The Second Old Grand Master sat at the head of the room, watching Yueyao slowly approach. For some reason, his heart was filled with indescribable emotions. Yueyao was indeed strong-willed; in other families, as long as the head of the household agreed, it was enough. Women had no say.
Despite her dissatisfaction, Yueyao did not show it and stood after paying respects to the Second Old Grand Master, without speaking first.
An Zhichen found himself in a difficult position as he looked at Yueyao, who was calm as still water. If it were someone else, he would surely protect Yueyao, but the Second Old Grand Master was different, as he had done a great favor for An Zhichen.
The Second Old Grand Master took control of the situation, dismissing the others until only three remained in the small lounge. He then asked, "Heyue said that you disagree with adopting Brother Xu into my family?"
