Chapter Twenty Six : Blood for a New Beginning
After solving the Fang clan's relocation matter over a single meal, Fang Ting left the City Lord's Manor thoroughly satisfied.
But the moment he stepped outside—a mob rushed toward him.
"Brother Fang, got time to visit the Wang family? My sister has long admired you!"
"Brother Fang! Come to my house instead—it's closer!"
Fang Ting froze in place. A closer look revealed it was the same crowd from the birthday banquet. They hadn't left—they'd been waiting at the gate this entire time.
His head throbbed.
These people really were... persistent.
Just as things were getting awkward, Lü Zhen's son stepped outside.
"I'll escort Clan Leader Fang back personally. Please, everyone—disperse."
With that intervention, Fang Ting was spared a tedious round of social juggling and left Rain River City smoothly.
Inside the City Lord's Manor
Only Lü Zhen and Lü Chenlong remained.
