That night, Shen Qing went to Shen Jianshan's study and told him what happened today.
"Ridiculous! How could she do such a thing?" Shen Jianshan was furious. "Qingqing, you...ah."

Jin Manyue walked in with her maid and bowed to Murong Zhi.
"I told you, Princess, there's no need to be so polite."
"Etiquette cannot be abolished." Jin Manyue smiled indifferently, then walked to the chair and sat down.
