The first watch, asking for pinks.

Ever since the incident with the pot bottom for Lian Shouli, Lady Zhou didn't know if she was truly upset or what, she was very quiet for a while. This so-called quietness meant that during the monthly visits from the Lian Manman family to check on her and Old Master Lian, she never spoke a word, only occasionally glaring fiercely at Lian Shouxin.
It was definitely a gaze filled with a sense of righteousness, condemning others. This gaze could be unbearable for anyone with a slightly fragile spirit, even creating an illusion that they had committed some heinous, unfilial act.
In the past, Lian Shouxin absolutely could not withstand such a gaze. Fortunately, he had grown up now, had made up his mind, and wasn't so easily swayed, even if the opponent was Lady Zhou.
