So what if I'm useless? I'll become a saint!

After the chief steward left, Chen Yan's face was still ugly.

He snorted coldly.

"This Sikong family is really interesting. One plays the good cop and the other plays the bad cop. Do they really think we are easy to bully?"

Ling Jiuan smiled softly when he heard this.

There was a hint of cunning and intelligence in her smile; she had seen through the Sikong family's tricks.

"It's not that the Sikong family is interesting, but in the entire City Lord's Mansion, only this chief steward is a smart person."

She said slowly.

"He knew he couldn't offend us because our backgrounds were not simple. Others, like Sikong Yun, were simply blinded by power and could not see the situation clearly."

Lei Tingyi also nodded.

He knew very well that in this world, strength was the most important thing.

The three of Ling Jiuan all have impressive strength and background, which is why the City Lord's Mansion does not dare to offend them easily.

"However, this incident can be regarded as a lesson."

Ling Jiuan continued.

"We must be more careful and cautious in our future actions to avoid falling into such a predicament again."

Chen Yan and Lei Tingyi both nodded, indicating that they would remember this lesson.

On the second day, Chen Yan, Lei Tingyi, Ling Jiuan and their group went to Sikong Wen's study to prepare to say goodbye.

They knew that after what happened yesterday, there was not much point in staying in the City Lord's Mansion any longer.

"Lord Sikong, we are sorry to bother you for so many days. We are leaving now."

Chen Yan said politely, with a barely perceptible hint of coldness in his tone.

Si Kong Wen looked at the people in front of him and frowned subconsciously. He originally thought that after yesterday's conflict, these people would at least stay for a few more days so that he would have a chance to explain and make amends.

However, it now seems that they do not want to stay here any longer.

"Won't you stay a few days longer?"

Sikong Wen asked tentatively, trying to keep them.

Ling Jiuan smiled slightly, his tone calm but with unquestionable firmness.

"Lord Sikong, we came here originally to handle some personal matters. Now that the matter has been resolved, it is time for us to leave. Thank you for your hospitality, and I hope we will have the opportunity to meet again in the future."

Lei Tingyi also nodded, indicating his agreement with Ling Jiuan's statement.

He didn't want to continue to argue here, after all, they had more important things to do.

Seeing this, Sikong Wen knew that there was no hope of retaining him and could only sigh helplessly.

"Since you have made your decision, I will not stay any longer. I just hope that you can come to the City Lord's Mansion more often in the future, so that I can have the opportunity to show my hospitality."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yan and the others politely agreed and then turned and left the study.

They knew that after leaving this time, they might not return to this place full of power and struggle for a long time.

Only after exiting the City Lord's Mansion did Chen Yan heave a sigh of relief, finally escaping from a depressing environment.

He put his hand on Ling Jiuan's shoulder and said with emotion.

"Ling Jiuan, why don't we have these messy things in Xinghuo City?"

However, his actions caused Lei Tingyi's dissatisfaction.

Lei Tingyi directly pushed his hand away and said rudely, "Don't touch me!"

Chen Yan withdrew his hand somewhat awkwardly. He knew that this habit of his was not a good one, especially in this kind of situation.

He laughed dryly a few times, trying to ease the awkward atmosphere.

"Haha, I'm used to it. In Spark City, we are all so close."

Ling Jiuan also laughed. She understood what Chen Yan meant and knew that he was indeed a casual person in Xinghuo City.

She patted Chen Yan's shoulder.

"Chen Yan, I know what you mean. But we still have to pay attention to our image outside. After all, we are now representing Spark City."

Chen Yan nodded to show that he understood.

He knew that Ling Jiuan was right and they really needed to be more careful about their words and actions now.

After all, their every word and action could affect the reputation of Spark City.

Lei Tingyi's ears were ringing with Chen Yan's words "We were like this in Xinghuo City as well", and he couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable.

He watched the easy interaction between the two of them, silently wondering.

How come their relationship is so good?

Ling Jiuan noticed that Lei Tingyi's expression was a little strange, and couldn't help but ask with concern.

"What's wrong with you? Are you worried about something?"

Lei Tingyi hesitated for a moment, but decided to express his feelings.

"I just feel that there seems to be some subtle changes in our relationship. You and Chen Yan seem to have become closer."

When Ling Jiuan heard this, he suddenly realized.

She understood Lei Tingyi's feelings, and knew that she and Chen Yan did have a good friendship.

She patted Lei Tingyi's shoulder gently.

"Don't think too much. Chen Yan and I are just friends. The relationship between us has not changed. We are still partners of Spark City."

Lei Tingyi is very important, he is her first friend in this world.

But the same goes for Chen Yan, he is also her friend?

Lei Tingyi nodded, but the doubts in his heart did not completely dissipate.

He knew that his feelings might be a little sensitive, but he couldn't ignore this subtle change.

Just as the few of them arrived at the city gate and were about to leave Juling City, they were suddenly surrounded by a group of people wearing the uniforms of the City Lord's Mansion.

They looked serious and seemed to be up to no good.

The next moment, Sikong Yun appeared with an arrogant look on his face.

With a somewhat smug and provocative smile, he slowly walked up to Chen Yan, Lei Tingyi and Ling Jiuan.

"Huh, want to leave? It's not that easy!"

Sikong Yun said coldly, his eyes flashing with cruelty and determination.

"You ruined my good deeds, and you want to just walk away like this? How ridiculous!"

Chen Yan and Lei Tingyi's faces darkened when they heard this.

They knew that Sikong Yun came with bad intentions, and good people would not come.

It seems that this conflict is inevitable.

Ling Jiuan remained calm. She looked directly into Sikong Yun's eyes, her tone calm but with unquestionable majesty.

"Sikong Yun, what do you want? We have already decided to leave. Do you still want to force us to stay?"

Sikong Yun sneered, his eyes revealing arrogance and conceit.

"Force you to stay? So what? In Juling City, there is nothing I, Sikong Yun, can't do!"

As he spoke, he waved his hand, signaling his men to come forward.

Seeing this, the people from the City Lord's Mansion approached Chen Yan, Lei Tingyi and Ling Jiuan, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

A fierce battle is inevitable.

Sikong Yun sneered, his eyes revealing arrogance and conceit, he had already regarded Chen Yan, Lei Tingyi, Ling Jiuan and others as his pawns.

He spoke contemptuously.

"If you don't want to die, that's fine. Offer Ling Jiuan and her two maids to be my favorites, and everything will be fine!"
