Chapter 898: A Belated Apology

Jiang Yu was not a party to this, so she could not persuade Elder Mo to forgive the Xu family.

Jiang Yu understood the principle of “Don’t persuade others to be kind without going through their hardships.”.

She went upstairs and called Xu Ye to tell him about this.

When Xu Ye heard this, he was very disappointed. “Really? Elder Mo really said that?”

“Yes,” Jiang Yu replied.

“Is there really no room for negotiation? Jiang Yu, can you help me plead for mercy?” Xu Ye pleaded.

This was the first time Jiang Yu had seen Xu Ye lower himself so much. However, she could not make the decision on behalf of Elder Mo… Moreover, compared to asking for mercy from Elder Mo herself, it was far more practical for the people of the Xu family to ask for forgiveness.

Therefore, Jiang Yu said, “Xu Ye, I hope you can understand what it means to say, ‘Don’t try to persuade others to be kind without going through the suffering of others’. I’m not a party involved. I don’t know what the loss of money was like to the Mo family at that time. Therefore, I have no way to plead for you and ask grandfather to forgive the Xu family.”

“Is there really no way?” Xu Ye was anxious.

“If you really want to rely on the Mo family to restore the glory of the Xu family, then I suggest that the Xu family come and apologize in person.”

Xu Ye was silent for a moment before he slowly said, “I understand.”

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Yu thought that Xu Ye had retreated because of the difficulty. She didn’t expect that in just half an hour, Xu Ye would come with his father to apologize.

Elder Mo was still sitting in the living room playing with his dog. When he looked up and saw Xu Ye and father Xu, his expression changed instantly.

Jiang Yu stood to the side. She could not tell what Elder Mo’s expression meant.

It was as if he was impatient when he saw his blabbering neighbor, or as if he was surprised when he saw an old friend that he had not seen for many years.

The air remained silent. No one spoke first. In the end, it was Elder Mo who closed the ball into the cage and asked, “Are you the only ones here? Where’s Xu Wei?”

Father Xu replied softly, “He has terminal cancer and has pa.s.sed away.”

Elder Mo paused and looked a little at a loss.

He stood where he was and asked, “What brings you here today?”

Xu Ye was about to speak when Father Xu stopped him. He took out a bank card from his wallet and respectfully handed it to Elder Mo. “Uncle Mo, please accept this.”

Xu Ye was shocked. “Father!”

Father Xu Glared at him and reprimanded, “Shut up!”

Elder Mo looked at the bank card and asked in confusion, “What is this?”

Father Xu explained, “This is the money that my father caused the Mo family to lose back then. I converted it according to the bank’s interest and deposited the money that should be returned to you into this bank card. Please keep it. There’s no pa.s.sword.”

Elder Mo’s Adam’s apple moved up and down, and his throat was a little dry. “Why are you giving me this?”

Father Xu smiled bitterly. “I should have given it to you a long time ago, but it’s been delayed until now. If it wasn’t for this kid, Xu Ye, coming to find me today, I still wouldn’t know what this kid is planning. Don’t worry about him. He’s not mature yet.”

“Dad, What are you talking about?” Xu Ye was a little anxious. “Don’t you want to restore the glory of the Xu Family?”

“The glory of the Xu family was given by the Mo family.” Father Xu Sighed. “Your grandfather did something wrong. The Xu family deserves to be punished.”

“No matter what happened back then, it’s been so long. It should be settled, right?” Xu Ye was puzzled and his tone was very angry. “Why are you still clinging to this matter after so many years?”

“You don’t know what happened back then.” Father Xu could only tell Xu Ye this.

“Why don’t I know? I know…” Father Xu interrupted Xu Ye before he could finish.

“Can you be more obedient?!”

Xu Ye paused and immediately turned his face away. He was so angry that he didn’t speak anymore.

Elder Mo looked at the bank card for a long time, in the end, he pushed it back into father Xu’s arms. “Forget it, you can take it. The Xu family has nothing to do with the Mo family since long ago. As for the money that you owe, I didn’t ask the Xu family to return it back then, so I won’t ask you to return the money now.”

As he spoke, Elder Mo closed his eyes, as if he was unwilling to continue speaking.

Seeing this, father Xu didn’t decline. Instead, he pulled Xu Ye’s arm and left.

Xu Ye did not want to leave at first. It seemed like he wanted to reason with Elder Mo, but Father Xu’s att.i.tude was very firm. He did not allow Xu Ye to continue staying in the Mo family.

After they walked out of the door, Xu Ye asked in confusion, “Father, what’s wrong with you? How many years has pa.s.sed since this incident? Why do you have to return the money?”
