The answer seemed obvious.
Even before Shang Ruyi opened her mouth to answer, she heard Yu Wenye beside her let out a light hum, as if already knowing her response without any surprises.
Her role was never meant to be that of Yu Wenye's wife, but rather the daughter-in-law of the Duke Sheng.
However, Shang Ruyi did not answer immediately.
After pondering for a moment, she looked up and softly said, "Father, I think it would be best to stay in Luoyang for the time being."
As soon as she said this, while others might remain calm, Yu Wenye immediately turned his head to look at her, his face rarely showing a clear emotion—unbelievable, clearly not expecting her to make such a choice.
Feeling his gaze, Shang Ruyi glanced at him, then quickly lowered her head.
