"I—"
Sixth Elder opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
Isn't this forcing them to resign? How can they do this, treating them like pawns to be summoned and dismissed at will?
"Master, does it have to be like this?"
He asked, truly unwilling to accept it. He had worked in Sky City for so many years, not only failing to put his daughter in the Junior City Lord's wife's position, but even losing his elder's position?
If Shen Yuan hadn't wanted to deal with the Junior City Lord's wife, wouldn't none of this have happened?
Thinking about this possibility, he turned his head and glared angrily at his daughter, really more trouble than she's worth.
...
In the end, Elder Zhu did not answer his question and asked him to leave.
Shen Yuan naturally wasn't punished either. She followed Sixth Elder out, seeing her father walking ahead, and she jogged to catch up.
"Dad..."
Before she could speak, there was a loud 'smack.'
