Liang Chen came downstairs, and Qiu Xia had already learned from the mansion's guards what their Madam intended.
Qiu Xia nodded and went back to report to the young Master without greeting Liang Chen; they acted on behalf of their respective masters, and in fact, they were not friendly at all.
Everything depended on what their employers wanted, and they did things just to survive.
Qiu Xia left, and Liang Chen did not stop her, instead asking her own guard.
Liang Chen learned from the guard that Mrs. Meng had already been informed and had ordered that no one else be allowed to enter here, and even more so, that no one should know their Lady was inside.
Liang Chen had long known that such behavior from the Lady would quickly reach Madam's ears.
What punishment she might face afterwards was unimaginable; all that mattered was preserving the Lady's honor, and in that regard, Madam was right.
