Min Zhiheng had managed to pluck a strand of Shang Qing’s hair while she wasn’t paying attention, under the guise of admiring her hair clip. Although the process had gone smoothly, he still felt a faint twinge of guilt. As for his mother’s hair, he had obtained that just moments ago, using almost the exact same method. However, he hadn't been quite as lucky this time; as soon as his mother realized what he was doing, she grabbed a small stick and gave him a sound thrashing. Min Zhiheng had been forced to hop around like a monkey, dodging left and right in a state of utter disarray. It was precisely because of this that he had returned a bit late, missing the moment Lu Yuxi was bullying Shang Qing. He simply assumed it had been nothing more than a minor misunderstanding between the two girls.
Otherwise, knowing Min Zhiheng’s personality, if he had actually seen Lu Yuxi bullying Shang Qing, how could he possibly have invited Lu Yuxi to leave in such a gentle, easy manner?
Chi Yunning looked at her son’s foolish expression, couldn't help but rub her forehead, and laughed, "That all began with this little beauty’s sharp wit." With that, Chi Yunning began to recount the scene she and her sister had witnessed. Only then did Shang Qing realize that she had been noticed from the very moment she started bickering with that woman. This made her blush with embarrassment.
