Even though Ming Lingyi wasn't an expert in poetry, she listened with rapt attention from the audience.
Jiang Yuchuan had also come to support Ming Lingyi today. However, he was aware of his status and knew it was best to keep his distance from her, so he hadn't arrived at Ming's Restaurant early as he used to.
After arriving, Jiang Yuchuan heard the debate between Ming Chengyu, Zhang Sifan, and the others. He momentarily forgot the reason for his visit and became completely focused on the three people on stage, listening to their respective interpretations of the poems. He was utterly engrossed. When he heard a point that particularly resonated with him, he couldn't help but exclaim in his mind, 'Brilliant!'
Without the Xie family causing trouble, today's review session was both lively and remarkably harmonious.
It seemed as though everyone had come simply to appreciate poetry, with no one harboring any ulterior motives.
Li Yun, of course, was also nearby.
