Ying Hongzeng Tian, gazing at his granddaughter's determined look, felt quite happy in his heart. If she could truly successfully take down Mo Wenjie, would I still need to worry? Of course not. Mo Wenjie was at the post station; you can find him if you want to. I will have someone notify the post station manager to help you complete the task and arrange a separate room for you. As for others in Yundu City, let them go out and play. Whoever dares not follow orders will be dealt with severely!
Huang Ling'er listened to her grandfather's words and still felt uncertain in her heart. Mo Wenjie had comparable strength upon his ascension, and such a man was worthy of me. I don't care how many consorts you have; I must seize this opportunity. Otherwise, if he leaves Feihuang City, it won't be easy to find him again! Thinking of this, she ordered Emperor Huang Zengtian, "You must make sure the officials at the posthouse understand the situation clearly; don't let him do something foolish by mistake! Otherwise, don't expect me to be polite to you!"
Emperor Huang Zengtian listened to his granddaughter's words and felt that something was off. "Ling'er, the officials at the posthouse are incompetent; how does it concern me? Do you want to cause a rift between us for fun?"
Huang Ling'er made a grimace at him, giggling, "He is your subordinate. If he doesn't do a good job, it's definitely because you haven't educated him well enough. It's your responsibility! Do you want to shirk the blame? I'll tell you that if you let your grandson-in-law get away, I'll never let it go!"
Emperor Huang Zengtian heard his granddaughter say this and he wasn't sure whether he should continue helping her. Now, he even wants to take care of himself. If she gets her power boosted by Mo Wenjie, she will definitely not give you any face. No matter who it is, she dares to confront them. So, she won't be afraid of anyone. Anyone who dares to be against her will probably have to do some serious praying just to survive! Ling'er, I think that although Mo Wenjie is not bad-looking and has decent strength, I still feel there's a big gap between him and you. No matter how you look at it, your future is as the ruler of the bottom city, but he will always be an ordinary citizen, with an identity that differs as much as heaven and earth. He won't be able to help at all with your career development. Therefore, I think the two of you are not a good match. You should really think it over and choose a better groom!
Huang Ling'er giggled and said, "Old man, you're quite cunning. What do you mean by 'nothing to help your future'? Are you trying to be manipulative? I haven't taken your position into account at all. My ideal is beyond the 36th heaven, and my hero is Nuwa Niangniang! You are just a ruler of the first heaven, which I don't even take notice of. Stop pretending here!"
Emperor Huang Zengtian heard his granddaughter say this and almost jumped up, this is preparing to cause trouble! Ling'er, whatever you do, you must measure your strength. Don't aim too high or be too ambitious. Isn't it better to be solid and realistic?
Huang Ling'er impatiently shook her head. "I've been told by you since I was a child to be down-to-earth, but no matter what I do, you always find fault with me. I don't understand why no matter how I act, you can never be satisfied. What is it? Shouldn't I do things according to your will, follow the path you have planned for me? But have you ever thought whether the path you plan for me is suitable for me? You want me to be a city lord, but have you ever considered my feelings? A city lord is nothing to me. I want to do what I want to do. Whether Mo Wenjie is suitable for me or not, that's up to me alone. Are you really trying to stop me on purpose? I hope not. I'm going to look for Mo Wenjie now. As for whether he's suitable to be your son-in-law, you'll know when I come back." Huang Ling'er said all this without looking back and left Emperor Huang Zengtian's palace!
Emperor Huang Zengtian watched as Huang Ling'er's back disappeared, filled with a mixture of emotions. His granddaughter had always been competitive and unwilling to be second to anyone. It was difficult to change her nature in this lifetime. I really have no idea how to deal with her. Although I also hope she can become a consort of Mo Wenjie, once she gains strength, she will fear nobody. I'm genuinely afraid that she may cause trouble for our Huang family in the future, but she does want to achieve something great, which is not entirely wrong. I honestly don't know whether or not to help her.
Huang Ling'er left the palace of Emperor Huang Zengtian and walked continuously towards the posthouse. Soon, she arrived at the posthouse!
Peng Weihao greeted the young miss, "Miss, you're looking for Mo Wenjie in room six of the Tianzhi six. I have followed your orders and prepared everything here. Please go to room six of Tianzhi six, miss!"
Huang Ling'er giggled, "You are quite the opportunist. Once I successfully find my husband-in-law, I won't forget to reward you!"
Peng Weihao hurriedly bowed, "Miss, you have my gratitude. As long as you are content, I am overjoyed. How could I ever dare to let you worry about me!"
