After a moment of silence!

Mu Shaohua's lips curled into a sneer as she coldly said, "Miss Su, feelings cannot be compared. Each child is precious to him. Moreover, I believe Lu Qingzhou is a fair person, and he will treat both children equally."

"Fairness? Hmph, where in this world is there true fairness?"

Su Yao became somewhat agitated.

"Do you think I would give up so easily? I won't! I will fight for the happiness that belongs to me and Zhouzhou."

Mu Shaohua retorted, "I won't back down either. Momo and Xiao Lu are equally important people in my life. I won't give him to you, and you can't push me out either."

The two exchanged a glance, snorted angrily, and simultaneously turned their heads away!

After the second encounter,

The two fell silent again!

After a while,

Su Qingyao bit her lip and took a deep breath: "I don't want to argue with you about these useless things. The key now is his attitude, who he chooses, that's the most important thing."

Mu Shaohua tilted her head slightly, revealing a confident smile: "I believe that without you stirring up trouble, Xiao Lu would make the right choice. However, even if he hasn't made a clear statement, I don't intend to back down easily. Momo needs her father, and I will fight for her to the end."

"You...you're the one stirring up trouble..."

"Then you're just a pile of shit in the outhouse!"

Su Qingyao turned pale with anger, "You..."

Her fingers unconsciously tightened around the hem of her dress. "You're being selfish! You only think about your own feelings and Momo's needs. Have you ever thought about Zhouzhou's feelings? She needs a father by her side too!"

"So what?" Mu Shaohua's voice suddenly rose.

“Zhouzhou has you, and her grandparents. But Momo only has me. I can’t let her lose her father’s love; it’s my responsibility as a mother!”

The sounds of their argument echoed in the courtyard.

Just as the atmosphere was becoming increasingly tense,

Su Qingyao suddenly stood up, a resolute glint in her eyes: "Since you refuse to back down, then let's go through legal proceedings."

"Go through legal procedures? Are you out of your mind?!" Mu Shaohua was speechless. This woman was insane; how could she say something so outrageous!

The two men raised their voices higher and higher, neither willing to back down.

A gentle breeze blew by, and the flowers in the yard trembled slightly, as if they too were uneasy about this fierce confrontation.

Mu Shaohua took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down: "This arguing can't go on. We have to find a solution. How about... we take turns living with Xiao Lu?"

Su Qingyao frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "Take turns? What's the point of that? Lu Qingzhou isn't an object. I think it's better for each of us to take our children and leave, let him decide for himself, and come back to us in a year to see who he chooses."

Mu Shaohua bit her lip, weighing the pros and cons in her mind.

For a moment, the courtyard fell silent, with only the rustling of leaves in the breeze.

A moment later,

Mu Shaohua analyzed, "Xiao Lu is indeed too greedy. He wants both, which is unfair to us. What does he take us for? She gave us the choice and allowed him to have his way."

Seeing Mu Shaohua speaking so passionately, Su Qingyao was somewhat infected by his emotions and subconsciously asked, "So what should we do now?"

Mu Shaohua said seriously, "Leave the child to him. It's his offspring anyway, so don't worry! We'll just disappear now, and no one is allowed to contact him first. Let him worry. He can be with whoever he finds first, and the other one can back out!"

Su Qingyao frowned in thought, staring at Mu Shaohua, "Are you sure you want to do this? You're not trying to play some dirty trick on me, are you?"

Mu Shaohua snorted coldly, "Hmph, I wouldn't stoop to doing that!"

After a moment's hesitation, Su Qingyao said with a hint of determination, "Okay, we'll do it your way."

A sly glint flashed in Mu Shaohua's eyes. "Then what are you waiting for? Let's go now!"

"Aren't you going in to talk to them?"

"What else is there to say? This is how you find out who he truly loves!"

"Let's go then."

Let's go!

The two watched each other as they slowly walked out of the courtyard.

"Whoever turns back is a jerk..."

Su Qingyao glared at Mu Shaohua beside her and said fiercely.

"To...a despicable person..."

Mu Shaohua breathed out two breaths.

He glanced at the fork in the road ahead and said, "There's no turning back, you go left, I'll go right!"

"good!"

The two walked in opposite directions!

They each walked about thirty meters away.

Mu Shaohua suddenly stopped walking!

Even in the dim light, you could still see each other's backs!

Su Qingyao glanced back and saw Mu Shaohua standing there without moving! Her heart tightened immediately, and she scolded, "Why aren't you leaving!"

Upon hearing this, Mu Shaohua's lips curled up slightly. "Um... my shoelaces came undone, I'm tying them!"

Su Qingyao was skeptical, and turned around.

Tying shoelaces?

Where did Mu Shaohua get the shoelaces from?

"Oh no, we've been scammed!"

Su Qingyao exclaimed in surprise and quickly turned around.

Mu Shaohua had already run almost to the entrance of the courtyard!

Su Qingyao's face immediately darkened.

He quickly caught up with her, bursting into a tirade of curses, "You fucking tricked me!"

Mu Shaohua retorted angrily without turning her head.

"You son of a bitch, I'll scheme against you, what can you do about it?"

Su Qingyao gritted her teeth, "You bitch! You're treacherous, despicable, and shameless!"

Mu Shaohua poked her head out from the courtyard gate, "You're the one who's a slut..."

He then dashed into the house in a flash!

Su Qingyao almost vomited blood; this woman was utterly shameless!

that's all,

The negotiations ultimately failed in this way!

...

Ta-da-ta-da...

A series of hurried footsteps went from indistinct to clear!

Lu Qingzhou and Leng Yue looked in the direction of the sound.

Mu Shaohua rushed into the living room and finally sat down next to Lu Qingzhou, panting, and hugged his arm tightly.

Looking at Mu Shaohua's breathless appearance...

Lu Qingzhou and Leng Yue looked at each other, completely bewildered!

I wonder what the final outcome of their negotiations was?

Lu Qingzhou cautiously probed, "You... have reached a consensus?"

Mu Shaohua took a breath, nodded solemnly, and said with a firm look in her eyes, "Yes, we have already discussed it. She has chosen to withdraw, and you will be with me from now on!"

"ah?"

"What?" Lu Qingzhou and Leng Yue exclaimed in surprise at the same time!

How could this be the result!

Holy crap, how is this possible!

Damn, I don't believe it!

Before the two could recover from their shock, an angry roar came from outside the door: "Go to hell... stop talking nonsense!"

Everyone: "..."

This is clearly a breakdown in negotiations! And they're getting angry.
