This put Lan Meifen in an awkward position.
She made a sound of surprise, then turned around and awkwardly touched her nose.
The others didn't say anything.
Madam Gong smiled and waved, and Rong Shang led Gong Ziming over to sit down.
Throughout the entire process, Lan Meifen's gaze remained fixed on them.
Unlike Lan Keyin, she didn't want to see her.
She kept looking at Zhang Ze beside her, but he didn't even glance at her.
Enraged, she lifted her foot and stomped on Zhang Ze's instep.
He didn't control his strength well, and Zhang Ze happened to be thinking about something.
When Lan Keyin kicked him, he cried out "Ah!" which drew the attention of everyone in the hall.
It was so embarrassing that Zhang Ze's face turned red.
"What's wrong?" Madam Gong asked him.
He shook his head and made up a vague excuse to gloss over the matter.
But then, he turned around and glared fiercely at Lan Keyin.
If they weren't at the Gong family home, he would definitely have a huge fight with her.
This is utterly reckless!
Lan Keyin felt embarrassed and secretly stuck out her tongue.
He reached down and touched his calf, but Zhang Ze stopped him.
Oh.
Rong Shang sneered, thinking they had utterly disgraced themselves.
There were too many people here, and Gong Ziming was not comfortable. He stretched every now and then and played with Rong Shang's hand.
Madam Gong could tell he didn't like the occasion and was about to have Rong Shang take him upstairs.
The second concubine spoke up again, "Hey Miss Yun, I see your parents are here too. Why don't you go back with them later?"
It saves me from eating the Gong family's rice here.
The second concubine was outspoken and didn't know how to hide her dislikes.
As soon as she spoke, all three people in Lan Meifen's row looked at her with slightly strange expressions.
The second concubine didn't care; she simply didn't like this woman.
Gong Ziming understood what she meant, and he quickly held Rong Shang's hand tightly, "No, sister can't leave."
"What nonsense are you spouting?"
Seeing Gong Ziming's reaction, Lan Meifen breathed a slight sigh of relief.
She couldn't let Yunxi go back to the Yun family and fight them for the family fortune.
Madam Gong stopped him, "Zi Mo, you can't be so disrespectful."
Gong Ziming frowned, turned to look at the woman beside him, whose expression was calm.
There was no significant reaction.
"Sister." He said pitifully, scratching her palm with his fingers.
Rong Chang laughed because she felt itchy.
The second concubine thought she was laughing at her, and her face immediately fell again.
She snorted and muttered under her breath, "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking."
She just wanted to cling to Gong Ziming because he was stupid, hoping to marry into the Gong family and claim a share of their property.
While the others didn't hear it, Rong Shang heard it clearly.
She just smiled and didn't say anything.
Only after seeing the pitiful look in Shang Gong Ziming's eyes did he say, "Don't worry, I won't leave."
The man was relieved and stayed obediently by her side.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Lan Meifen laughed a few times and stepped in to smooth things over.
“I think Young Master Gong likes our Yunxi quite a bit. Why don’t we let the young people get to know each other better?”
"No rush."
snort.
The second concubine sneered inwardly, "Aren't you in a hurry?"
You guys are just eager to send people over here.
She was the only one with a sour face the whole time, making the atmosphere extremely awkward.
Madam Gong glanced at her, pursed her lips, but said nothing.
She simply turned to Gong Ziming and said, "You guys go up first."
"It's getting late, it's time to rest."
They were intentionally being directed to avoid this place.
Gong Ziming quickly understood and immediately pulled Rong Shang away.
