“Misunderstanding?” Shao Yunduan shot them a cold look.
“I don’t see any misunderstanding here!”
Both Mrs.
Guan and her husband were taken aback by Shao Yunduan’s unexpected rudeness.
They looked somewhat surprised, and Mrs.
Guan couldn’t help but interject, “Lord Shao, Madam Shao is fine, isn’t she?
Of course, I failed to take good care of her today, and for that, I apologize!”
Mrs.
Guan made the apology sound like a reluctant concession.
If she had known she was in a futile competition with Qiao Xuan and wanted to outdo her in every aspect, she might have chosen to apologize earlier, realizing it felt as though she had slapped herself in the face.
Shao Yunduan grew angrier, glaring sharply at Mrs.
Guan.
“In your eyes, my wife might seem fine after the shock, but what if something had gone wrong?
You’ve certainly taught your son well, considering his young age!”
Mrs.
Guan disliked hearing disparaging remarks about her son.
“Lord Shao, that’s going too far!
Jia’er is just a child!”
“Had he been a few years older, Mrs.
Guan might have realized the potential consequences.”
Indignant, Mrs.
Guan retorted, “What do you mean by that?!”
Shao Yunduan sneered.
“How do you plan to explain your Young Master’s absurd words to me?
Where did he hear such ridiculous things?”
Mrs.
Guan, dissatisfied and eager to argue, was stopped by Deputy Prefect, who wore an amiable expression that softened people’s anger.
His demeanor and smile left a positive impression.
He courteously cupped his hands.
“Lord Shao, please calm down.
This woman is ignorant and inarticulate.
She doesn’t know how to express herself.
Lord Shao, disregard her!
It’s all her fault.
She failed to take proper care of the child.”

“Fortunately, Madam Shao is blessed.
Otherwise, I would never forgive this woman!
Once Madam Shao is better, I’ll have her prepare a gift before coming to apologize sincerely.
Naturally, we will cover the expenses for the treatment and medicine.
We won’t allow Lord to spend any more money!”
He continued to apologize profusely with a bitter smile.
“Jia’er is still young and doesn’t know any better.
I don’t know who’s spreading rumors, but Lord Shao, please believe me.
I have no intention of interfering in your governance of this state!
My wife harbors no ill intentions either!
I will thoroughly investigate this matter and provide you with a clear explanation!”
Shao Yunduan’s fury did not diminish.
However, Guan Jialing was genuinely just a child who lacked understanding.
Arguing with such an “insensible child” would serve no purpose.
That was precisely why Mrs.
Guan felt empowered to maintain her self-righteous and nonchalant attitude.
Given Deputy Prefect Guan’s comprehensive explanation, Shao Yunduan found himself with little more to say.
After Deputy Prefect concluded his statements, a cold silence enveloped the room, and the atmosphere turned increasingly oppressive.
Mrs.
Guan, sensing the need to break the silence, attempted to clear her throat but found herself hesitating for some unknown reason.
Even Deputy Prefect Guan, usually composed, felt an inexplicable unease.
After a brief pause, Shao Yunduan spoke icily, “Since Deputy Prefect Guan has spoken, I will await your thorough investigation and your son’s discipline.
You need not attend the government office for the time being.”
