Bab 684: 682

"Indeed, they forget about their mothers once they get a wife. The Elder Brother isn't even married yet, and he's already siding with her!" Xiao'er said mockingly.

The things you just mentioned terrified even me, so much so that I inadvertently spilled my tea all over myself. I almost made a scene and was discovered by Miss Zhu hiding inside. Besides, you put it so bluntly that how could anyone answer without feeling awkward? Miss Zhu probably blushed right on the spot!"

Xiao'er muttered, "I already put it very tactfully!"

Jingrui was speechless after hearing this. If this counted as tactful, then what would count as blunt? How much more terrifying would that be?
