บท 52: Slap

Jiang Yue's face was suffused with heat as she lowered her head and grasped Wang Lan's hand, her voice barely above a whisper, "Mother, I'm not that admirable, Sister Gu Dai, oh, I mean Gu Dai is also quite exceptional."

Wang Lan cast a glance at the flustered Jiang Yue who had just corrected herself, and her mind instantly conjured up the assertive image of Gu Dai. Instinctively, she felt a greater affinity for Jiang Yue and subconsciously stepped protectively in front of her.

Song Yu adopted a similar defensive stance beside Jiang Yue, his glare firmly fixed on Gu Dai, "I won't let you bully my sister-in-law!"

Gu Dai surveyed the trio, their demeanor as if they were guarding against a predator. A cold huff escaped her lips before she posed her question with apparent sincerity, "Has grandpa already given his blessing to Jiang Yue?"

This left the trio at a loss for words.
