Zhao Youming deliberately paused for a brief moment before he continued, "Initially, my father planned to attend your wedding and offer his apologies to you. However, he did not receive your wedding invitation and thought that you were still holding a grudge against him. As such, I have come over to apologize on his behalf. Youlin, I hope you could let bygones be bygones and don't lower your standard to meet his."
Zhao Youming sounded like he was apologizing to Zhao Youlin. In fact, he was mocking Zhao Youlin for failing to send the wedding invitation over and instead was questioning why Zhao Shuncheng was not present at her wedding. Furthermore, he also mocked Zhao Youlin for being so calculative with an elder, and that she was small-minded and had failed to show respect for an elder.
