Settling the Score (6)

Parents doted on their children, and children doted on their children, but very few doted on their parents more than their children. It was the same for Shen Xin. He naturally did not hesitate to choose his own flesh and blood.

He cupped his fists at Old Madam Shen. "Mother, it's not that I'm putting on airs in the house, but what happened today is unacceptable. As a general, I can't even protect my daughter. How can I face the ancestors of the Shen family? I'll definitely get to the bottom of this matter. Today, I should be celebrating your birthday, but I really can't watch Jiaojiao fall into a predicament and pretend nothing happened. I will go and apologize to you in person when this matter is resolved."
