"Heh!"
Mo Wentian suddenly let out a cold laugh.
He stared intently into Mo Rou's eyes, a cold glint flashing within them. "Since the Family Head has spoken, then so be it!"
"Allow me to wish the Family Head a speedy recovery from your old injury!"
With that, he flicked his sleeves and stormed off, his furious back quickly disappearing through the doorway.
The great doors shut once more. Mo Rou closed her eyes, quelling the rage and killing intent in her heart. When she opened them again, they were filled with nothing but ice.
"Mo Wentian... What a deep and cunning mind."
"He didn't make this trip just to ask for the Merfolk. I suspect he saw that I hadn't used the Merfolk yet and was worried I'd grown suspicious!"
He deliberately came to demand the Merfolk only to dispel her suspicions and observe the situation.
Mo Rou clenched her fists tightly. Her patience with him had reached its limit.
