Chapter 269: Chapter 269: Who Cares About That Damn Dog

Old Lady Luo was worried, deeply worried.

She regretted having teamed up with Boss He to hurt Luo Ning.

Not only had they failed to bring Luo Ning down, but they had also given her and others the opportunity and reason to teach her own son and grandson a lesson—it was a case of trying to steal a chicken only to end up losing the rice...

"I remember, President Ling of Shengtian Group, Ling Yuzhu, said at the banquet that if anyone wanted to cause trouble for Ning’er, they should have a word with her."

Mo Han fished out his phone from his pocket, and while fiddling with it, he said, "Ning’er, what was President Ling’s number again? I feel like calling her for a chat."

Luo Ning, understanding her husband’s intent, cooperated, "I think it’s 1380... wait a second, let me flip through my contacts."

Just as Mo Han was about to call Ling Yuzhu, Old Lady Luo, as if someone had grabbed her throat, gasped several times and hastily waved her hand, "Mo Han! Wait! Wait!"

Turning around, Mo Han asked with an innocuous expression, "Grandma, what’s wrong?"

"Everything is negotiable, everything is negotiable!" Old Lady Luo said with a smile plastered across her face, "It’s so late now, let’s not disturb President Ling’s rest."

"Besides, family scandal should not be aired in public—it won’t look good."

"Actually, it’s also my fault, I didn’t consider the feelings of both parties."

"Luo Yuantu has been the Director of the Group for so many years, and he’s always wanted to be the General Manager. Seeing that Ning’er became the General Manager, he felt unsettled, which is why he did such a thing on impulse."

"Yuantu, come here!"

While Luo Yuantu could ignore everyone else’s words, he dared not disobey his mother.

He hung his head and obediently came forward. He was just about to speak when — smack!

A crisp slap echoed through the hall.

Looking at Luo Yuantu, half of his cheek was marked with the vivid red of five fingers.

"This slap is to teach you a lesson!"

Old Lady Luo said coldly, "No matter what, Ning’er is your niece. If you dare to team up with outsiders to bully her again, I won’t let you off!"

"Go, apologize to Luo Ning!"

Seeing the once unapproachable Luo Yuantu being slapped brought a smile to Yang Meifeng’s face.

Luo Shanchuan silently watched his elder brother, aware that his big brother always sought revenge for the smallest grievance. Having lost face this time, he would surely find ways to cause trouble for his own family in the future.

Just then, Mo Han spoke up again, "Grandma, are you saying you’re without fault?"

With those words, silence fell in the hall.

Almost everyone’s gaze settled on Mo Han.

From what Mo Han implied, he seemed to be suggesting that Old Lady Luo should apologize personally—wasn’t that being too bold?

"Gulp..."

Yang Meifeng swallowed, finding her son-in-law to be unexpectedly firm, daring to confront Old Lady Luo head-on.

Luo Shanchuan also looked at Mo Han in disbelief. His mother had been proudly unyielding her whole life; how could it be possible for her to apologize to a junior?

Luo Ning’s lips parted slightly, speechless — she had never imagined making Grandma apologize herself.

It was Mo Xiaochen, who came out of the room holding a doll, that said in a childish voice, "The teacher said, if you do something wrong, you have to apologize..."

Old Lady Luo’s face turned shades of green and white. She clenched her teeth and, looking at Mo Han, said word by word, "You want me to apologize, aren’t you afraid of divine retribution?"

"So what if there’s divine retribution? Even if the sky falls, I’ll hold it up," Mo Han said with a faint smile. "Ning’er, have you sent me President Ling’s number?"

"You!"

Old Lady Luo was furious, but immediately calmed down upon hearing the rest of his remark.

She must not act rashly, she must not act rashly!

That day at the banquet, Ling Yuzhu’s attitude towards Luo Ning was like that of close sisters.

If the call really went through to Ling Yuzhu, the project in East City would fall through.

Then, not only would Luo Group be blacklisted and unable to cooperate, but all the invested capital would have been in vain. Given Luo Group’s current situation, it simply couldn’t withstand that.

Thinking of this, she glared fiercely at Mo Han, then walked over to Luo Ning, gritted her teeth, and said, "Ning’er, you have been wronged this time. Grandma apologizes to you!"

What?

Old Lady Luo apologized?

Even if her words were somewhat stiff, it was a genuine apology.

Yang Meifeng’s mouth hung open wide enough to fit an egg. Old Lady Luo had ruled over Luo Group with an iron fist for so many years, and with her strong personality, she had never apologized to anyone before.

This...

Luo Ning also felt dazed. After a two-second pause, she stepped forward, "Grandma..."

"I’ve already apologized, you old woman!" Old Lady Luo pushed Luo Ning away, speaking with an icy tone, "Please, President Luo, call President Wang and have the goods returned."

"Wait a minute."

Mo Han smiled faintly, his gaze fixed on Luo Yuantu, making it clear that he had not yet apologized.

With the family matriarch having conceded and apologized, Luo Yuantu knew that further resistance was futile. With a sigh, and still unwilling, he said, "Niece Ning’er, I’m sorry!"

Luo Ning nodded, her face resolute, "I accept!"

"You all go back. I’ll call President Wang in a bit and have him return the goods."

"Let’s hope there isn’t a next time..."

With that last statement, Luo Ning conveyed her deep resignation, merely hoping for the best.

"Very well! We’re leaving!"

Old Lady Luo snorted out of her nose, took her cane, and walked out without looking back.

Luo Yuantu and Luo Xuanran followed her out closely. As Luo Xuanran walked out the door, he turned his head, his eyes narrowing into slits. He had learned to be smart now, realizing that some harsh words were best left unsaid.

"A barking dog never bites, but a biting dog doesn’t bark..."

Watching the three leave, Luo Shanchuan murmured meaningfully.

Mo Han chuckled, "No matter what dog it is, if it dares to act up, just throw it in the pot!"
