Everyone was somewhat relaxed, but upon hearing Shen Yue mention the matter of losing one's head, they immediately tensed up.
Zhao Kai's anger surged forth.
Liang Hongyu, however, had sparkling eyes, watching Shen Yue with great interest.
The atmosphere once again became as tense as drawn swords and ready crossbows.
Cui Niannu suddenly remarked from the side, "Young Master Shen is truly witty, his jests and scolds all turn into fine articles."
With just a gentle word, she drew the attention of all the men, and then she pitifully said, "This is where Niannu resides, and it's not suited for entertaining many esteemed guests. Maybe Young Master Shen is dissatisfied with Niannu's neglect, hence the anger. How about Niannu punishing herself with three drinks to appease Young Master Shen?"
With a beauty so softly pleading, no man could openly rebuke her, and Shen Yue was no exception, "Miss Cui jests."
