Chapter 394 - Manipulation Not Wrong (2/2)

However, that child, Xia Ruoxin, didn't seem like a bad person so how could she be pestering Ah Lui?

Song Wan wasn't a woman with no brains and would set other's sins in stone with just a few words. She had her own opinions and thoughts so Li Manni also stopped then. It was just that her wry smile looked forced, making Song Wan feel bad and uneasy.

When she left Chu Lui's little villa, Song Wan went to look for Chu Jiang. The words spilled from her mouth like beans as she told Chu Jiang the situation. Chu Jiang listened with a frown, his brows knitting together.

”Do you think Ah Lui…?”

Song Wan was worried about her son. He was so stubborn that it scared her sometimes, and he was also too ruthless at times—without leaving himself a way out. If he wasn't so merciless at that time, things wouldn't have become this way now where he had involved himself with an innocent child who bore through his unnecessary revenge. When he was done with revenge, he found out that he didn't need it in the first place. It wasn't an act, and there were no scenes they could replay. What was done was done. They couldn't go back anymore.

She was really scared that her son's heart would waver again, and he would cause a huge fuss yet again.

Their lives were just getting better, and they couldn't stand anymore of this mess.

”Don't you understand him well?” Chu Jiang harrumphed. ”Bold, merciless, calculative. And now look what he got himself into. He's to blame.”

”But I'm worried about Manni. She's in a low mood, and it's going to cause our grandchild grievance.” Song Wan was only worried about her grandchild.

”Don't worry. Our daughter-in-law won't let herself be treated wrongfully, much less say let anything happen to the baby.” Chu Jiang comforted his wife. His eyes were comparable to Chu Lui's, and they were filled with maturity and knew the ways of the world.

Song Wan might not be able to tell Li Manni's true intentions, but Chu Jiang was very clear that Li Manni was using Song Wan as a pawn. He didn't expose her, for these problems were all caused by their son. They had to take most of the responsibility somehow.

Also, Li Manni wasn't that manipulative. If she had manipulated even Song Wan, he wouldn't let her off so easily, much less say Chu Lui.

He believed it was better to keep harmony within the family. He didn't want his son to go through another divorce, no matter what. Neither he nor the Chu family could afford to lose this face.

Song Wan mulled over it for a few days before deciding to meet Xia Ruoxin. She just wanted to confirm with her own eyes whether Xia Ruoxin was still the same or if she had changed. It didn't matter what she thought… as long as she stopped disrupting the peace of their family.
