Seeing that Gu Zi was so magnanimous, Su Jing quickly said, "You're the best, Sister-in-law!"
Gu Zi realized that Su Jing was no fool and understood the value of keeping things civil.
"We can discuss the facts without getting too worked up," Gu Zi replied indifferently.
Her message was clear: she was willing to let bygones be bygones for this incident alone. Any future grievances would be addressed separately.
Su Shen also saw through his sister's intentions and issued a warning, "Think carefully about your actions in the future. If something like this happens again, I won't intervene on your behalf."
Su Jing nodded obediently and bid them farewell.
However, as soon as she turned around, the jealousy in her eyes revealed itself.
Su Shen was her brother, and now he was openly and secretly supporting Gu Zi, an outsider. How could she not feel a sense of imbalance?
