Lu Fengxuan sat steadily, immovable as a mountain.
"Madam Yu, it's my lack of discipline that has led this wayward girl to offend you so brazenly. I apologize on her behalf. Please, tell us how she should be punished to appease you, and I'll do as you say."
Sun Father's face bore an obsequious smile as he bowed and scraped.
Watching this scene, Lu Sirong quietly shifted her legs, preparing to sneak away when no one was paying attention.
Lu Fengxuan noticed her movements, her lips curling with disdain, her eyes filled with contempt.
"Madam Yu, I beg that you will not hold the young accountable for their actions and forgive Jingjing just this once," Sun Mother pleaded.
"From now on, we will make sure to keep a tight rein on her and won't let her trouble you again," Sun Mother added.
As she spoke, Sun Mother raised her hand to Sun Jingjing's neck, pressing down forcefully. "Jingjing, hurry and apologize to Madam Yu, admit your mistakes, quickly!"
