Guan He looked around and, seeing no one paying attention to them, spoke in a low voice, "I would like to help, but your wife is so tricky. Why should I provoke her for no good reason? Speaking lightly doesn't work, speaking harshly is just as useless, and who knows when she might turn hostile. Not only will I miss out on meals, but she might also send Zi Ning back at any time, changing who looks after Qi Jia."
"Ah Yan would deny you meals?" Jiang Yifan didn't believe it.
