Shang Wenming knew there was no other way, so he nodded and said, "Okay, you guys head out first."
He then said to Gu Xiaoqing, "I'm really sorry, I didn't expect things to turn out this way today. I initially wanted to treat you to a meal out of good intentions, but it ended up like this. Next time, when I visit your parents, we can have a proper conversation."
Gu Xiaoqing nodded; since Shang Wenming said this, she could only agree.
She pulled Gu Xiaoying and headed out.
The two of them quickly walked out the door.
Shang Wenming watched the two leave and angrily cursed Shang Wenhua for her interference.
Seeing Gu Xiaoqing and Gu Xiaoying leave, Shang Wenhua sat down, ignoring the looks from others, and despite the pain in her face, picked up her chopsticks and continued eating.
After all, the whole table of dishes, Gu Xiaoying and Gu Xiaoqing barely ate two bites, and many dishes weren't touched at all. Xiaoqing was testing Shang Wenming, and had ordered expensive seafood.
