Er Daniang tugged Shen Fuzhen along, racing all the way to Shen Yunfang's doorstep, only to of course find the iron general guarding the door.
"Oh dear, we've come at a bad time, Yunfang isn't home again, I think we should just forget it today, and come back another day when she's home," Shen Fuzhen sighed with relief, pulling Er Daniang to head back. On the way here, her fever-hot brain had cooled considerably, and she now regretted everything immensely. That little ancestor had powerful backers—definitely not someone she could afford to provoke. If she were to be caught again, she would be ruined.
So, upon arrival and finding nobody home, she was actually relieved.
But Er Daniang, of course, was not content to return empty-handed after such a busy morning wearing down her lips for naught without gaining any advantage; she could not reconcile with that. "We've already come all this way, we can't just leave like this."
