"And what does Miss Xiang have to say?"
"Prime Minister Gao divorcing his wife is one matter, but apologizing and paying compensation is another. They can't be conflated," Ye Qianning said, stepping forward and looking up at him with big, bright eyes.
Prime Minister Gao hadn't expected her to press the issue even after he had divorced his wife. 'She still won't let it go.' "Miss Xiang, you shouldn't take things too far."
"That's not right. This isn't about taking things too far; it's about basic human respect. Her disrespecting you and your decision to divorce her is a private matter for the Gao family. But she forced the coachman to drive recklessly, causing the horse to panic and crash into all these people and carriages. She must apologize to the coachman and to us, the victims. That is a matter of basic decency and responsibility," Ye Qianning said, enunciating every word, her small face completely serious.
