Madam Lu's eyes widened in shock: "Have you lost your mind?! For Qiao Yin, you're grounding me for two years? Didn't you say you didn't care for her? So why are you punishing your mother for her?!"
"How is this punishment? This has nothing to do with Qiao Yin; I'm doing this for your own good. I learned it from you. I don't know how to love anyone. You loved me in the same way, so I'm returning the favor. What's wrong with that?"
Madam Lu seethed with rage: "Of course, it's wrong! Don't think being the CEO of Shengling Corporation has made you untouchable, and you can just sideline me! I have bodyguards on my side; you don't call the shots!"
"Is that so?"
With a stern and emotionless face, Lu Lingche said, "Am I not the one calling the shots? Let me remind you, your bodyguards... they have all been fired by me."
"What?! That's impossible! They are paid by me, they are my people, why would they listen to you?"
"I can only say, you paid them too little."
