This Guan is so sentimental; she has no shame.

She was engaged to the young master of the Shen family.

On the one hand, she couldn't suppress her feelings and secretly pledged her life to A-Ling.

Guan Shuli was filled with resentment, yet she still obtained the love, money, and status that she could never have.

However, to her surprise, Madam Shen was not angry.

He even said, "I think you've misunderstood."

"I think that Shuqing is a beautiful and kind-hearted girl, and there must be quite a few people who want to be her friends."

"Since we're friends, we can just interact normally, so don't overthink it."

"No, madam, what I said is true. You must believe me."

"My sister, she really has gotten together with another man."

"Just a month ago."

This sounds reasonable and well-founded, and Guan Shuli doesn't know why she doesn't believe it.

"alright."

She wanted to say something more, but the old lady interrupted her, saying, "Since you're here, why don't you rest here for lunch?"

"Xiao Lan, take Miss Guan to the guest room to rest first."

"yes."

“But…” Guan Shuli frowned; she didn’t want to leave.

The old lady didn't want to hear her say any more, so she turned her face away and didn't even look at her.

Soon, Guan Shuli was taken away by the maid.

Behind the screen, a man in a dark red robe slowly walked out, holding a folding fan.

"Mother."

The man's handsome face was clouded with gloom.

The old lady looked up at him, a meaningful smile playing on her lips.

"You heard everything."

"Um."

"So, what's your opinion?"

"Mother, the man she's talking about is me."

"Hahaha..." the old lady suddenly burst into laughter, "I knew it."

She knew it from the moment she mentioned that Guan Shuqing was having a very pleasant conversation with a man.

What a coincidence!

This guy went to the south of the city and came back saying he would marry no one but her.

It's obvious that something must have happened between Guan Shuqing and him.

“I don’t think Guan Shuli is a good person either. Tell Shuqing to be careful of her sister.”

“I know, and Lyricism knows too.”

After so many things happened in the south of the city, anyone with a brain knows that the mother and daughter are not good people.

"Good to know."

Turning back, the old lady said to the relatives, "You all heard it. The man Miss Guan was talking about is my son, Changling."

"I heard it, I heard it."

"Pretend you know nothing about this today, and don't gossip about it to anyone when you go out tomorrow." The old lady always spoke directly.

Those people dared not utter a word, nodding in agreement, "We know, we all understand."

"I won't say anything nonsense, Madam, please rest assured."

It wasn't until noon that everyone was ready to eat.

Rong Shang still did not appear.

The old lady asked Shen Changling to call her over for dinner.

He went to Changling.

When I got to the door, I heard rustling sounds coming from inside.

Shen Changling pushed open the door and went in, seeing her sitting on the edge of the bed getting dressed.

"You're awake." The man smiled gently.

Rong Chang nodded.

After getting dressed, she stood up and stretched.

I asked him, "What's going on outside? Why is it so noisy?"

Shen Changling didn't understand. "What's all the noise about? There's nothing there."

It's quite quiet here.

But……

"Something's not right." Rong Shang frowned. "Has Guan Shuli arrived?"

"..." Upon hearing this, the man paused, then asked her, "How did you know?"

It's really here.

Rong Chang remained silent.

No wonder.

She said she kept hearing Guan Shuli's voice.

"Does she eat here for lunch too?"

"yes."

The man walked over to help her tidy her slightly messy hair.

She looked up at him and asked, "Did she come here to cause trouble?"
