"Offering an apology with a birch branch?"
Lin Mu took the birch branch from Luo Jinping's hand, a cryptic expression crossing his face.
Surprise showed on everyone's faces. Would Lin Mu really beat Luo Jinping? He surely wouldn't dare!
After all, the Luo Family was a major power, and Luo Jinping was Luo Huai'an's only grandson. If Lin Mu were to strike him, the Luo Family might not say anything publicly, but they would certainly hold a grudge in private.
But if he didn't, Luo Huai'an's plan would succeed. After all, they had come to offer the apology with the birch branch. The failure to act would fall on Lin Mu, a sign of his cowardice. In that case, not only Lin Mu but the entire Qin Family would lose face.
"Lin Mu, since Elder Master Luo has come in person to apologize, why not just let it go?" Qin Hongshu said. He was well aware of Luo Huai'an's intention; speaking up now wasn't for Lin Mu's sake, but for the Qin Family's.
