It took Xie Dun quite a while to recover from the shock. His face showed an array of emotions, from anger and embarrassment to guilt towards Sister Hongxiu.
Ji Ziyan, standing next to him, couldn't help but burst into laughter. He had initially maintained a "not-my-business" demeanor, but he hadn't expected Bai Ruozhu's scolding to be so satisfying. This was the first time he'd seen Xie Dun being arrogantly silenced by a woman, and he couldn't resist laughing.
Even after laughing, he felt it was inappropriate and spoke again, commenting, "This really is like your aunt's style."
He only commented on Deng Shi, not mentioning whether Xie Dun was right or wrong. However, his laughter alone was enough to make Xie Dun ashamed.
"Ruozhu, what you said is correct. From now on, this kind of thing will never happen again," Xie Dun said to Bai Ruozhu, his face red.
