Even though Mrs. Sun noticed that Mrs. Lu looked somewhat skeptical and hesitant, she continued, "I'm telling the truth! Both families almost got engaged, but then there was a severe campus violence incident. Due to the intense public backlash, the Zhou family couldn't make it in Hai City and returned to Lin City!"

As she spoke, Mrs. Lu recalled the gossip that circulated when the Zhou family had first returned to Lin City. Most of it implied that Zhou Liang had been driven out of Hai City and had no choice but to return to Lin City.

Mrs. Lu had heard some of this but didn't care much about whether the Zhou family's business had failed or succeeded.

The Lu family's current status was not solely built upon business mergers. She simply wanted a daughter-in-law with a clear background.
