The politician probably already had firsthand news about his resignation as the Mu family's head, but what he could not find out was…
Even if he had left the Mus, it was only temporary!
Song Zhengguo froze for a moment. However, since Mu Yazhe had shed any pretense of cordiality first, he decided to forgo the small talk and cut to the chase. "What happened to my daughter was all thanks to you! I'm a reasonable person, though. She only has herself to blame for landing in such a situation! On the account of you being cousins with my wife, I shall let this matter drop!"
In other words, he was saying that, since this young chap and his daughter each bore half the responsibility of this matter and seeing that the former was now down-and-out after leaving the Mus, he would take no actions against him for old time's sake!
How pompously said!
The young man did not fall for it, though.
