Sang Wan "pfft" chuckled and unconsciously glanced back, noticing no one was around, then proceeded to eat.
The two teased and flirted playfully for a while until Sang Wan, mindful of paying respects and the matter concerning the third house, urged him to hurry, and Shi Fengju finally reluctantly stopped. After breakfast, they rinsed their mouths and donned their fur-lined satin cloaks to head over to Mrs. Wang's.
"How come you're later than usual today?" Mrs. Wang was already accompanied by Shi Yumei, who couldn't help but complain upon seeing them arrive leisurely.
"Had a bit too much to do yesterday, got tired," Shi Fengju replied with a faint smile.
Shi Yumei gave him a disparaging glance and hummed lowly, distinctly dissatisfied with Sang Wan not joining the conversation.
"These past few days have been indeed busier, Miss Wan has truly worked hard!" Mrs. Wang spoke, "But no matter how hard it is, the work must be done well, and we can't let people pick out faults!"
