Chapter 1150 - 366: Solution, Outbreak of Conflict
What was initially a matter within the Shen family had transformed into an issue involving both Shen and Liu families, and Mo Yan did not wish to see this affect the young couple’s relationship, so she signaled Shen Ji and Liu Tinglan to leave.
Shen Ji was worried that matters would become increasingly tense, and the wife he had finally married would be taken away; how could he simply walk away? In the end, it was Liu Tinglan who could not stand by any longer and forcefully pulled him away.
Liu Tinglan was grateful for her friend’s intentions, and although she trusted her friend to resolve the matter, she also knew that since the issue had become one between both families, the outcome was beyond what they as a couple could change. She was not worried in the least.
Seeing this, the Elderly Couple of the Shen Family also ordered the servants to take Lu Zhu away. The close relatives of the Shen family, upon witnessing the situation, took their leave on their own accord.
In the end, only Mo Yan and a dozen or so representatives from the Liu Family remained in the hall along with Elder Mr. Shen and Madame Shen.
The entire issue was, to begin with, a fault of the Shen family, and seeing Mo Yan’s expressionless face, Elder Mr. Shen and Madame Shen couldn’t help but feel uneasy. Noting that Mo Yan was still standing, Elder Mr. Shen quickly stepped forward and gestured with his hand, saying, "County Lord, please take a seat."
Mo Yan did not refuse and, with a slightly softened expression, nodded slightly to Elder Mr. Shen and sat down in the seat previously occupied by Madame Shen.
Seeing this, the couple silently breathed a sigh of relief. Madame Shen quickly invited the other members of the Liu Family to sit down and ordered the servants to serve the best tea.
Mo Yan seemed not to notice the anxious expressions of the Shen family couple; she casually played with the tea foam in her cup without speaking.
The room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop, and the Shen family couple felt even more uncertain, exchanging glances that revealed their shared concern.
