The City Lord must have been an absolute construction enthusiast!
On the way to the undersea mausoleum, Lady Duanmu introduced Mengcheng to her, saying that all the city's architecture was personally designed by the City Lord during his lifetime!
They rode a submarine, cruising above the city, looking down on the entire metropolis, which resembled a gigantic, fervent heart.
Lady Duanmu said, "The City Lord once determined the entire city's layout. Now, when building houses, no one can deviate from this plan. It was a rule he set on his deathbed, one that all citizens who adored him willingly follow. He hoped that one day, when the woman he loved appeared, she would see his unwavering devotion—a lifetime spent loving only her."
Si Mingjing felt a pang of envy.
"The City Lord was a deeply passionate man."
"He was, even more so, a heartless man. For any woman to fall in love with him was to court tragedy."
These were Lady Duanmu's heartfelt words.
