"Meh"
While things were getting steamy somewhere in a tiny room in the imperial palace something big was about to happen.
One would describe it as the clash of the titans while others would shrug their shoulders and say, "Meh, it's just a son in law interacting with his father in law for the first time. How bad can it be?"
Whether you are the clash of the titans faction or the 'meh' faction it was most definitely going down.
And how did Ji Wen manage to get Rui Fei away from Ji Yao? It was pretty simple actually. He was kidnapped. Where? In the kitchen, while he was making snacks for Ji Yao. Rui Fei fully understood the principle of 'happy wife happy life'. If he wanted Ji Yao to wear whatever it is that was in that box, he needed to have him in an excellent mood.
