and called the steward to take Feng Jiu to rest.
After Feng Jiu left, Ling Tianyu came to his father’s side and asked in a muffled voice: “Father, are we just letting this matter go?”
The City Lord glanced at him, his face dark and sullen with anger: “If you didn’t cause trouble all the time, why would I, a dignified City Lord, have to speak so politely and request a favour from others? And even allow him to read books in the library for three days? This is all because of the trouble you have caused. Now that we have even agreed that we won’t cause any more trouble for him, are you regretting it?”
He stared at him with a sullen face and said in a deep voice: “I warn you, use this period of time to cultivate at home. If I find out that you have gone out and caused trouble again, I will break your legs!” After he had warned him, the City Lord flung his sleeves and walked out, leaving Ling Tianyu standing alone in the main hall.
After Feng Jiu had settled in a courtyard in the City Lord Manor, she lived like a regular guest would. However, everyone in the City Lord Manor knew that their Young City Lord had lost to him, that’s why the City Lord had invited him to his home.
If it hadn’t been for the City Lord, the Young City Lord would no doubt become his slave. When they thought about the young man in red clothes who was so strong at such a young age, everyone in the City Lord Manor, whether in the open or hidden, looked at him secretly.
Especially the young maids in the City Lord Manor, when they saw his handsome faze and outstanding temperament, they couldn’t help but wonder what the origin of this red-clothed young man was. To make their Young City Lord get into deep trouble, and yet be treated like a guest by their City Lord, his approach was really incredible.