Huang Ling'er looked at Peng Weihao and smiled faintly, "Don't say it like that. As long as you have made efforts, you should receive rewards. It's quite normal and there is nothing wrong with it. All rewards after the event will be yours! I will go to room six of Tianzhi six to find him!"
Peng Weihao hurriedly bowed and said, "Miss, please take your time!"
Huang Ling'er directly went to the posthouse, room Tianzi six, and knocked on the door!
Mo Wenjie did not expect anyone to come looking for him. Who could it be? The door was unlocked, so they just walked in!
Huang Ling'er pushed open the door and walked in!
Mo Wenjie saw an exceptionally beautiful young woman in her early twenties, and he was at a loss for words. After a moment of awkward silence, he realized that this was his room, not that he had gone to the wrong one. "Beautiful lady, hello. Who are you? Are you lost? Did you come to the wrong room?"
Huang Ling'er listened to Mo Wenjie's question and giggled, "You don't need to worry about who I am. As long as you are Mo Wenjie, that's all that matters!"
Mo Wenjie looked at the beautiful woman in front of him and pondered, "I haven't seen this beauty before, and it's my first time coming to Feihuang City. I don't know anyone here, so how could a girl come to find me? It's definitely not me. I am Mo Wenjie, but I don't know you at all. Maybe you're looking for someone with the same name as me. Please go and look in other rooms!"
Huang Ling'er paid no attention to his explanation. As long as you are Mo Wenjie, that's correct. I'm here to find you!
Mo Wenjie was really confused this time, like a towering monk without a clue. He genuinely did not recognize her and had no recollection of her whatsoever. How could she suddenly find him? He hasn't been wandering around Feihuang City, so how could anyone know him? Is it possible that it happened at the city gate? But that doesn't seem right either, as he didn't say anything, and others wouldn't know he was Mo Wenjie. He really couldn't understand what was going on. "Miss, I've thought for quite some time and still can't remember where we've met. You've truly found the wrong person; I'm not who you're looking for!"
Huang Ling'er laughed and laughed, "Are you a man or what? If you don't recognize me, then that's it. What can I do to you? Even if something happened between us, I should be the one who suffered. Look how scared you are. I really don't know about your courage. How could someone with such cultivation have such little bravery? Maybe someone is just exaggerating? But I haven't just heard it from one person; I've sent people to inquire as well. Could there really have been an accident, and there's another Mo Wenjie out there?"
Mo Wenjie saw that Huang Ling'er was lost in thought, and he realized that his guess was correct. The girl was indeed mistaken about him. Maybe there were other people named Mo Wenjie in other cities, but she had wronged someone by coming to his room. He couldn't just leave her and make her bear the consequences. "Miss, you have truly mistaken someone. I can assure you with my life that I am not the person you are looking for!"
Huang Ling'er looked at Mo Wenjie's anxious expression and found it amusing. Such a man should be confident, yet he seems afraid of a girl. It would surely be embarrassing if this were to get out! The more she teased him, the more she enjoyed it. "You've forgotten about me, haven't you? We had a promise for three lifetimes. I never thought you would forget me so quickly after just one life together. It's truly disheartening to know that all men are just fickle bachelors who forget their promises as soon as they are made. Is it true that you have forgotten the promise we made? You promised to never drink the soul-erasing elixir of Mengpo together. How could you betray your promise so easily? Did you really drink from Mengpo's elixir? I endured countless grievances and sacrificed for you so that we wouldn't drink from Mengpo's elixir, but why did you have to break your word and drink from it? Are our vows worthless to you? Is there no shame in deceiving even the woman who loves you most?
Mo Wenjie watched Huang Ling'er cry with a look of compassion, and he couldn't bear to see it anymore. "Could it be true that we have a promise for three lifetimes?" he thought. "How is it that I remember nothing at all? Could it be true that I drank the forgetfulness potion of Mengpo and lost all memories, as she said? But if we really had an agreement, how could I have no memory of it at all! Maybe she's mistaken? I can't admit this; otherwise, I don't know what to do. She won't let this go easily if she comes looking for me like this. Beautiful lady, you might really be mistaken. We have never met before, and there's no agreement between us for three lifetimes. You might really be looking for the wrong person. Please forgive me, I beg you! Even if we truly had an agreement for three lifetimes and I drank the forgetfulness potion, everything is back to zero; we're completely separated now, and I remember nothing at all. Find someone else; please leave me alone!"
Huang Ling'er covered her face and sobbed uncontrollably. "If you truly don't want to admit it, that we had a promise for three lifetimes, then I can't help it. I will spend my life alone. By the third life, you may remember me, the lady in your heart who you can't bear to part with. You may not remember me in this life, but that's fine. I'll wait for you in the next life until we are reunited!"
