Chapter 343: Tactics of a Pure and Innocent Girl (3)
“If you don’t wish to make me angry, you shouldn’t have done such a thing!” Bao Junyan was even more stern now.
“I’m still young and sometimes I can be rash,” Huo Yuqi said, acting like a spoiled child.
“Your sister-in-law is the same age as you, but I’ve never seen her stirring trouble like you do!”
“I will follow her good example from now on!” Huo Yuqi wasn’t a complete fool. Apart from her moronic idolization of Ling Wei, she was rather bright and sharp when it came to other things.
Given the situation, she was behaving so well, so what could he do!
Bao Junyan was about to speak again when his cell phone rang. It was Huo Yuqi’s mother calling on video.
He gave Huo Yuqi an icy glare and picked up the call.
“Junyan, I heard that Yuqi has stirred some trouble.”
“Uh-huh.”
“Pass the phone to your wife.”
“What’s the matter?”
“What else? Of course I want to have a look at my nephew’s wife, as well as apologize on Yuqi’s behalf! See how you are protective over even this matter. Do you think I’d chew her up over the screen or something?” As she said all that, Meng Yueying feigned anger.
Bao Junyan held the phone out to Mu Huan and said, “Second Aunt, Yuqi’s mother.”
Mu Huan: “…”
Mu Huan took the phone and on the screen saw a classy and beautiful middle-aged lady.
When the beautiful middle-aged lady saw her, she immediately smiled.
As the saying goes, one never slaps a smiling face — and even more so if it’s a senior.
Mu Huan smiled politely in reflex.
“What a pretty young lady. No wonder Junyan dotes on you,” Meng Yueying praised with a smile.
Mu Huan didn’t know what to say so she only smiled politely.
“May I call you Xiao Huan?”
“Of course.”
“Xiao Huan, Second Aunt and Uncle are presently overseas. We’ve spoken to your mom and told her that we will go back to attend your wedding.”
“Okay.”
“Yuqi called me earlier. She said she did something very wrong at school. She said that in a moment of folly, she hurt your friend.”
Mu Huan kept silent.
“In our family, Yuqi is the only girl and she has been spoiled from birth. Whatever wrong she’s done, it boils down to my fault that as her mother, I’ve failed to educate her. Of course, she’s done something wrong and she needs to be punished. Tomorrow, we’ll get her to apologize to your friend, then you decide how you want the harm that your friend has suffered to be compensated and we’ll just do that. Is that alright?”
As a senior, Meng Yueying did not try to make excuses for her daughter’s shortcomings. She had proactively offered that Huo Yuqi would go and apologize and had even asked Mu Huan to decide how they should compensate Li Meng.
What else could Mu Huan say?
If at this point she still insisted on suing Huo Yuqi, then it could eventuate that the girl would not only not apologize, she could also hold a grudge that could prove to be fatal in the end.
Furthermore, even if she insisted on taking this matter to court, she knew that, at best, such trivial civil suits would just end up with slapping a fine. And what was a fine to people like her who had nothing but money?
Might as well get Huo Yuqi to apologize.
Alas…
She thought about the harm that had been inflicted on Xiao Meng and how it was going to be so easily resolved with a word of apology — and very obviously, it was a case of Huo Yuqi going to Xiao Meng personally to offer a private apology. She was indignant.
At this point…
Bao Junyan said, “Well, then, when Yuqi goes to class tomorrow, she will apologize to Xiao Huan’s friend in front of the class and ask the girl for forgiveness.”
Meng Yueying: “…!”
Huo Yuqi: “…!”
Their intention was to offer Li Meng an apology in private.
And he had decided it should be a public apology!
