The City Lord looked at Jiang Wei, a face that was young yet weathered.
At this moment, his eyes unusually lacked the indifference of overlooking all beings.
Instead, there was a trace of... respect?
He slightly bowed, the movement natural and smooth, carrying a flavor of ancient ritual, his voice calm and clear as he said, "I am Da Lei, a descendant of the Gui Lu District. Greetings to you, Lady Nvba!"
"The Gui Lu District... descendant?"
The vigilance in Jiang Wei's eyes was instantly replaced by a fleeting confusion and memory.
This name seemed to trigger long-sealed memory fragments within her.
Soon after, a hint of joy appeared on her face, as if meeting a long-lost friend, "You are the descendant of Uncle Da Hong!?"
City Lord Da Lei straightened up, and a rare gentle smile appeared on his lips as he nodded, "Indeed. My ancestor was Da Hong. Honored that you still remember, my Lady."
"That's wonderful!"
