Shu Junhe jumped up immediately, and Bai Wanrou's face turned deathly pale with fright.
That's the Wang family of Kyoto. If Chu Mo really gets into trouble like that...
Even if her father intervened, he absolutely could not resolve the situation; the other party would never give up.
Shu Junhe paced back and forth anxiously, finally looking at Old Master Bai with a helpless expression and pleading:
"Dad, although Chu Mo is a bit of a scoundrel, he has ultimately done us a great service. Could you please step in and mediate for him?"
The old man looked at him, couldn't help but shake his head and laugh loudly:
"No need, this matter has been resolved. The person who helped him was Zhou Shouzhen!"
"What? Zhou, Old Zhou stepped in to solve this for him? What merit does he have?"
Shu Junhe was shocked by the news again, and Bai Wanrou was equally dumbfounded.
That person is the second most important figure in the Dragon Kingdom, truly second only to the emperor, so why would he help clean up this mess?
He committed a serious offense!
Killing the head of the Wang family, one of the six great families of the Dragon Kingdom, is an act that could be described as a catastrophe.
In Old Master Zhou's mind, Chu Mo was actually more important than the Wang family?
That's incredible!!
As Shu Junhe felt relieved, he looked at the old man with a wary expression and said firmly:
"Dad, although Chu Mo is very outstanding, it seems that he is also highly valued by Old Master Zhou. His future is absolutely limitless."
"But with his philandering ways, he's definitely not a good match for Xiaoya. I still think they're not suited to stay together."
Shu Junhe spoke resolutely. He had come here only to persuade the old man in person.
He really didn't want to escalate the already strained relationship and put his wife in a difficult position.
Old Master Bai immediately looked at him with a face full of disappointment and anger, pointing at him and scolding him angrily:
"In a large family like ours, it's not an unforgivable crime for young people to be a little flirtatious."
"The key is whether he has the ability to help the family prosper for a long time."
But Shu Junhe remained unmoved and instead patiently persuaded him:
"Dad, although Chu Mo is capable, I've only just realized that he's not only a womanizer, but also acts in an absurd and domineering way."
"You see, now he killed the head of the Wang family in a fit of anger. Even if there was a reason, it was still a bit impulsive."
"And on the way here, he told us he was some kind of cultivator, able to fly and disappear into the earth, and live for hundreds of years—that's utter nonsense!"
"How can I entrust Xiaoya to someone like that?"
Old Master Bai looked at him coldly and angrily reprimanded him:
"You're like a frog in a well, what do you know? People are telling you the truth, and you're just taking it as a story?"
Upon hearing this, Shu Junhe and his wife were immediately stunned.
Judging from the old man's words, he actually believed Chu Mo's words.
They seem to believe it wholeheartedly!
