"ah!"
Madam Chen's expression changed slightly, and she quickly asked, "What exactly happened? Tell me the details of what happened."
"It's like this, today..."
Soon, Chen Ziqiao recounted the events of the day in detail.
After hearing his words, Madam Chen frowned and fell into deep thought.
After a short while, her furrowed brows relaxed, and she picked up the scissors to continue pruning the potted plant.
While trimming, he said, "Why are you so easily startled? It's normal for the father to arrange a marriage for Mu Yue, since he is Mu Yue's grandfather."

"Ah, Mother, I have something to do, I'll be going now." Chen Ziqiao's expression changed, and he quickly made his escape.
Madam Chen watched his retreating figure, shook her head, and then looked towards the direction of the Li family mansion, a look of worry appearing on her face.
