"Fine, fine, today is a family banquet, a day that's supposed to be joyful. There's no need to bring her up; Wen Mian has already gone abroad, and everything concerning her will be unrelated to us from now on."
The voice of persuasion belonged to an elderly aunt from the Pei Family.
She held a certain status within the household.
In recent years, she had been living in the neighboring city for her retirement and only returned for the family banquet today.
The harsher their words, the more uncomfortable Pei Zhiyao felt.
In the Pei Family, he was always seen as a gentle and scholarly figure.
No matter what others said, it wouldn't affect his emotions or judgment, but this was the first time he had ever lost his temper at the Pei Family, upsetting everyone.
"Come on, Zhiyao, have a couple of drinks with your dad, stop him from staying mad."
Pei Zhiyao glanced sideways at his father and, not seeing any particular reaction, slowly raised his glass.
