1091 Let Him Apologize On His Behalf
“I’m afraid that the Wu family’s financial situation isn’t good. If the Luo family were to pursue the matter, I wouldn’t end up well. Even the Wu family would be implicated. I thought that the Luo family couldn’t do anything to Cousin Haocheng, so I came up with this idea.”
Wu Jinghao grabbed Mother Lin’s hand and sobbed, “Auntie, I really know I’m wrong. I won’t do it again. They’re going to check the surveillance cameras now. If they find out, I’m finished. Auntie, help me.”
Mother Lin pulled Wu Jinghao up. “It’s okay, I will help you. This is not your fault. Lin Haocheng is your cousin. It’s his duty to help you.”
Wu Jinghao’s eyes lit up with hope again. “Thank you, Auntie.”
He thought of something and his eyes dimmed again. “But Uncle…”
“Don’t worry, your uncle is fine,” Mother Lin promised.
Hearing this, Wu Jinghao’s anxious heart was relieved. With Mother Lin helping him, there shouldn’t be any problems. After all, she had helped him settle many things.
It would be the same this time.
Wu Jinghao and Mother Lin returned to the hotel room.
Mother Lin came to Father Luo. “Chairman Luo, we have something to discuss. Can you give us some space?”
Father Luo frowned. As soon as Wu Wanrong came, she reprimanded Lin Haocheng, so she probably wouldn’t side with Lin Haocheng.
He nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll give you some time. However, if you dare to shirk your responsibility, the Luo family will pursue this matter to the end.”
“Yes, I will,” Mother Lin smiled apologetically.
After Father Luo left, Mother Lin looked at Qin Sheng and Fu Hanchuan and ordered, “You guys leave too.”
She always felt that Qin Sheng’s presence would be a hindrance to her.
Qin Sheng sat on the sofa and did not move.
Mother Lin was just about to reprimand Qin Sheng when Lin Haoyu spoke up. “Sheng Sheng is also a member of the Lin family. There’s no need for Sheng Sheng to avoid anything that has to do with the Lin family.”
Mrs. Lin was speechless. Father Luo didn’t give them much time and she didn’t want to waste it.
“Lin Haocheng,” she said directly, “you can directly apologize to the Luo family later.”
Qin Sheng glanced at Wu Jinghao when she heard that. She finally understood why Wu Jinghao had dragged Mother Lin out earlier.
Qin Sheng frowned and said, “Let’s wait for the surveillance cameras. If they show that it was indeed Second Brother who did it, Second Brother will take responsibility for it.”
Mother Lin glared at Qin Sheng, clearly opposing her.
Mother Lin suppressed the anger in her heart and said in a deep voice, “Lin Haocheng, you speak.”
Lin Haocheng lowered his eyes, his voice muffled. “I didn’t do this. Everything was done by Wu Jinghao. I stopped him and Wu Jinghao pushed all the blame on me.”
Normally, Lin Haocheng might directly admit his mistake. No one would stand on his side. Even his biological mother would not care about his wishes.
However, he did not want to disappoint Qin Sheng, who was so protective of him.
He had to fight for himself.
It was rare for Mother Lin to soften her voice when talking to Lin Haocheng. “Haocheng, Mom knows it’s not your fault, but Wu Jinghao is your brother. This matter has a very bad influence on him. You have to help him.”
Lin Haocheng’s eyes were very dark. “Mom, don’t you care about my reputation? I’m an actor. If this gets out, the entertainment media will hype it up and I’ll be attacked by the entire internet.”
Mother Lin sneered, “Isn’t it just an actor’s job? So what if it is lost? You have your brother to take care of you at home. Just the company’s annual dividends are enough for you to live without worry. But my brother only has one son, Hao’er. He is the hope of the Wu family. If something happens to him, what do you want the Wu family to do? You can’t just sit back and do nothing,” Mother Lin said matter-of-factly.
