Old Madam took the opportunity to say, "Oh well, you can't really put it that way. Remember how initially you thought that Lyke would never get married? Now he has a girlfriend. Since he now has a girlfriend, isn't the wedding just around the corner?"
"We're here today to discuss their engagement, aren't we! You have to take things one step at a time; you'll definitely see how it unfolds." Old Madam added.

Samson Zhekova guided Third Old Master Zhekova to a chair at the table.
Old Madam signalled for everyone else to take a seat.
