Zhang Miaozhen was considered a gentle person and would not give people any uncomfortable feelings. She was a very meticulous person. It was impossible for her not to notice that Liu Shimei was a little bit affected by Miao Linglong's arrival.
Rather than saying she was not welcome, it was more accurate to say that the surprise outweighed the delight.
She explained, "Shimei, don't blame me for playing matchmaker. I heard that Madam Miao needed medical help, and I couldn't refuse."
"I didn't blame you," Liu Shimei said warmly with a faint smile, inviting her to sit down. "I thought you and Miss Miao had a good relationship."
Zhang Miaozhen pursed her lips and said, "Our relationship is not bad. As you know, Linglong is the younger sister of my aunt's cousin. Due to this family connection and our similar age, we've become quite close in recent years. We attend gatherings together and even meet frequently in private."
