North Garden Bows His Head

In the end, the North Garden Earl had dragged Tian Yang Ni along to speak with Feng Jun.

Before this, the Tian Family and the North Garden Earl had essentially broken ties, but one could not deny it: in-laws were still in-laws.

Fine, that sounded a little ridiculous. The truth was that the Tian Family was too weak and did not dare offend the North Garden Earl beyond repair.
