At 10:35 am, Gu Jiangnian and Jiang Muwan descended the stairs one after the other, to the synchronized, attentive salutes of the household staff below.
Lan Ying, having been at the Gu Mansion for many years, had never seen her master bring home any of his rumored girlfriends, much less had she witnessed him so eager to send his wife away.

And it wasn't just Lan Ying! Who in the Gu Mansion wasn't thinking the same?
Adults are best at gauging the times and reading facial expressions to serve dishes accordingly.
This new young mistress was known for her bad temper, which her master repeatedly indulged.
The servants had thought it was affection.
But it was only today that they realized, if a man truly cherishes a woman, how could he keep her hidden away?
How could he not allow others to even mention her in front of his mother?
