Xiang Weinan's face was grim, but when Xiao Family saw him, she was obviously very happy. She let go of Shu Yu's hand, walked a few steps to him, and spoke with some excitement, "Husband, I heard Monarch Lu Xiang is here, so I came to say hello and plan to invite her to sit in the backyard."
When facing her, Xiang Weinan was not as casual as he was with Shu Yu; he replied with a serious face, "No need, she still has things to do."
Xiao Family's smile instantly became stiff.
Shu Yu felt the atmosphere was indeed awkward and quickly said, "Sister-in-law, I just got back home yesterday and indeed have many matters to attend to. I took some time today to deliver something to Lord Xiang and must leave immediately. Let's arrange to catch up over tea another day."
Xiao Family turned her head, forcing a smile, "Is that so? Monarch Lu Xiang is indeed a busy person, then I won't keep you."
These words... made Shu Yu feel a sudden tightness in her scalp.
