Instead of moving, Gu Chaoyan sat there quietly, looking very cold. She frowned even more deeply and answered calmly, "Maids are supposed to serve the tea."
Zhou Huaiyu, who had been very displeased, was now smiling. He had been thinking that something was wrong with the Gu Mansion, but he had not sensed what was wrong. Now when Chaoyan was here, he finally understood what was wrong - Gu Zhenkang was a literati and an officer in the court, but he did not even know how to behave properly! He asked his daughter to serve the tea for him! Even if that daughter of his was born by a concubine, she was still a lady, not a maid.
He suddenly felt that everything was better, and even the air too as he was seated here. However, he found that the two extra people in the hall were quite annoying. "Officer Gu, and Lady Gu, just get down to your business, me and Elder Miss have our own business to talk about."
