Five years ago, she left behind an egg and said, “This is the son I bore for you. When he comes of age, that will be the time of my return.” He thought she was joking, but months later, the son hatched out of the egg, looking like a normal baby but with two shiny, adorably cute little dragon horns on his head. However, she remained far away with no signs of returning.

Later, she disappeared for five years, and he went mad for five years, until Little Dragon brought home a woman, and he instantly came to his senses... But Little Dragon said, "Daddy, even though you don't have a wife, you're about to get a daughter-in-law soon. She saved me, and I want to dedicate myself to her in return!"

From then on, the father and son found themselves in an open and covert struggle for her affection.
"Your Excellency, Miss Si's medical skills have amazed the entire globe, and all the bigshots are busting their heads to court her. Your heroic rescuing act is of no use..."
Mo Yinhe suddenly collapsed to the ground, coughing violently, “Quick, go call her to save me!”
"Your Excellency, the seven arch-rivals whom you beat until their livers exploded are all Miss Si's biological brothers. They want to take Miss Si back to inherit the throne..."
Mo Yinhe immediately announced his abdication, pulling his son to roam the streets: “Sonny, from now on, Dad can only follow you to seek refuge with your wife-to-be.”
Little Dragon shook the shiny, adorably cute little dragon horns on his head, “Daddy, I've already arranged a retirement home for you, guaranteed to secure your peaceful old age~”

Si Mingjing, carrying a plastic bag and a glass bottle both filled with Dragon Algae, retraced her steps and walked out of the ancient tomb alone.


As soon as she emerged from the tomb, she saw a dense crowd on the plaza outside, looking as if they were excitedly waiting for something.


Upon seeing Si Mingjing exit the tomb, Lady Duanmu, accompanied by all the officials from Mengcheng, immediately approached to greet her grandly.


Lady Duanmu announced loudly and respectfully, "Everyone, this is our new City Lord, Si Mingjing! She is the only one who could enter the tomb, the most beloved woman of our great late City Lord. His Lordship decreed that whoever could enter the tomb would be the new City Lord. From this day forth, Si Mingjing is the new City Lord of Mengcheng."


All the officials of Mengcheng bowed and nodded to her.


Si Mingjing was awestruck by the scene.
