Gu Xiyao originally didn't want to sit here, but since Tong Ji Yuan directly called her, she had to sit out of courtesy or politeness. Yet upon hearing what he said, she quickly said, "I came over just to say hello to Uncle, and my cousins. I'm back this time to discuss marriage with Ah Sheng. We haven't married yet, so Ah Sheng can't sit at this table. Therefore, I'm going over to accompany Ah Sheng, Uncle, excuse me!"
She spoke politely and gracefully, then got up to leave.
Tong Ji Yang almost slammed the table, "Why so much nonsense from you all? Eat!"
Tong Songbai then said, "You go on behalf of me to toast the uncles and elder brothers."
"Got it!" Tong Ji Yang took a deep breath, a bit reluctantly walking away.
Only Tong Ji Yuan and himself were left at the table, Tong Ji Yuan promptly said, "You take advantage of this birthday feast to let Ji Yang get to know more people in the political circle, he seems unwilling."
