Gong Zhuang originally thought that after his daughter came back, he would celebrate with a big fuss.
Then he'd invite friends and family for a meal, not caring about the red envelopes, but hoping everyone would share in his daughter's happiness.
After receiving a call from Gong Qiang, Gong Zhuang completely gave up on this idea.
If he were to host a banquet, should he invite Gong Qiang? If not, what would people think? If he did, what would those who don't get along with Gong Qiang whisper about?
To avoid the celebration for his daughter's achievement turning into a platform for Gong Qiang to show off, it's better not to host a party at all.
One should always be low-key; being too high-profile isn't good.
Not having to host a banquet, Gong Jiaxin was also relieved, meaning she could simply take her brother to visit their grandparents, uncles, and aunts.
