Chapter 86 Provoking Mommy Leads to Kneeling on a Washboard

Huo Tingdong stood up, walked to the door, then suddenly seemed to think of something, slightly sidestepped, and spoke indifferently: "I can let this matter go without holding you responsible, as long as you apologize. I can pretend nothing happened."

Lin Qi, upon hearing this, froze, "Apologize?"

She was stunned for a moment, then immediately flipped off the bed, glaring at his back, furrowed her brows and asked, "Apologize to whom? To Song Shuyan?"

Huo Tingdong said, "You hit her, shouldn't you apologize? That's basic human decency."

Lin Qi retorted angrily, "I don't need you to teach me how to conduct myself! I will not apologize. To apologize to someone like her, that's impossible!"

"That kind of person?" Huo Tingdong challenged, "'That kind of person'—what do you mean by that?"

It was clear; he seemed to be getting angry.

Lin Qi knew that Song Shuyan held a special place in his heart and that he wouldn't tolerate any slander against her.
