Cheng Guang looked at Qin Gaozhi as the two of them stood at opposite ends of the street, looking at each other.

Qin Gaozhi stood tall with his hands clasped behind his back.

Even though he started off somewhat respectful, once he had finished his salutations, his demeanor no longer held any hint of respect.

Cheng Guang watched him, his eyes calm and unruffled.

"Qin Gaozhi? You\'ve come all the way to the Capital city to talk to me about what?"

Qin Gaozhi smiled slightly, "Naturally, it\'s about my sister\'s matter. Princely Heir, do you wish to listen?"

Cheng Guang frowned slightly and gave Qin Gaozhi another look, as if he couldn\'t quite understand what the latter was thinking.

After mere seconds of observation, Cheng Guang nodded slightly. He didn\'t turn to walk towards Qin Gaozhi; he simply stood his ground, waiting.

Qin Gaozhi, seeing Cheng Guang\'s reaction, smiled gently and walked over to Cheng Guang\'s side.

In dealing with Cheng Guang, Qin Gaozhi had to admit that the Heir of Duke of the State was undoubtedly among the pinnacle of Great Zhou\'s nobility, lacking the impatience of lesser nobles.

Every move he made did not resemble that of the nobility, but rather that of a graceful and easygoing gentleman.

Handsome in appearance, with black hair tied casually behind his head, shining with a faint lustre, complemented by a physique as white as jade, his features were extraordinary.

Qin Gaozhi stood before Cheng Guang. While his own appearance was decent, it paled in comparison to Cheng Guang\'s.

Qin Gaozhi\'s expression slightly faltered, but he refrained from saying anything more. After standing still in front of Cheng Guang, he paused and then suddenly spoke up, "My father said that in just two days, Princely Heir will head north to marry my sister. Princely Heir\'s status is a match for my sister\'s, as is your standing. No one can object to that."

"But as her brother, I\'m concerned. Therefore, I planned to come and see Princely Heir for myself, since my sister\'s resolute and decisive nature is different from that of typical noblewomen."

Cheng Guang listened quietly.

"Princely Heir might not be able to accept my sister\'s character. If after the marriage you find that you dislike my sister, it will be too late. It might be better for Princely Heir to call off the marriage now."

"That would be a good thing for you, seeing as with your status, what kind of woman could you not have? Why must you marry someone like my sister, a soldier from the army?"

As Cheng Guang listened to Qin Gaozhi\'s words, a hint of curiosity appeared on his face, "You don\'t want Qin Yanqiu to marry me?"

"Are you worried about our incompatible personalities for Qin Yanqiu\'s sake, or is it because you yourself are fond of Qin Yanqiu?"

Qin Gaozhi replied candidly, "I\'m not worthy of such feelings."

Cheng Guang looked at him, not understanding what Qin Gaozhi was thinking.

If anyone else had asked Qin Gaozhi such a question, he certainly would have responded with a frown and anger.

However, today, the person asking was Cheng Guang, and even if Qin Gaozhi felt slightly uncomfortable, he wouldn\'t express it.

"I am but a lone child my father picked up from the battlefield. Whatever I have in this life, I owe to him. Even if I harbor different feelings towards my sister, I would suppress them. I am not entitled to them."

Cheng Guang laughed, saying, "So, you\'re not worthy, and now you come to me, suggesting that I let go, because you think I am also not worthy?"

Upon hearing Cheng Guang\'s words, Qin Gaozhi\'s expression stiffened, but he quickly regained his composure.

Even if that\'s what he thought, he wouldn\'t say it out loud.

If this Princely Heir would not let go, Qin Yanqiu certainly would not call off the marriage herself.

Seeing that Qin Gaozhi remained silent, Cheng Guang found it uninteresting. He yawned and said, "It\'s getting late. You should head back and get some sleep. I don\'t need a kid like you to worry about my marriage."

Having said that, Cheng Guang waved his hand, intending to return to his residence.

Qin Gaozhi took a deep breath, feeling an irritation rising in his chest. But then he remembered that today, he had slipped away from North City alone, secretly coming to the Capital. If he angered the Princely Heir, even if the latter killed him, he would have no complaint.

So he suppressed the irritation once again.

He respectfully lowered his head.

"Princely Heir."

Qin Gaozhi called out.

Cheng Guang paused his steps, turning his head towards Qin Gaozhi.

"My sister, Qin Yanqiu, is among the most talented in the Northern Expedition Army. She will certainly achieve the status of a Sky-Man."

Qin Gaozhi looked at Cheng Guang, his tone carrying a measure of admiration and reverence, though not for Cheng Guang.

It was for the admiration and reverence for Qin Yanqiu.

"Perhaps Princely Heir only wishes to marry someone of power and influence. Why delay my sister? If Princely Heir could consider the bigger picture, for the sake of the Northern Expedition Army and the general situation, I hope you would seriously contemplate finding another candidate."

Cheng Guang\'s eyes rested on Qin Gaozhi, and now he was somewhat puzzled.

"Are you suggesting that if I marry Qin Yanqiu, I would be disregarding the bigger picture?"

Qin Gaozhi bowed his head, "I dare not."

Cheng Guang laughed again, "Why try to convince me? If it\'s for the sake of the bigger picture, go and talk to the Duke of the State, to Qin Beifeng, to Qin Yanqiu."

"As for me, I only care about what pleases me, and I\'m the last to consider the bigger picture."

As the words of Cheng Guang fell, Qin Gaozhi\'s face subtly changed, looking at Cheng Guang in disbelief.

It seemed he hadn\'t expected the Town-Nation Duke\'s Heir to be such a free and easygoing person.
