Wan Manzhu's expression stiffened.
Her eyes fixated uncontrollably on a certain room, as if trying to see through the walls.
She didn't want to leave, yet she feared ruining the image that Grandfather Ruan and Grandmother Ruan had of her.
She could only manage a forced curl of her lips.
"...Alright, then I'll head back first and come find Brother Yingzhou... Comrade Gu later."
Having said that, she got up reluctantly.
She left with frequent looks back at the room she had left.
The Ruan family matriarch couldn't stand people who lacked propriety.
Wan Manzhu had just hit upon her pet peeve.
After her figure disappeared, the Ruan family matriarch said to Xiuying, "Xiuying, close the door. We won't be receiving guests at home for the next few days."
It looked like Wan Manzhu hadn't given up on Yingzhou yet.
She had to protect her grandson from her.
Xiuying responded cheerfully, "Alright!!"
Determined to defend the honor of young master Yingzhou.
