Watching Zhong Niangyao's resolute demeanor, Nolan Deye still wanted to speak up and retain her. However, before he could open his mouth, he was directly interrupted by Zhong Niangyao.
"Emperor, there's no need for you to continue trying to persuade me," Zhong Niangyao lifted her head, her tone was light but her attitude exceedingly firm, "Once I decide on something, I will not change it. I've come today only to bid you farewell."
For a time, Nolan Deye was at a loss as to what else he could do.
After a long while, he sighed, opening his mouth helplessly, "Since the State Preceptor is so determined, my efforts to persuade you would only cause distress. However, before you leave, there is one thing I would request the State Preceptor's assistance with."
Clearly, he was unable to retain the one who wished to leave, and so he had to seize this final opportunity to ask for one more favor.
