"You don't seriously believe he bought into that ridiculous rumor that you are Shangguan Qing, do you? Or do you honestly think he was in such a hurry to reach the battlefield that he couldn't spare the time to perform the three ritual bows? Hahaha!"
Yan Weichi didn't quite grasp what Murong Mian meant. Judging by the tone, could there have been another reason why Shangguan Xi left that day?
Seeing her bewildered expression, Murong Mian continued, "I won't beat around the bush. I’ll tell you the truth: Shangguan Xi isn't marrying you because of me. Because I found the Nine-Sun Golden Trout. Before you were supposed to get married, I made a deal with him. As long as he didn't marry you, I would personally deliver the Nine-Sun Golden Trout to him. Now that he has kept his end of the bargain, I will naturally fulfill my promise."
