"Captain, this can't go on. Miss Shanshan sleeps until noon every day. Isn't that a bit too lazy? Shouldn't you say something? If a girl carries on like this, what man will dare to marry her in the future? She's not young anymore. If you don't discipline her now, it'll be trouble later..."
His tone carried a hint of self-righteous concern as he spoke.
Before he could finish, Ling Anxun's head snapped up, and he looked the man up and down.
The air froze in an instant. Everyone else who had been talking fell silent.
Ling Anxun stared at him for a few seconds, then suddenly let out a cold laugh.
"My daughter can wake up whenever she pleases. I'd happily let her eat in bed if she wanted. Is it your place to stand here and criticize?"
"I... I didn't mean it like that... Captain, please don't misunderstand..."
The man stammered, beads of sweat forming on his forehead.
He tried to explain further, but Ling Anxun didn't give him the chance, cutting him off coldly. "Get out."
