They probably had not eaten.
In truth, Wei Zhiqian had arrived much earlier than Xu Mingzhen imagined.
He always had men keeping an eye on the Yuan family.
When he was notified that the Yuan family had set off to come to the Tan Mansion, he had also left home with his men by his side.
He had arrived at the Tan Mansion's entrance at almost the same time that the Yuan family had entered.
Then he had heard the contents of their entire conversation.
So because he had set off so early, naturally he hadn't yet had dinner.
"I really haven't eaten yet." In the eyes of the Tan family's father and sons, Wei Zhiqian's current polite manner of explaining himself resembled a large wolf.
"As I had Zhou Jingan blocking Yuan Keqing's way on the first day of the examinations, I had expected that this shameless family would harass you, and I arranged for my people to keep an eye on them. Today, when the men watching them informed me that they had come here, then I also hurried here.
