"You never asked me, did you?" Wei Ruo retorted, her demeanor still as distant and indifferent as always.
"How could your mother have guessed that you would have such an extraordinary encounter in the countryside of Huzhou Prefecture if you did not bring it up yourself?" said Mrs. Yun.
Madam Bai was quick to speak in Mrs. Yun's defense, "That's right, Queen Mother, your mother worried about the hardships you underwent in the countryside of Huzhou Prefecture. She was so distressed, she didn't dare bring up your heart-wrenching past. If she happened to upset you for no reason, what on earth would we do then?"
When Wei Ruo saw Bai speaking on behalf of Yun, she was not surprised. Despite Bai's private rivalry with Yun, she understood who to prioritize and sides with the interests of the Wei Family when necessary.
"Indeed, I did not proactively share with you, but so what?" Wei Ruo retorted.
These words pained Mrs. Yun, and a pallor replaced her usual countenance.
