Qingyun's Love: Tiger Boy Falls in Love with a Pretty Lawyer

Not even a day later, good news arrived. Master Wu decided to have Young Master Wu bring Hu Ling to the side room of the mansion for a chat. Although it sounded like he still wasn't welcoming, it at least opened a door.

After hearing this, they were all extremely happy. They also guessed that the teacher had given Master Wu some words of advice, and based on the previous mediation by Master Zhang, the ice in Master Wu's heart was slowly melting.

When we met the instructor later and asked for details, he simply laughed it off and said it was just a simple exchange, nothing to worry about. We just assumed he was being modest and didn't ask any more questions out of politeness.

Later, Young Master Wu indirectly learned that the instructor's strategy was to use his own experience to explain things. He confessed to Master Wu that in his youth he had deeply loved a woman and that they were about to marry. However, his mother, disdaining her humble background and her mundane work, firmly disagreed, even threatening to sever their mother-son relationship.

The woman couldn't bear to destroy their mother-son relationship, so she decided to suppress the relationship and leave. She regretted that she didn't insist enough at the time, and under the pressure of her mother, she was unable to keep the man she loved.

Many years later, when he had enough courage and ability to fight back, the woman had vanished into thin air, leaving him with endless regrets and a lifelong pain.

The teacher's frank recounting of his experience moved everyone to tears. Mrs. Wu wept, and even Mr. Wu, a man of such a hard heart, was forced to reflect on whether parents should be too involved in their children's marriages, fearing that this would cause them lifelong regrets and severely damage their relationships.

After this earnest talk with the teacher, Mr. Wu and his wife discussed the matter for a long time in their bedroom. At Mrs. Wu's insistence, Mr. Wu finally relented and agreed to arrange a time for a meeting with Hu Ling.

Everyone's admiration for the instructor deepened. After all, not everyone was willing to share their inner secrets, even their pain. Especially a heroic figure like the instructor, who sometimes deliberately avoided romantic matters.

But for the happiness of Wu Shao and Hu Ling, he did not hesitate to reveal his emotional pain to others, and persuaded them with both reason and emotion, thus promoting changes in the concepts and tolerance of his parents and elders. This is truly admirable.

Amidst their admiration, everyone began discussing how to prepare for this first official meeting. Some offered suggestions for clothing and makeup, while others pondered how to speak to Mr. Wu and discuss gentle, non-sensitive topics.

Hu Ling thanked everyone for their concern and help, but she was also a little worried that Mr. Wu might continue to make offensive remarks during the conversation, leaving her unable to cope.

Young Master Wu comforted her, saying that his father might make some more requests, but the current situation was different from before and he would not make things difficult for her.

Everyone thought back to the three rules Master Wu had mentioned earlier, wondering if he would bring up a third constraint that he hadn't mentioned before.

Seeing that the others were feeling a bit down, Wu Shao brought up his trump card again. Someone urged him to quickly tell them what powerful trick he hadn't used yet.

But Young Master Wu hesitated for a long time and didn't say anything. Ran Mo saw this and said, "Since you feel it's hard to say it in front of us, then you'd better not say it in front of your father, so as not to backfire."

Young Master Wu was momentarily stunned. Hu Ling tugged at his sleeve, signaling him to listen to Ranmo. Qingsheng, knowing Ranmo's intentions, chimed in, "Think carefully before you speak, and be especially careful not to drag others into this."

The others saw them playing dumb, not knowing what to say. Wu Shao looked at Ran Mo and Qing Sheng, trying to figure out what they were thinking.

But it was not convenient to make his inner thoughts known to the public at this moment. The atmosphere in the room became somewhat silent.

Qingsheng suggested that they should go and test Mr. Wu's attitude to see what he would do next and what his real thoughts were.

Several people looked at each other in bewilderment. This kind of mission probably depended on Young Master Wu alone. Anyone else would be defeated. Everyone knew that old man had a stubborn temper and a sharp tongue.

Qingsheng glanced at the others' expressions and chuckled. Of course, the others hadn't known about Ranmo's famous confrontation with Old Man Wu that day, nor had they witnessed it. It was practically enough to draw applause from the onlookers. Ranmo had played an invaluable role in dampening Old Man Wu's spirit.

