Sun Bai was certain that Shao Yunduan wouldn't haggle or fuss over such a trivial matter. Why, then, was this woman causing such a scene?
Watching the woman's two maidservants engage in heated argument with the others only served to heighten Sun Bai's irritation. However, he opted not to intervene. After all, it wasn't his place to mediate. Besides, taking sides would only complicate matters further.
