The guard whispered with a conflicted expression, "My lord, I was just about to report to you, but I haven't had the chance to speak!"
Ouyang Zhentian, feeling the pressure of appearances, quickly stood up and put on a smile. "Ah, so it's Qingtian who has come! What a rare guest! Quickly, bring some tea!"
The Blue Dye Clan and the Ouyang Family have been family friends for generations, and there has been some interaction between them. When Qingtian saw Ouyang Zhentian, he naturally regarded him as an elder and respectfully greeted him, saying, "Uncle, I encountered this young lady while exorcising demons. I thought she might be from your Ouyang Family, so I brought her back. It turns out she is your third daughter!"
Several maids hurriedly brought over tea, while Xiang Xueer stood in the center of the hall, staring at the unfamiliar man in front of her and asked, "Who are you?"
"Ah?" Ouyang Zhentian was momentarily stunned. He turned his head in shock to look at Xiang Xueer, glaring at her with disdain. "You dead girl! You come back and don't even call me father? You dare to ask who I am?"
"Father?" Xiang Xueer squinted at this so-called father. This family was already strange enough; the servants called her an idiot, her child had been taken by a demon, and this father showed no concern at all. Instead, he immediately started berating her. Hmph! It seems that the original owner of this body was truly not well-liked.
Xiang Xueer fixed her cold gaze on Ouyang Zhentian and then fell silent. She turned and sat next to Qingtian, handing him the tea. "Thank you for saving me. If it weren't for you, I might have died. This cup of tea is for you!"
Upon hearing this, Qingtian quickly stood up and respectfully accepted the tea, smiling as he said, "I didn't expect you to be the third miss of the Ouyang Family. I remember your name is Jiaorong, right? When I came three years ago, I saw you then; you were just a little girl back then. I didn't expect that after such a long time, you've grown up so much!"
Xiang Xueer looked Qingtian up and down. Yes, indeed, he was a remarkable man. Just as she was about to say something, Ouyang Zhentian's eyes widened in shock as he stared at Xiang Xueer in disbelief and stammered, "You... what happened to you? You... weren't you mentally challenged before? How come suddenly..."
Mentally challenged and unable to speak clearly—so that's how it is! No wonder even the servants dared to insult me; this father of mine from such a prominent family must not think highly of his foolish daughter.
Xiang Xueer frowned tightly and shot a disdainful glare at Ouyang Zhentian. "Father, you're joking! Look at me; I'm perfectly fine! Don't you want me to come back alive?"
Her words struck home instantly, leaving Ouyang Zhentian speechless. Qingtian sensed that the atmosphere was becoming tense and put down his teacup. "Since Miss Jiaorong is fine now, I'll take my leave and not disturb your father-daughter reunion!"
"You're leaving? That won't do!" Xiang Xueer grabbed Qingtian's arm, revealing a charming smile. "Qingtian, wait for me a moment. I'll tidy up and come find you. I still have things to say!"
No way, my crush is leaving! Xiang Xueer glanced sideways at Ouyang Zhentian, a wave of Killing Intent surging forth. "Dad, I'm going to tidy up first. We'll catch up properly later!"
Ouyang Zhentian stood frozen in place. The third miss of the Ouyang Family, Ouyang Jiaorong, was born with a mental deficiency; in modern terms, she was somewhat brain-dead. Not only was she often confused, but she could barely complete a sentence. He often felt ashamed to have such a daughter. Now that she had been captured by the Headless Demon, he felt a sense of relief. At least if she died, no one would dare to mock him behind his back for having a foolish daughter in the prestigious exorcist clan, the Ouyang Family.
But what was happening now? Had she been possessed by a demon? Ouyang Zhentian's brows twitched several times as he stared at Ouyang Jiaorong, who was slowly walking out of the hall. Once the truth was uncovered, he would end her immediately.
