Because she was the daughter of a concubine of the Lu family, Lu Pingrong was the most observant. She keenly caught the hint of displeasure that flashed through Shi Zhen's eyes.
"Husband, don't misunderstand. I didn't have the intention to guess your thoughts, nor did I say anything I shouldn't have after returning to my family. I've been prioritizing you for many years and I'm even more loyal to you. I've never had any thoughts that I shouldn't have. I believe you know that."
Shi Zhen, who was originally a bit displeased, looked much better after hearing that.
"I naturally know. My wife, don't think too much about it."
Seeing that Shi Zhen really wasn't dissatisfied with her, Lu Pingrong continued, "I accidentally heard from my family that Shuangshuang had some conflicts with that genius alchemist. So, I thought that if the Shi family wants to invite that alchemist to refine pills, it's best to resolve the misunderstanding first."
