During the contest between her father and Meng Linyuan that year, it was clear that Meng Linyuan had lost. He was no match for her father's skills. Still, he had the audacity to say something like 'If my father knew about this, he would definitely get involved. Our families have had such a long relationship; how could he ever let him struggle alone without lifting a finger?'
That sentiment can be interpreted in two ways. One, it implies that his skills surpass her father's.
The second implication is that if her father had sought his help during that period, he wouldn't have killed himself out of guilt.
The people surnamed Zhou and Ma admired Meng Linyuan's expression at that moment. They were thrilled, thinking 'how could anyone not admire such sentimentality?'
Yu Jingrong couldnt help but laugh at this theatrics, revealing a seductive and enchanting smile.
After a moment, she asked lightly: "It seems Uncle Meng's jade carving skills have improved tremendously over the years."
