Zhang Mei, with her excessive attire and a hint of impatience, stood at the entrance of the lavish Golden Palace Hall, attempting to maintain a façade of calmness as she greeted the arriving guests. However, deep down, her annoyance simmered, fueled by the absence of Li Na, whom she held a bitter grudge against. Seizing the opportunity, she turned to her husband, who stood beside her like a loyal guard. She whispered in his ear, her voice filled with annoyance.
"You know, Yifeng, it's no surprise that Li Na couldn't bother to show up on time. She's always been a disappointment," Zhang Mei sneered, unable to resist making mean-spirited comments. "I hope you're not surprised by her absence. After all, it's typical of her to disregard family obligations."
