Huo Yajie lowered her head even further, her hands clasped together, unsure of what to say.

Goro spoke up for Huo Yajie in a low voice: "Uncle, don't be so angry. Yajie has already apologized."

"But what can she do? She's Huo Minglang and Wang's daughter."

"But this isn't something my young lady can choose," Qiu Xing said angrily, defending Huo Yajie. "I've already explained it, so why are you so angry? My young lady didn't intentionally try to deceive you."

Why are you so unforgiving even when you're in the right?

Huo Yajie tugged at Qiu Xing's sleeve, signaling her to stop talking.

"Miss, don't always be so weak and limp, everyone will bully you!" Qiu Xing was so disappointed in her daughter that the little tuft of hair on her head started to shake.

She's so angry!

Brother Wu was so angry he laughed: "Did I bully you guys?"

"Then why are you being so aggressive and yelling at us? You can't even explain yourself. Aren't you just bullying us?"

"Me, so arrogant? Just think about all the disgusting things Huo Minglang and the Wang family have done..."

"Xiao Wu!"

Aunt Chi scolded.

The more they talk, the more unbelievable it gets.

No matter what, they are Huo Yajie's parents. What is it like to insult someone's parents in front of them?

Brother Wu angrily turned his head away.

"Did my parents do something to hurt you before? I apologize on their behalf..."

Huo Yajie blinked her big eyes, then bowed and apologized.

Then she looked up, her eyes filled with a smile: "So that's why."

She said it herself.

Fortunately, the Chi family wasn't angry with her because of her.
