"If she truly loved Jingchen, how could she disregard his future and reputation this way, making such a scene with her radical methods and bringing along so many women? Clearly, it was premeditated. I may be old, but I'm not senile. Yuan Jiayin is probably not the same Yuan Jiayin I knew."
Ye Lu fundamentally respected Old Sir Shang's insight. She also thought that Yuan Jiayin was not so simple, but after all, this was the Shang Family's matter and it was inappropriate for her to voice her opinion.
However, is Yuan Jiayin really as severe as Old Sir Shang described?
Old Sir Shang made it sound like Yuan Jiayin was a great threat to the Shang Family. If she were to marry Jingchen in the future, they would be husband and wife. How could she harm the Shang Family?
"I can't let the fruit of the Shang Family's lifelong toil fall into that woman's hands."
Ye Lu too was troubled: "But when Jingchen comes back and sees all this, he will misunderstand me even more."
