"I... can I say a few words?" Yue Hui spoke up.
"Of course, Miss Yue. Please, go ahead," Zhou Rongli replied with a gentle smile.
The elderly lady and the others turned their attention to Yue Hui.
"Actually, this is originally your family matter, and I shouldn't interfere. However, seeing everyone troubled by it seems unnecessary and not worth it. From Mr. Jiang's attitude, it's clear he doesn't wish to get too involved. Old Madam Zhou, I understand your feelings; after all, both your children and grandchildren are dear to you. Naturally, you want everyone to live in harmony, but the reality is different. Please don't make things difficult for your daughter and your grandson. To be honest, as long as Mr. Jiang is willing, your family could easily become a top family in Huaxia. You should align more with Mr. Jiang's intentions; his actions are guided by reason and will not be wrong," Yue Hui said, clearly standing from Jiang Chen's perspective and treating his principles as sacred.
Hearing Yue Hui's words, Zhou Rongli nodded in agreement while the elderly lady pondered in silence.
Noticing that the elderly lady still seemed uneasy, Yue Hui continued, " Old Madam Zhou, as the saying goes, 'It's better to resolve enmity than to deepen it.' This situation arose because of your three sons' mistakes; at the very least, an apology is warranted. Instead of stepping in to plead for them, it would be better for them to apologize personally. Only with an apology can there be a chance for reconciliation."
"Miss Yue is right," the elderly lady finally nodded. "I'll call Zhou Pingyong right now and have him come to apologize."
Zhou Rongli remained silent; the elderly lady was determined, and she couldn't keep refusing her.
However, Zhou Rongli couldn't guarantee what would happen with Jiang Chen.
"But Old Madam Zhou, you need to prepare yourself. From what I know of Mr. Jiang, even if your three sons apologize sincerely, the final outcome will still be that they might escape severe punishment but will not avoid lighter consequences," Yue Hui added seriously.
The elderly lady smiled bitterly; she was merely god-grandmother and perhaps her words carried less weight than those of an outsider.
She took out her phone and called Zhou Pingyong.
At that moment, Zhou Pingyong and others were in the hall, pacing anxiously; today's outcome had been a complete disaster for him.
"Big Brother, what should we do?" Zhou Pingming and Zhou Pingnan were now thoroughly panicked.
"What else can we do? At worst, we can just avoid Zhou Rongli from now on; we won't see them again," Zhou Pingyong tried to act nonchalant but lacked confidence.
Yesterday Jiang Chen had said he would make him wish he were dead; with Jiang Chen's abilities, he could definitely do it.
Saying he wasn't afraid was a lie.
Suddenly, his phone rang.
Zhou Pingyong glanced at it; it was a call from the elderly lady. He had no choice but to answer reluctantly.
The elderly lady urged him to come quickly to apologize to Zhou Rongli's family. Zhou Pingyong still struggled with his pride but eventually went to find the elderly lady in the private room due to her strong insistence.
Once inside the private room, the atmosphere became tense as Zhou Pingyong and the others entered; however, Jiang Chen was not present.
"Eldest son, second son, third son, you three need to apologize to Zhou Rong Li," the elderly lady commanded sternly.
Zhou Pingming and Zhou Pingnan hesitated no longer; with their eldest brother clearly unreliable now and hearing the elderly lady's reprimand, they quickly steeled themselves to apologize to Zhou Rongli.
Zhou Rongli's expression was calm, showing no reaction.
"You're so Zhou Pingyong," the old lady growled.
"Big Brother, stop being stubborn and apologize to Zhou Rong Li quickly."
