"Xiu, your temper remains just as terrible as always. Look at this, people have come to beg me. For my sake, can you stop for now? If they dare to provoke you again in the future, it won't be too late to take action then."
It did not surprise Lan Xiu at all that she would plead for them.
Back when they were in F Country, Duan Jingwen was always remarkably attentive to her.
What he didn't expect, was for Lin Ruoying to suddenly appear.
To save the Duan Family, Duan Jingwen is really doing everything he can!
She is desperately trying to protect the Duan Family, perhaps this implicates her other interests as well.
It seems the benefits the Duan Family gave her were impressive.
Mrs. Lan seemed to really understand her son's thought process. He never responded to being pushed, only gentle persuasion, and even then he might not necessarily cooperate.
She has always been adaptable, a woman who was good at dealing with people.
