Second senior brother Wang Manchun couldn't bear to reveal the reason, waiting for tonight's gathering for Master to personally explain everything.
On the other side, Mr. Du had been distracted since he woke up in the morning.
His wife, Cheng Liying, entered the study and saw him pouring water from the teapot, the teacup already overflowing, spilling water onto the table, yet he remained unaware.
She sighed, "Old man, the teacup is full."
Upon hearing 'the cup is full,' Mr. Du suddenly came to his senses.
Quickly calling his wife, "Please help me get a cloth."
Saying so, he hurriedly moved the books to the side.
As Cheng Liying wiped the table, she said, "Enough, stop overthinking. I know you feel guilty, but things have come to this point, you should have told Xinyan earlier.
It's not good to let things end up like this; if you feel too ashamed to face her and don't explain the matter, she'll only dislike you more as her master."
