"Manman!" Lian Zhizhi's voice rang out from the West Room of the Upper Room.
Lian Manman hurried into the Upper Room; the door to the west room had been tightly closed but was now open. Lian Zhizhi pulled Lian Manman inside and promptly shut the door, sliding the bolt into place.
Once inside, Lian Manman saw that not only was Lian Zhizhi there, but also Lady Zhou, Lian Xiuxiu, Lady Gu, Lian Duoduo, Lady Chiang holding Niuniu, and Lian Yaya were all in the room as well.
The atmosphere in the room was extremely tense.
"Manman, why did you come back, what are you doing here?" Lian Zhizhi asked urgently.
Seeing her like this, Lian Manman knew the situation was dire.
"Manman, go and see what they are saying in that room. Why haven't your second uncle and his wife come back yet?" Lady Zhou sat upright on the bed-stove, her face drawn tight, speaking to Lian Manman.
