Chapter 443: An Apology

The disparity between Mrs. Rong Sr.'s previous and current attitudes was so astonishing it left people speechless. Lu Chengzhou nearly burst into laughter from the sheer absurdity.

"Y-y-yes, it was just an angry outburst from an elderly lady like me," Mrs. Rong Sr. stammered.

Ye Nanshen's lips twitched into a faint smile. His handsome face was adorned with a grin that didn't quite match his eyes, sending shivers down one's spine. "I can let it slip," he said.

Before laying a finger on her, think about how many lives you have for me to take in return."
