Lu Guo’s lips trembled. He bent down without caring much about his ego and said, “Mr. Ji, you’re a magnanimous man. Please forgive Nuannuan. We are at fault this time…”
“Dad!” Lu Nuannuan widened her eyes in disbelief. She stood in the fountain drenched. She felt a chill rise from the soles of her feet, all the way to the bottom of her heart. Why? Why was her father apologizing to the culprit who had bullied and humiliated her?
Mrs. Lu stopped her, “Nuannuan, stop it. Apologize to Mr. Ji and Mrs. Ji properly. Listen to me!”, she emphasized.
“No! Why should I apologize to her!” Lu Nuannuan’s tears kept falling. She felt a mixed feelings of grievance and anger. She cried, “I will never apologize to her. I will never apologize to her!” As she said that, she climbed out of the fountain, grabbed her wet dress, and ran away.
“Mr. Ji, it’s my fault for not teaching my daughter well. Please…” Lu Guo smiled apologetically. “You are a generous man, please don’t take heart.”
!!
“Mrs. Ji, it’s all our fault for spoiling Nuannuan.” Seeing that Ji Yan was unmoved, Mrs. Lu approached Shen Hanxing. She begged, “It’s Nuannuan’s fault for not being sensible. I’m so sorry. You didn’t get harmed anyway this time. Can you please forgive Nuannuan?”
Shen Hanxing’s gaze fell on Mrs. Lu and she sneered. Was she supposed to forgive Nuannuan just because she wasn’t harmed? How would that be reasonable?
“Hey, what’s going on?” At this moment, a voice sounded. Lu Feng walked over with a face full of surprise and looked at the chaos. He couldn’t help but exclaim, “Wait… Why is there such a big mess? Brother, sister-in-law, the engagement party is about to start. What are you guys doing?”
Lu Guo clenched his fists. He was extremely reluctant to let Lu Feng see him in such a sorry state. Soon, someone beside explained to Lu Feng about the incident. Lu Feng put on a smile on his face and stepped forward. He told Shen Hanxing, “Mrs. Ji, I’m really sorry. The younger generation in our family is not sensible. On behalf of the Lu family, I apologize to you. Look, today is Shaoyang’s engagement party. It’s his big day…” He rubbed his hands and said with a smile, “It’s so unfortunate to create such a scene on a joyful day. Both of you are guests here to attend the engagement party. How about this? Later, I’ll ask Nuannuan to apologize to you. Let’s forget about this. Is it okay?” After saying that, he looked at Lu Guo and Mrs. Lu. He asked, “Brother, sister-in-law, what do you think?”
“What do I think? I don’t think so.” Lu Guo mocked him before continuing sarcastically, “You’re just a manager of the Lu Corporation. How could you represent the Lu Family? Get lost. Don’t annoy Mr. and Mrs. Ji. Don’t create more troubles!” As the CEO of the Lu Corporation, he couldn’t even convince Ji Yan. How could Lu Feng think that he could convince Ji Yan and Shen Hanxing?
“Brother, I’m just trying to help.” The smile on Lu Feng’s face faded slightly as he calmly said, “Even if you don’t appreciate my kindness, there’s no need to be sarcastic.”
“I’m asking you to see your position and not embarra.s.s yourself here,” Lu Guo sneered. He continued bluntly, “Do you think you’re a big shot? I wish you could help, but please take a good look at yourself. Could you do it?”
“What if I can?” Lu Feng’s face turned cold. He seem to be irritated by Lu Guo’s words as he responded, “I haven’t done anything yet. How can you be sure?”
“If you can, I’ll let you go to the R&D Department!” Lu Guo became so angry and promised impulsively, “I shall see how you will convince Mr. and Mrs. Ji!”
“It’s a deal!” Lu Feng sneered and said, “Mr. Ji, Mrs. Ji, can we have a few words?”
“It’s alright. I think you’re much tolerable than the others,” Shen Hanxing smirked and said indifferently. “As Mr. Lu Feng said, let’s just forget about it.” Ji Yan would not cling onto the matter since Shen Hanxing had decided to let it go. It was settled so easily. Mrs. Lu was taken aback, whereas Lu Guo’s face turned even gloomier.
Although they managed to keep the Lu family’s reputation, he was really upset. After a long while, he gritted his teeth and muttered, “Second brother, you’re great!”
