Every day, he had to take some time to persuade her, hoping she would understand that he wasn't trying to give Shaoze's everything away to someone else.
It was just that the Rong Family needed a head of the family, and Shengjue needed someone to oversee the overall situation.
Besides, that "someone else" wasn't an outsider, he was his grandson, Shaoze's cousin, with the blood of the Rong Family running through his veins; there was no one more suitable than him to take charge of the Rong Family.
He also told the Rong matriarch that she had lost her husband and son, and she would need Mingyan to support her in her old age.
Mingyan was without parents, so she could treat him like her own child. If her relationship with Mingyan improved, it would be beneficial for both of them.
Mingyan would have an elder, no longer a lonely person.
And she would have a younger generation to take care of her, so her old age wouldn't be too bleak.
