When Mu Qingtong said this, his face was so cold that he didn't even have the slightest expression.

Darcy was scared.

Her fear of her sister was engraved in her bones, and when she looked at her like this, she trembled for no reason.

"Sister, I was wrong!"

Darcy 100% believed that if she refused to admit her mistake at this point, her sister might really destroy her knees.

Mu Qingtong looked at her with lowered eyes. Although she looked obedient, she gave people a feeling of arrogance and disobedience.

After all, is it because I have never suffered any grievances since I was a child, and now I am being punished to kneel in the ancestral hall, not only cheating and cheating, but also complaining first?

Seeing that Darcy was willing to admit her mistake, Mr. Mu was particularly pleased.

"Qingtong, you see that Daqian has admitted her mistake obediently, which means she can still be saved. You see that she is still young and has not experienced hardship, so she will inevitably be pampered, so forgive her."

Seeing that the old man had opened his mouth, the old lady nodded desperately.

She was also a little afraid of her eldest granddaughter. She obviously wanted to go forward and hug her little granddaughter Darcy to see if she was hungry or cold, but because of her eldest granddaughter's attitude, she did not dare to move.

Mrs. Mu also looked at Mu Qingtong expectantly.

"Grandpa, the girl who was bullied by Darcy was younger. Darcy is a big girl in her twenties. Age cannot be used as an excuse to shirk responsibility."

Mu Qingtong continued to look at Daqian.

"You didn't kneel properly for even half an hour all night, so you didn't sincerely admit your mistake. Now that I'm here, it's up to you to decide what to do."

Darcy pouted.

"Sister, I listened to your words and had a fight with Chu Lingxiu yesterday. I lost the fight and lost all my face. What do you want to do to let me go?"

Mu Qingtong explained calmly, "I asked you to fight Chu Lingxiu yesterday to show Lu Jinnan. If he hadn't seen that you were beaten a bit badly, he wouldn't have stopped easily."

"Also, I talked about so many truths yesterday, but you only remember that you are embarrassed? Did you not listen to any other words?"

"Otherwise, what do you want from me?" Darcy yelled impatiently as she was cold, hungry, sleepy, and a little impetuous after not having a good rest all night.

"Chu Lingxiu stole my man and openly beat my friend. Is it wrong for me to fight back? I'm not wrong!"

Mu Qingtong glanced at Chu Lingxiu coldly, watched her eyes quietly, and finally gave a faint "tsk" before turning around and walking out, "Whatever you think is fine."

As soon as Mu Qingtong finished speaking, he disappeared outside the gate of the ancestral hall.

As soon as she left, the old lady and Mrs. Mu breathed a sigh of relief and hurried forward to check on Darcy's body.

The old lady shouted "darling" and "darling" as she went to arrange the kitchen to prepare delicious food for the second young lady.

Darcy came out surrounded by several elders, and she didn't look like she had just been punished.

In the living room, Mu Qingtong, who was sitting on the sofa, put down the book in his hand and commented with a strange smile: "It looks like a general returning in triumph."

Seeing her sister still sitting in the living room, the smile on Darcy's face froze. Thinking of how she dared to contradict her sister just now, she instantly felt that her life would be difficult in the future.

"Sister, I'm sorry."

Mu Qingtong was a little surprised, "Do you think you were wrong?"

"Well, I was wrong." Darcy lowered her head, looking honest this time.

"What's wrong?"

Darcy lowered her head and whispered: "I shouldn't contradict you."

Mu Qingtong said: "The reason why you think it's wrong to contradict me is because my family status is higher than yours and I can control many things about you. But when it comes to Chu Lingxiu's incident, you always think that you are not wrong."

"In the final analysis, it's just because Chu Lingxiu doesn't have a rich background. A child from a poor family can't do anything to you, so you think she deserves to be bullied by you?"

Darcy kept her mouth shut tightly to prevent herself from shouting out the words "She deserves it if she is poor."

But Mu Qingtong knew his sister very well and knew what she was thinking.

She suddenly felt tired and didn't want to care about anything anymore, so she stood up lazily.

"I made an appointment with friends for lunch, so I won't come back to eat."

The old man wanted to save a few words.

But in the end, Mu Qingtong left without looking back.

Darcy hugged her grandfather's arm and said, "Grandpa, I'm still angry. It's good to go out and calm down."

"You also know that she is angry!" Mr. Mu glared at Darcy angrily, "I asked you to kneel down in the ancestral hall, and you just lay down on the floor? Do you know that your sister's current attitude is... I don’t plan to care about you anymore!”

Darcy felt nothing after hearing this.

If no one cares about her, no one will scold her after she does bad things when she comes home.

Then she was so happy!

"Don't be too happy too soon!" The old man nodded her head. "Do you know that every time you got into trouble in the past, your sister silently cleaned up the mess behind you?"

"Your sister doesn't care now. It's your responsibility to clean up the mess after everything is done."

The thing is, if Darcy could clean up the mess, she wouldn't be afraid of her sister becoming like this.

"You can clean it up yourself!" Darcy was heartless and happily finished breakfast with her family. No one mentioned Mu Qingtong again during the process.

At this time, Mu Qingtong was making an appointment with Lu Jinnan to have lunch.

The two met at the appointed place.

Mu Qingtong suddenly asked: "Where is that girl Lingxiu? Ask her to come over for a meal. I want to apologize to her alone."

Lu Jinnan said: "I'll call and ask."

When the call was connected, Chu Lingxiu had already arrived at Lu Yuze's company and was making coffee.

"Eating?" Chu Lingxiu's voice also sounded a bit busy, "I may not have time today. I'm sorry to disappoint you."

When she doesn't have classes, she comes here part-time and is really busy.

Lu Jinnan's tone was normal, "It doesn't matter, we can make an appointment another day."

Chu Lingxiu hung up the phone with some regret.

This was the first time Lu Jinnan invited her to dinner, so he just missed it?

Chu Lingxiu was a little uneasy after hanging up the phone. She didn't even notice that the cup of coffee was filled. Finally, she was summoned by a knock on the door.

Lu Yu had anger on his face, "Lingxiu, did Darcy get someone to cause trouble for you yesterday? Why didn't you tell me?"

Chu Lingxiu came to her senses in an instant and realized that the coffee was full and spilled all over the table. She quickly took out a paper towel and wiped it clean.

Seeing her fussing around, Lu Yuze looked at her strangely.

"Lingxiu, why are you so absorbed in your thoughts?"

Are you distracted like this?

Chu Lingxiu said while clearing the table: "What happened yesterday is not a big problem, so I don't think it is necessary to tell you, lest you become unhappy too."

Lu Yu stared at her absent-minded look and felt his throat was blocked.

He tugged on his tie and said angrily: "This kind of thing is all because of me. You should tell me as soon as possible in the future."

Instead of asking Lu Jinnan to pick her up.

Chu Lingxiu handed over the brewed coffee.

"Don't be angry, boss. Let's have a cup of coffee to refresh ourselves."

This woman is simply heartless!

Lu Yu was even more unhappy. He took the coffee cup without saying a word, turned around and left.

But it turned back in less than 30 seconds.

"Chu Lingxiu, do you particularly like Lu Jinnan?"
