Lin Yuan had lost all patience with Lady Jiang and rolled her eyes silently before getting up: "Mother, the fabrics should be about right by now, shouldn't they? Let's head back! The waters run far too deep in this Chen Family Cloth Shop; we'd better not come here again in the future."
Lady Liu was equally disappointed with Lady Jiang. Upon hearing Linzi's initiative to leave the Chen family behind, her heart swirled with complex emotions, and she nodded: "The reason we've come to the Chen Family Cloth Shop at all is for Xiao Linzi's sake. Now that Xiao Linzi is gone, there's no need to come again. Besides, there's no shortage of cloth shops in the Capital—I doubt we'll run out of places to buy fabric!"
