Yuan Zhenyang was startled; he and the chief were former comrades-in-arms and usually referred to each other as brothers.
Yuan Zhenyang said, "Brother, what do you mean by that?"
The chief replied, "Your daughter and son-in-law have done something improper to begin with, and they even did it so overtly, bullying an internet celebrity with millions of followers online. Now look what happened, it's all over the internet, and we virtually have no control over the situation."
After thinking it over, he added, "Let me give you a way out, while many things haven't been discovered yet, you better hurry and apologize to the parties involved. As long as the person who called the police and the victim don't press charges, we certainly won't do much on our side either."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhenyang frowned but still spoke in a pleasant tone on the phone: "Thank you for the reminder, Brother Xie."
