Chapter 113: Apology

Chapter 113: Apology

Lu Hai was just there to watch the show.

Whether it's Bai Zhi or Wang Tingting, they are both insignificant people to him.

He only confessed to the facts.

After Lu Hai finished speaking, Bai Zhi finally understood the whole story.

She walked up to Wang Tingting and said sternly, "Wang Tingting, so it was you who spread rumors and slandered me, damaging my reputation."

Bai Zhi frowned and asked Old Master Lu, "Grandpa Lu, what did she tell you? Did you originally come here to catch them in the act of adultery?"

To be honest, Bai Zhi was very disappointed at this moment.

Grandpa Lu actually believed this woman's words and made the trip himself.

Old Master Lu explained, “Xiao Zhi, don’t misunderstand what Grandpa means. I never believed Wang Tingting’s words from the beginning. The reason I was willing to come with her is to come and clarify things for you in person, so that she won’t spread rumors outside.”

Old Master Lu looked at Bai Zhi with loving eyes and said, "I suspected from the beginning that you were with Lu Ye. Even if the person Wang Tingting saw was not Lu Ye, it should have been one of your new patients. I believe you are not a girl who does things recklessly."

"Thank you, Grandpa Lu, for believing in me."

“A person with a filthy heart sees everything as filthy.” Bai Zhi looked at Wang Tingting with a sharp expression. “You have caused me trouble several times, and I have been too lazy to bother with a boring person like you. Now you have gone even further and started to spread rumors, slander and defame me, damaging my reputation. Your behavior has already caused damage to my reputation, and I can sue you.”

Wang Tingting sneered, "What reputation damage? Aren't you with Lu Ye? It hasn't caused you any harm. Besides, you still have the nerve to mention reputation? Ha, shameless."

She's already seduced Lu Ye into doing *that* kind of thing, and this unsatisfied slut still complains that Lu Ye is weak.

How dare a woman like her claim to honors?

"Slap." A crisp slap sounded.

"How dare you hit me?" Wang Tingting covered her burning, painful face, looking at the arrogant and domineering woman in front of her in disbelief.

Bai Zhi shook her hand, her tone icy, "I hit you because I wanted to shut you up. This isn't over yet."

“I will absolutely not forgive your behavior today. I will report it to the police in a moment and let them handle it,” Bai Zhi said. “By the way, you also followed and stalked him, which is also illegal.”

Wang Tingting was hit and wanted to fight back, but Grandpa Lu protected Bai Zhi, and Lu Ye's sharp eyes shot at her like blades.

At this point, Bai Zhi said she would sue her.

She has some understanding of the law, and if Bai Zhi really persists in her accusations, her actions could indeed constitute a crime.

Especially since Bai Zhi also has the support of the Lu family.

Wang Tingting was startled.

They panicked.

She sniffed, covered her face, and pretended to be weak while crying. "Brother Lu Ye, I was just worried about you. I was afraid that Bai Zhi would hurt you, so I misunderstood her. If I'm wrong, I just meant well but did something wrong."

Is it really necessary to make such a big deal out of Angelica dahurica?

Lu Ye glanced at the woman whose face was rapidly swelling up with the same look he'd given her trash, then spoke softly to Bai Zhi.

"Xiaobai, remove the needle from my arm, let's go call the police."

"Hmm." Bai Zhi quickly began to remove the needles.

Wang Tingting was shocked and immediately forgot about crying. She grabbed Wang Shufen as her lifeline, "Auntie, please say something! I didn't do anything wrong. I was just worried and made a mistake. It didn't cause any real harm to Baizhi."

Wang Shufen was annoyed by her niece's crying. She frowned and said, "Tingting, you really went too far today."

This made her really believe that Bai Zhi was doing something shady outside, and she even seized the opportunity to teach her a lesson.

Who knew it was another misunderstanding?

Her niece is usually willful, which is one thing, but this time she made a solemn vow and a bet, and this is the result?

Given the current situation, there's nothing she can do.

But she was, after all, her own niece. And considering she herself had gone a bit too far earlier, Wang Shufen forced a smile and said, "Dad, Xiaoye, since it's all a misunderstanding, let's just let it go. Xiaoye isn't feeling well, so please don't get angry. It's best to be forgiving."

Wang Shufen's silence was fine, but as soon as she stepped forward, Lu Ye's attention fell on her. "Second Aunt, putting aside everyone else, apologize to Xiaobai."

"What?" Wang Shufen pointed to herself in disbelief. "You want me to apologize to a junior like her?"

"Xiao Ye, no matter what, I'm still your second aunt..."

"Apologize!" Lu Ye interrupted her forcefully, his face dark.

Wang Shufen would never condescend to apologize to a mere maid like Bai Zhi, especially since she looked down on and disliked her.

But Lu Ye's anger was truly terrifying.

Besides, she was in the wrong.

She then looked at her son, Lu Hai, "Xiao Hai."

"Mom, what you just said was really too much. You should apologize." Lu Hai shrugged, indicating that he couldn't help her.

They could have just come to watch the show, but his mother rushed to conclusions before the truth was out and even spoke harshly to Bai Zhi.

An apology is indeed warranted.

If you don't apologize, you'll be criticized and denounced.

Seeing her son's indifferent attitude, Wang Shufen was disappointed and angry. "Xiaohai, I'm your mother. How can you side with outsiders?"

"Mom, we should follow reason, not family."

Lu Hai leaned close to his mother and whispered in her ear, "My grandfather and my cousin are both angry. You did something wrong, so apologize quickly and let it go. Otherwise, when my dad comes back and finds out about this, he probably won't take you to Kyoto for treatment."

He had seen firsthand how much his father disliked his mother.

He believed his mother knew it too.

With no one to back her up and worried that Lu Shaoan would find out about this, Wang Shufen could only reluctantly look at Bai Zhi and say perfunctorily, "I'm sorry."

Bai Zhi ignored her.

Lu Ye's tone was heavy. "The wind is too strong, I can't hear you."

"I'm sorry!" Wang Shufen's swollen face was contorted, so she decided to go all out and shouted at the top of her lungs.
