Billionaire's Long Journey of Chasing His Love-Chapter 344 - 308: Blood Type O (First Update)_2

Ni Lu kept repeating the same sentence, her state already teetering on the edge of a breakdown.

Yi Luowa looked at Ni Lu with a pained expression, forcefully twitching her hand.

Tong Airui immediately tightened his grip on her hand, gently shook his head, signaling her not to intervene—he had no intention of meddling in this mess today.

Yi Luowa said anxiously, "Honey, Aunt Ni Lu is acting a bit unusual. Let me go comfort her."

Tong Airui glanced at Ni Lu, hesitating on whether to let her go, but Tong Yao had already stepped forward.

Tong Yao forcefully pulled Ni Lu aside and embraced her, gently comforting her, "Ni Lu, calm down. We’ll figure out this matter together."

"Let her die—you either let her die, or I’ll die!" Ni Lu struggled in Tong Yao’s arms.

Shi Qing shot Ni Lu a sideways glare. "Let go of me! I’ll kill myself right in front of her!" Shi Qing roared as she bit down hard on Jack’s hand.

Jack, enduring the intense pain, shouted, "Are you two not ashamed? If you want to die, go home and die! Don’t disgrace the palace!"

"Let’s all talk this out properly." Bernard, who had been listening outside for a while, stepped in. "I might have a solution—it could save everyone’s dignity."

"Brother-in-law, what’s your idea? Hurry and tell us!" Carlos said urgently.

"This plan will require everyone’s cooperation. If even one disagrees, then pretend I didn’t suggest it." Bernard finished speaking, his gaze landing on Royce’s face.

Royce glanced at him. "Say whatever you have to say. Given what’s happened today, Bert bears a significant part of the responsibility."

Long Che narrowed his eyes slightly. "Sister-in-law, Bernard’s suggestion likely doesn’t involve money but rather people. Make sure you’ve thought it through."

Royce froze briefly. Could Bernard possibly suggest that Bert should marry Shi Qing? Absolutely not. Taking in someone like her would only throw the household into chaos.

Leon arrived, holding a phone. He handed it to his mother, saying, "Mom, it’s Dad on the line."

Royce took the phone and stepped into the inner room. She hadn’t entered before, but now, upon entering, she was startled—the floor was littered with torn clothes, the bedspread was in disarray.

Blood!

On the pristine bed linen were a few drops of bright red blood.

Royce’s hand holding the phone trembled uncontrollably. "Muta... Bert, he..."

"I know everything." Muta’s voice carried suppressed anger. "Bernard just discussed it with me—things have come to this point. Follow what he said and let Bert marry Shi Qing."

"Muta! Are you out of your mind? At least ask for my opinion and our son’s first!" Royce lowered her voice. "Do you have any idea what kind of person she is? If she comes into this family, do you think we’ll have any peace?"

"Then what do you want to do? Huh?" Muta’s voice shot up several pitches. "If we don’t handle it this way, how do you expect me to face Carlos and Ni Lu in the future?"

"You..."

"Don’t give me any excuses! If you can’t resolve this, then have Leon come home immediately. I’ll deal with it myself. Tong Airui’s engagement caused a stir, Ai Ni’s wedding brought another drama, and now, this spectacle overseas! How do you expect Long Che and Tong Yao to view us? Idiots might even think we’re deliberately trying to make their life miserable!"

Royce’s tears fell one after the other.

Muta paused, then continued, "I’m not blaming you for everything, but let’s be clear, this is your fault. You couldn’t control your son, and your son couldn’t control himself. So, any consequences today are entirely the result of your choices as a mother!"

"Muta, how could you say something so cruel?" Royce was trembling with rage.

Muta sighed. "I didn’t mean to upset you. Anyone involved would feel distressed. When I got Bernard’s call, I nearly exploded. Shi Qing is full of problems, but she’s still young. You can teach her to grow up. Jack and Ni Lu are kind-hearted, so Shi Qing won’t stay like this forever. All these issues are because Ni Lu spoiled her rotten."

Royce turned around and pulled Bert in, speaking into the phone, "I’m done with this! Talk to your son yourself. If he agrees, I won’t stand in the way. But I’ll say this—if she moves in, I’ll move out!"

Bert had just grabbed the phone his mother shoved into his hand when Muta’s angry voice blared through the receiver. Bert pressed his lips together tightly, silently listening.

The matter between Shi Qing and Bert dragged on until midnight. Finally, it was resolved. Bert agreed to marry Shi Qing, and Shi Qing didn’t refuse the proposal.
