In the presence of the City Lord, she could have her say, so it wouldn't come to harming their marital affection just because of Lin Nian, an outsider.
"Rong'er, you must not seek out Lin Nian again, or else, your aunt will have someone send you back to the Ding Family and forbid you from entering Sky City again, understand?"
"What?!"
Ding Rong was astonished upon hearing her words.
"Auntie, you can't do this, you should be on my side. Lin Nian is but a minor captain of the guards. For Rong'er to like him is a blessing he could never earn in several lifetimes!"
"Silence!"
The lady sternly interrupted her.
"A young lady, always talking about liking this and liking that, do you even know what liking means?"
"I..."
"Enough, go back now. Your aunt will have someone watch over you. You are forbidden from seeing Lin Nian again. If your aunt finds out you've seen him, then I will truly do as I say and send you back to the Ding Family!"
