Xue Yun looked up at her and hesitated for a while before saying, “Mom, can you help me persuade Xiao Huan?”
“With what?”
“Ling Feng has a collaboration case and wants to work with Bo Junyan, but Xiao Huan doesn’t agree…” Although Xiao Huan said that it wouldn’t be good for her to speak up when she got back, she still wanted the Ling family to do well. She didn’t just want an explanation. She knew that Mu Huan had always listened to her granny. Hence, she wanted to try it out with her.
Xue Hua frowned. “Why are you getting involved in the company’s matters?”
“I’m only doing this for Ling Xiao’s own good. Mom, you’ve seen how good your grandson is. Besides, we’re a family now, and the Ling family has always worked with the Bo family before. It’s not a big deal for them to work with one another again. Isn’t this a small matter? I don’t know why Xiao Huan wouldn’t agree.” Xue Yun’s tone had a hint of irreconcilable grievance.
It was as if Mu Huan was making things difficult for her.
In the past, the Bo and Ling families had always worked together, and they didn’t need any conditions to do so. But now, though she was her biological mother, she couldn’t make Mu Huan agree. This made her…
She herself felt she was useless, let alone her husband.
“There’s naturally a reason why Xiao Huan wouldn’t agree.” Xue Hua knew her granddaughter well. Although she didn’t know what they were, she believed that she had her reasons.
“She thinks that Ling Wei wants to snatch Bo Junyan, but Ling Wei is already someone who’s about to get married. Besides, if Bo Junyan liked Xiao Huan, he wouldn’t be snatched away.” Although Xue Yun knew that Ling Wei’s marriage was a fake marriage, if things went well, the fake could become real!
Besides, Bo Junyan didn’t like Ling Wei. It was useless no matter how much she wanted to snatch him. There was no need to be overly cautious.
“That’s where you’re wrong. If others want to snatch something from you, how can you not be on guard? There’s no cat in this world that doesn’t eat fish. If someone is eyeing your man and you’re not on guard, a man may be able to withstand an attack once, twice, or even a hundred times. But what if he loses at the 101st attack?
“Really, which woman shouldn’t worry that someone wants to steal her husband? To think that you’re Xiao Huan’s biological mother! How can you think that way?!” Xue Hua chided.
“All these years, you didn’t stay by her side to take care of her. Instead, you made her perform filial piety in your stead for so many years and take care of an old hag like me. You’ve already let her down. Why are you still not thinking for her? Instead, you’re wholeheartedly thinking about what would benefit the Ling family!
“Even if you have a son now, Xiao Huan is still your biological daughter. She used to be the apple of your eye! You can’t be too biased and hurt her!”
Xue Yun: “…”
Initially, she’d wanted her mother to help her convince Xiao Huan, but she did not expect her to give her such a harsh scolding.
“Mom, I know I’ve let Xiao Huan down, but…” After hesitating for a while, she continued, “But I can’t disregard my current husband and child. Besides, this is really nothing difficult. It’s just a small matter…”
“If it’s really a small matter and it’s not difficult, why would Xiao Huan reject you, her biological mother whom she had finally found after so much difficulty?!”
Xue Yun: “…”
“Don’t think too much about the Ling family and let your imagination run wild!” If a person’s heart was biased, they would think too much.
“Let me tell you, you just have to treat Xiao Huan well from now on. Don’t think about anything else! Just don’t!” Xue Hua said sternly.
