Lu Chenyuan helped Xu Qingli into the car, his hand resting on the door frame as he leaned over to look at her.
"Are you being too hasty?"
Xu Qingli's expression changed slightly, "I was too permissive before. Because of you, Gu Yi ended up like this. Lu Chenyuan, if you are a man, you should take responsibility. Even if you were my son, I wouldn't favor you."
Lu Chenyuan's eyes were deep and somber, "Did the Gu Family send you to plead their case? What conditions did they offer for you to put in so much effort?"
Xu Qingli snorted coldly, "I'm doing this because I care about you. If you irreparably sever ties with the Gu Family, it could trigger a chain reaction and bring about countless troubles. Lu Chenyuan, our business wasn't easily whitewashed."
Lu Chenyuan closed the car door and walked away.
Xu Qingli pinched the bridge of her nose, deep in thought.