But without Ranmo's permission, he didn't dare to tell this matter rashly. He looked at Ranmo to see if she wanted to meet the old man again.

Ran Mo looked at him, understanding his thoughts. Great, you're quite capable of pushing your beloved into the enemy camp. But then again, she found it quite amusing to bicker with Old Man Wu. She could just consider it a chance to hone her debating skills.

However, he must not act rashly at this moment and must wait and see how things develop. If things go smoothly, then there is no need for others to interfere in their affairs; if problems arise, then he can decide whether to confront the old man again.

Ranmo talked about his views with everyone in general, and said that if there were any twists and turns, they could get together to discuss it, and hold a debate or roundtable meeting like last time, and they would surely be able to come up with a solution.

Everyone agreed and went back to their own places. Hu Ling, in particular, needed to make some preparations, as this was her first time meeting her future in-laws.

That morning, the Wu residence was relatively quiet. Everyone near the gate had been sent off to other tasks. Qingsheng and Ranmo were already waiting in the hallway.

A short while later, Young Master Wu and Hu Ling came in from outside and joined the two. They hadn't dared to invite too many people today, fearing they would disturb Master Wu's peace and quiet. However, they needed the covert assistance of their close friends, Qingsheng and Ranmo. The four of them arranged a time to meet.

Young Master Wu went into the back hall to inform his parents that Hu Ling had arrived. Master Wu told him to take Hu Ling to the west wing to wait. They would go over and question her later.

After Young Master Wu emerged, he briefly explained the situation. The four of them then headed towards the west wing, located opposite Qingsheng's room. This was usually used to receive ordinary guests. While somewhat secluded, it was spacious and well-organized, offering a more relaxed atmosphere than questioning in the main hall.

After the four of them entered the wing, they chatted briefly. According to their previous plan, Qingsheng and Ranmo temporarily retreated to a corner outside the wing. Staying here would prevent them from being seen by anyone entering the wing, but if there were loud conversations inside, they would be able to hear some of it.

Ranmo hadn't been keen on eavesdropping, but Wu Shao and Qingsheng both wanted to be open and helpful. So she didn't refuse. It would be helpful to learn more about the situation.

The two couples settled into their respective seats. A moment later, footsteps were heard approaching. Mr. and Mrs. Wu entered the wing room. There was a simple greeting, followed by a brief silence.

It was Mrs. Wu who broke the awkward silence and asked about Hu Ling's family background. Hu Ling told the truth, after all, she was from a wealthy family, and answered with neither servility nor arrogance.

Mrs. Wu nodded slightly, expressing her approval and reassurance. She waited for Mr. Wu to speak. Mr. Wu cleared his throat and said, "My Wu family has always been open-minded. We don't care about your family background. The most important thing is that you must be clean now.

I'm not narrow-minded. If some of the past situations were truly unavoidable, as you say, we can let them go. But there's still a lot you need to do, such as the two points I mentioned last time. Can you do them?"

Mr. Wu was still a bit aggressive in his words. He didn't ask what the other person thought or whether they agreed or not, but directly asked if it could be done. If Hu Ling said no, there would probably be no further discussion.

Hu Ling hesitated for a moment and didn't answer. Wu Shao spoke for her, "Dad, Hu Ling has already told me that the first step is to move away from the original place. She can definitely do it. Her original intention of staying there to write the book was just a temporary solution."

As for the second point, writing is her only hobby and it is also beneficial. It is really unjustifiable to deprive her of this right."

Mr. Wu glared at her and said, "Did I ask you? Let her speak for herself." Hu Ling then bravely raised her head and answered, meeting Mr. Wu's gaze, "My thoughts are exactly what Mr. Wu just said. I can't give up my hobby of writing.

It's my lifeblood. Over the years, through countless trials and tribulations, even when I was on the verge of collapse, writing has kept me going, keeping me alive and living my life to the fullest. Therefore, I can't give it up, just like I can't abandon my loved ones.

Speaking of this, Hu Ling seemed to recall the sad things in the past, her voice was slightly choked, but she still tried hard not to cry.

Mrs. Wu's eyes were red, and she turned to look at Mr. Wu, hoping that he would not be too harsh on Hu Ling. Mr. Wu also wanted to comfort Hu Ling, but Hu Ling said no.
