"Second Brother, that Zuo Xiangning is nothing good! Aunt treats her like her own child, yet she conspires with others to harm her!" Zuo Xiangyu complained with a sense of injustice.
"Keep your voice down!" Zuo Ziteng reprimanded in a low voice, "This is a restaurant!"
Zuo Xiangyu bit her lower lip, her eyes red with anger, glared at both Zuo Ziteng and Zuo Xiangning, and suddenly turned to walk towards the door.
"Where are you going?" Zuo Ziteng caught her, softened his tone, and coaxed, "Stop making a fuss, I'll take you to release river lanterns in a bit."
Zuo Xiangyu stood her ground, neck stiff, neither moving nor speaking.
Zuo Xiangning stood up and said, "Second Brother, I'll go ahead to Wangyue Pavilion with Third Brother and Cousin."
Zuo Ziteng also feared that Zuo Xiangyu might cause a scene without a care, so separating the two seemed the better option.
"Your Third Brother is in the next room, don't wander off alone," Zuo Ziteng said with concern.
