The mother's concerns and instructions toward Lin Yan slightly softened Lu Chenyuan's expression.
"Do you have any explanation for what happened to Hehe? Chenyuan, you resorted to violence against a child. As an elder, don't you have even a little bit of tolerance? You beat the child to the point where his face is swollen and can't be touched. How much force did you actually use?"
Xu Qingli's tone was weak and pale, her face full of exhaustion.
Lu Chenyuan picked up a teacup and poured half a cup of tea.
"I wanted to talk to you about this. I don't think I did anything wrong. Lin Yan is my woman, and I must protect her. She's been wronged, and even if the other party is justified, I'll support her unconditionally. Moreover, you can clearly see today's incident: whether or not Hehe did it on purpose. Lin Yan has a good temper and didn't say anything, but that doesn't mean I can let it go. She's considering the bigger picture, but that doesn't mean she should suffer in silence."
