194 Yun Meng (Second watch of the night)_2

That was Madam Shen. If it weren't for the Shen's banquet tonight, no one would have had the privilege to even meet her - such a high and mighty mayor's wife, yet, she warmly held Zhu Mingjing's hand, with her first words being, "Congratulations, congratulations. If Elder Theodore hadn't made the first move, I would have adopted you as my goddaughter. Who wouldn't treasure such a smart and beautiful doll?"

"Elder Theodore, you must treat Mingjing well from now on, or I won't let it slide."

Elder Theodore chuckled, "If I don't spoil my daughter, who will?"

Mingjing smiled faintly, "Madam worries too much."

Madam Shen patted Mingjing's hand, speaking softly, "The Diamond Sutra you told me about last time has been very enlightening. I will seek more teachings from you when I have time."

When it was Mrs. Gu's turn, although she still had a long face, she managed to say a few nice things, all thanks to Shen Zhou.
