The Elder Queen also didn't want to make a big fuss, everyone would end up in an embarrassing situation, so she timely intervened and tried to mediate things: "Alright, it's just a dinner, having one more or one less person won't create a storm! There's no need to let your mood be affected by an unimportant person, let's continue with our meal!"
And just like that, the Elder Queen smoothed things over and implicitly approved of Helian Yingbo bringing his paramour to the family feast.
While the atmosphere of the meal was affected by Helian Yingbo's arrival, it didn't bother Helian Chengyan and Chi Xingye.
Helian Chengyan was still attentive, cutting the steak for Chi Xingye, placing the dish in front of her and allowing her to enjoy it leisurely.
After she finished eating, he then put a medicinal soup, made especially for her, in front of her to drink.
