Pei Yuhan ultimately couldn't defy Mrs. Pei's wishes, even if she was reluctant in her heart, she knew that if she didn't apologize to Su Wenyue today according to her aunt's wishes, she would lose her aunt's affection and protection, which would truly be a loss not worth the gain. She had no choice but to swallow her pride temporarily, as there would always be a day when she could retrieve it.
"Cousin Yue, I'm sorry, I was too narrow-minded. I didn't mean anything else, and as you know, my upbringing was such that my stepmother and concubines at home were all causes for concern, so it's inevitable that I may be somewhat biased in my thoughts. After all, those sons and daughters of concubines are up to no good, and if you're too kind to them, they might get some ideas. I was just considering Aunt's feelings. If there's anything that has upset you, Cousin, please forgive me," Pei Yuhan said, on the verge of tears.
