Xiao Ye's mouth twitched, *What the hell are you thanking me for?*
But from the things Jie Gangtai had just said, Xiao Ye had learned that this guy and Mu Qingxue were childhood friends, growing up learning and training together. But Jie Gangtai had never crossed the line with Mu Qingxue—not even holding hands.
He had always quietly protected Mu Qingxue, deeply devoted, hopelessly infatuated, and incredibly obedient.
Xiao Ye sighed, feeling sorry for him, saying, "Honestly, even if I hadn't shown up, you still wouldn't end up with Mu Qingxue."
Jie Gangtai's body jolted, "Why?"
Xiao Ye spoke bluntly, "She and the Young Master of the Ye Family in the Imperial Capital have been engaged since they were kids. Tomorrow, the Ye Family is coming to propose. The reason I came to the City Lord's Mansion today is to defeat the Ye Family's Young Master tomorrow so the proposal will fail and the engagement will be canceled!"
