As soon as Xu Ai came back, Liu Zheng's phone hadn't stopped ringing. Xu Jun invited them to have dinner together, bringing Xu Xiaoshu along. He said the Yuan Family also wanted to interact more with them, but Liu Zheng mentioned several times that Xu Ai didn't want to go. Xu Jun, however, was relentless.
"President Xu, I can't make the decision on this. Xiao Ai just got back, she has to work tomorrow, and Xiaoshu has school as well. There's not much time. If you want to see Xiao Ai and Xiaoshu, you can call Xiao Ai directly; you have her number," Liu Zheng said. He was not about to be tricked into playing the role of mediator.
"I know, I'm just trying to gauge your stance. Fenglian also acknowledges her past mistakes. Could you talk to Xiao Ai, see what she means, and if she is willing to forgive us?"
Liu Zheng said, "The hurt that's persisted for so long can't be explained away in a few words. You need to give Xiao Ai some time; don't push her too hard."
