"For what reason?" Mrs. Jin exclaimed directly upon hearing that this jinx Ruan Xiao Jiao was going to ride in the same carriage to the Capital with her and Mu Dade.
"Why are you so agitated? She's just going to the county, while we're headed to the Capital, hundreds of miles apart," Mu Dade said irritably, displeased with Mrs. Jin's reaction.
"Dan Dan's father, don't be angry, that's not what I meant. I just think... Since Ruan Xiao Jiao is the concubine of the County Magistrate, being too close to her, wouldn't the County Magistrate misunderstand something if he knew?"
Mrs. Jin could no longer say anything like nothing ever happened between her husband and Ruan Xiao Jiao.
She didn't want to investigate who's to blame now, just hoping her husband wouldn't be criticized over this matter.
"Dan Dan's father, maybe you find my words unpleasant, but where avoidance is needed, we still need to avoid it. If such things affect your career path, do you think it's worth it?"
