Auntie Si let out an audible snort and declared loudly, "If it weren't for the fact that we're about to embark, we wouldn't have let you off so easily. Return to your carriage and kneel for four hours before rising!"
"Yes."
"And if you dare to pull a stunt like this again, it won't end as leniently!"
"Understood…"
Qiao Wei cast her eyes downward and departed, her demeanor reflecting her contrition.
In the midst of the departing crowd, it seemed as if he could hear the whispers and mocking of the onlookers, intensifying his deep resentment toward Qiao Xuan.
Their departure was delayed for some time, with Shao Yunduan and Prince of Qingdi approaching to inquire about the commotion.
Auntie Si provided a courteous but casual explanation. After all, this wasn't a situation to be celebrated. It wouldn't reflect well on Prince Nuo Nuo, Princess Shuangfu's betrothed, to hear about it.
