Lu Zhengran sat on the sofa and rubbed his temples. He had already heard about Su Cheng's court hearing today, and he knew without thinking that Mei Qing had gathered the whole family for this matter.

"Brother and sister-in-law, is Qingxue still a member of the Lu family? You've found your daughter, but are you just going to abandon Qingxue now?!"

Mei Qing complained irritably, as if she had suffered a great injustice.

At Grandma Jiang's birthday banquet a while ago, she personally went to talk to Wen Yao, only to find that it was impossible to reason with her; Wen Yao had a very stubborn temper.

She called Chen Shuhua several more times afterward, but Chen Shuhua was on a business trip with Lu Shan at the time and didn't have time to talk to her.

"Mei Qing, why don't you just take Qing Xue to apologize to Yao Yao? I've been away on a business trip for several days, why hasn't this matter been resolved yet?"

Before Chen Shuhua could speak, Lu Shan said that as a businessman, he had to deal with interpersonal relationships every day, so he thought this matter was very easy.

But for Mei Qing, bowing her head was out of the question. She was an elder, and how could an elder bow her head and admit her mistakes!

Lu Qingxue was even less likely to agree; she hated Wen Yao so much that she wanted to tear her apart.

"Brother, you make that sound so easy. I said all the nice things at Grandma Jiang's birthday banquet a while ago, but your daughter just wouldn't listen to a word I said. If I had a solution, I wouldn't need to bother you two!"

Mei Qing put her hands behind her back and plopped heavily on the sofa, clearly showing a bit of a temper.

An awkward silence quickly fell over the house.

Lu Qingxue's lips turned down, and she leaned her head against Grandma Lu, looking pitiful.

"Grandma, I don't want to go to jail."

Her voice carried a hint of a sob.

Grandma Lu was heartbroken.

"Oh dear, boss, you should talk to Yao Yao. How can a family act like this?"

Now that you're finally home, you have to resolve this matter, or do you want to watch this family fall apart?

Although Lu Shan did not want to get involved in this matter, the old lady had already spoken.

"Okay, I'll go talk to Yao Yao about this."

By the way, sister-in-law, what are you planning to give Yao Yao as an apology for?

This question left Mei Qing completely bewildered.

She still needs to prepare gifts? She'd already taken care of everything without even going to Wen Yao to settle accounts.

Moreover, the word "apology" is too harsh. How can an elder ask a younger person to apologize?

Seeing Mei Qing's expression, Lu Shan instantly understood that they had wanted the other party to withdraw the lawsuit without any preparation.

“Sister-in-law, if you want them to drop the lawsuit, you should at least show some sincerity, especially since you are their second aunt.”

Mei Qing was speechless for a moment.

"Well... how am I supposed to know what to bring? She might not even want the things I have."

Mei Qing's voice grew softer and softer, her momentum clearly waning.

Lu Shan curled his lip, saying all that, but he didn't even want to spend a single penny!

“I remember Lu Yuan owns several entertainment businesses. He’ll give that KTV in downtown Haicheng to Yao Yao. Tomorrow, Qingxue will come with me to find Yao Yao.”

After Lu Shan finished speaking, he and Chen Shuhua got up and went back to their room. The two of them had just returned home and were pulled into the living room, and hadn't had a proper rest yet.

Not long after, Lu Zhengran also left.

After Mei Qing and the rest of the main family left, she glared angrily at the doorway.

"The eldest brother is going too far. The family business already belongs entirely to his eldest son's branch, and now he wants to take away our family's KTV as well."

This KTV is quite profitable, but Mei Qing has hundreds of millions of yuan in cash as pocket money every year, so she doesn't care about the KTV's profits.

But she was still angry and didn't want to give Wen Yao anything.

"Alright, it's just a karaoke bar. The main thing now is to resolve Qingxue's matter."

Lu Qingxue hugged Grandma Lu's arm.

"Grandma, I don't want to go to see Wen Yao with Uncle. What if Uncle makes me apologize to her? I don't want to. Mom, can you come with me?"

Mei Qing didn't want to go; it would be too embarrassing.

"I don't want to go either, I have things to do tomorrow."

Lu Qingxue's face was extremely pale. She hadn't expected Wen Yao to persist for so long and refuse to withdraw the lawsuit.

That evening, Lu Shan returned home and called Wen Yao, telling her that he would bring Lu Qingxue to He Feng Villa to see her the next day.

Lu Shan did not completely hide the truth from Wen Yao. He knew that if he did, the matter would become unnecessarily unresolved.

Wen Yao didn't have much of a problem with Lu Shan. When Lu Shan asked to see her, she agreed. As for Lu Qingxue, she still held the same view: Lu Qingxue had to experience pain before she would let her go.

The next day, Lu Shan made a special appointment with Wen Yao, choosing a time when Wen Yao got out of school.

When Wen Yao drove back to Hefeng Villa, she saw a Maybach already parked in front of her house.

Wen Yao first parked her car in the garage, and then took the elevator upstairs.

At this moment, Ji Chu walked over.

"Miss, someone is looking for you outside the door."

"I know, please let them in."

After saying that, Wen Yao walked into the tea room.

Before long, Ji Chu invited the two into the tea room.

Lu Shan and Wen Yao sat facing each other, while Lu Qingxue sat next to Lu Shan.

Upon seeing Wen Yao, Lu Shan did not immediately bring up the topic, but instead took out a small gift box.

"Yaoyao, your mother bought this for you when she was on a business trip a few days ago. I think little girls like this."

After saying that, Lu Shan took the gift out of the bag.

It's a carousel made of gold, various colored gemstones, and diamonds. It's a limited edition, and Chen Shuhua bought it specifically for Wen Yao.

Wen Yao was indeed quite interested in this thing, and touched the gemstone on it with her hand.

"There's a music box down here, you can try it."

Wen Yao gave it a gentle twist, and the entire carousel started to turn, with soft music playing from inside.

Wen Yao was quite interested and took it in her hands to examine it carefully.

Lu Qingxue sat to the side feeling a little awkward. Neither of the father and daughter paid any attention to her, and besides, Lu Qingxue was also a little girl, and she liked the carousel too.

The various gems and diamonds on it were so dazzling under the lights that they were almost blinding. Chen Shuhua used to bring her gifts when he went on business trips, but now this beautiful carousel belongs to Wen Yao, and she has nothing.

"Ji Chu, put this carousel in the living room as a decorative piece."

Wen Yao called Ji Chu out. She really liked the little rocking horse, so she asked Ji Chu to put it away.

"Alright, is there anything else?"

In an instant, Wen Yao snapped out of her emotions.

This left Lu Shan somewhat at a loss.

"By the way, Yao Yao, I have something important to discuss with you today."
