Chapter 212: The Despicable One

"Where are the academy head and his wife?" Zhu Yin asked, barely suppressing his anger, as he inquired the steward of Qilin Academy.

The situation was so sudden that everyone was bewildered, not sure what to do, and with the presence of this old ancestor, no one dared to breathe too loudly.

Zhu Ziyue was the external affairs steward of Qilin Academy, responsible for all the affairs of the academy.

He immediately stepped forward and said, "Reporting to the great uncle, the academy head is in seclusion, and his wife has gone to fetch him. They will arrive before the auspicious time for the ceremony."

As he spoke, the tardy academy head Zhu Min, and the head's wife from the Ji Family arrived.

Zhu Min was still unaware of what had happened, knowing only that there had been a disturbance that had caused the old ancestor to leave his retreat and that it was happening at the engagement feast.
