Yin Hao fell silent.
The topic was indeed first brought up by Yin Ruowei, but Ming Ge probably never had any intention of apologizing to Young Master Li. She was simply going along with Ruowei's words, thoroughly humiliating her in the process.
Telling her—
"The less you babble, the less you get beat down."
This beating, without the physical act, was comparable to a slap across Yin Ruowei's face.
...
Finally, seeing Yin Ruowei biting her lower lip, her pale face looking as if she was about to falter, pitiful to the core, Ming Zhiyuan frowned and said, "Ruowei, don't ever bring up apologizing again. After Young Master Li broke his promise and ruined Ming Ci's hand, now my Ming Family is supposed to apologize to him..."
"We've truly become bootlickers!"
He, Ming Zhiyuan, might not have any great abilities, but he couldn't bring himself to let his daughter grin and scrape, flattering others to protect herself!
