Avoiding Sang Yumei's gaze, I thought to myself, that's not what I meant. Look at your eyes! You won't even look at me properly.
Sang Yumei, don't be unreasonable.
Me? Unreasonable? Sang Yumei laughed maniacally, and after a moment, a tear rolled down her cheek. I knew I was dirty; afraid of tarnishing the Sang family's reputation, I had never dared to show my true name or face. I had prepared my whole life to be an invisible person. But if outsiders didn't know me, that was one thing; how could my own family not know me? What I've done for the Sang family is no less than any of you. Sang Yuxin, how dare you treat me like this!
Younger sister, Sang Yuxin said with a gentle smile as she stood up and walked over to hold Sang Yumei's hand. How could you think that way about your elder sister? She's just been too busy, and since we're the closest, she might have overlooked it. I promise from now on there will be no more of this; you'll be the first to receive an invitation.
Is that so? I heard that after returning to Duke's Residence for just one day, elder sister reclaimed the power of the head matriarch and was already planning a banquet, even choosing the date. According to what you just said, when will you send me the invitation?
It was just a thought; we haven't chosen a date yet. Let's talk about it later.
Sang Yumei suddenly shook off her hand. Elder sister, have you forgotten what I do? The information network in Jingjing City is in my hands; do you really think you can fool me with words?
Once again exposed, and with soft words failing to work, Sang Yuxin's face darkened. Sang Yumei, we are all part of the Sang family; we should prioritize the family over personal honor and disgrace.
Your honor and my disgrace are obviously not important to you.
Seeing that she wouldn't budge, Sang Yuxin grew impatient and took on the demeanor of a Duchess. This person must accept their fate. If this continues and affects others, the Sang family won't tolerate you any longer.
Sang Yuxin! So you've finally revealed your true colors. What gives you the right to threaten me?
The Sang family is in trouble; more than half have died, and those remaining are struggling to survive. Yet you, on the surface, went to a nunnery while living in luxury there—what a comfortable life for you.
All of us started from nothing and fought our way up alone. Only you didn’t have to think at all; you were merely a messenger for Sang Jue while using the manpower he and Chi Yan left for you to get by.
In all this, you only had to open your mouth. Without those two protecting you, what are you worth?
You look down on me, don’t you, Sang Yuxin? You haven’t even settled into your Duchess position yet and dare to flaunt yourself. If we talk about women's tactics, I know them best. If I casually stir things up in Duke's Residence's backyard, would you still have your current glory?
Sang Yumei! How dare you!
Why wouldn’t I dare?
You have no bond with Chi Yan; his tolerance for you is merely out of respect for the Sang family. That little bit of respect won’t last long if you keep causing trouble and I intervene repeatedly.
Don’t expect Sang Jue to seek justice for you from Abbot.
We are both in precarious positions—one utterly useless while the other holds secret power within the Sang family. Anyone can see how this will end.
With that said, Sang Yumei flipped over the table, scalding tea splashing all over Sang Yuxin. She screamed from the burn, startling many people around them. Nectar valued guests' privacy highly and blocked those who came to investigate.
Sang Qingxiao stretched lazily and sighed. After watching the play for such a long time, she had only taken a few sips of water. The table was in disarray, and it seemed there would be no meal after all. "Why not come to my place for a meal?" she suggested to Sang Zijing and Sang Yuzhen.
The two reacted quickly and followed her out of the tavern. As they descended the stairs, all eyes were on them.
Sang Zijing remarked, "By tomorrow, rumors of discord within the Sang Family will surely spread throughout the city."
"There's no need to wait until tomorrow; in just an hour, it will have circulated all over Jingjing City."
