Shi Nian took a deep breath, and had no choice but to softly plead, "A Yuan... please don't do this, okay?"
Xiang Yuan squinted, scrutinizing Shi Nian, until finally satisfied, he smiled. Reaching over the table, he grasped Shi Nian's hand.
"Alright, I'll listen to my dear wife. You say don't do this, then I won't. Let's enjoy our meal and not talk about those unpleasant things."
"But A Yuan..." Xiang Yuan's way of reframing the situation made Shi Nian uncomfortable.
However, Xiang Yuan didn't give her a chance to speak, standing up with a smile and clasping his hands towards the waiter, "Sorry, it was my fault just now." Then, he addressed all the diners in the restaurant, "I've also disturbed everyone, I'm very sorry."
