Zhu Shi was completely dumbfounded.
"What on earth is all this mess..." she said.
I was also blown away by this sudden turn of events—should I call it a sudden turn?—to the point where I didn't know how to respond to Mazao at all.
Although I knew Mazao had a strong protective instinct towards Little Bowl, I didn't expect her to transfer this protective instinct to Zhu Shi at such a critical moment, becoming a staunch supporter of the marriage between Zhu Shi and me.
Meanwhile, Lu Chan appeared to be deep in thought. He seemed to have left his "spectator" mode, and his expression turned serious as he spoke, "Excuse me, may I say something?"
"Lu Chan, this is a matter between Zhuang Cheng and the Zhu family. You shouldn't interfere, should you?" Mr. Zhu said.
