"Mrs. Hua."
Lin Xiao shook his head, "I know you care deeply for your son, so I'll explain clearly what's really going on."
Mrs. Hua was getting on in years, and Lin Xiao considered himself a well-mannered young man who respected elders and cherished the young, so he tried to keep his tone from sounding too aggressive.
"Regarding your son's so-called life savings, Mrs. Hua, do you know where it came from?"
"Of course, it's what he painstakingly earned over the years!"
Mrs. Hua replied as a matter of course.
"Keep your voice down, don't let others make a spectacle of us." Old Master Luo coughed, and upon hearing her words, he knew exactly what these so-called life savings were. He tried to restrain his wife.
However, Mrs. Hua clearly didn't understand Old Master Luo's perspective. She thought he was simply siding with Lin Xiao and didn't understand why he had such an attitude. "What's wrong with you? Are you going to let an outsider like him step all over your son? What kind of attitude is that?! Is Luo Buwei not your own son?!"
"Mom, don't get agitated," Luo Buyu said quickly from the side. His biological mother had passed away years ago, and he had always relied on him, so he called Mrs. Hua 'Mom' as well.
"You, shut up."
Mrs. Hua clearly wasn't listening to them, and she pointed at Luo Buyu, scolding him.
"Don't waste your breath on her."
Li Xin pulled her husband's arm, "You've only just recovered a few days ago, don't get angry. It won't be good for your health if you upset yourself."
"Sigh."
Luo Buyu sighed deeply. He didn't want to see only the sound of arguments at home, even now.
"Mrs. Hua, it's like this," Lin Xiao continued to speak gently, his temper remarkably good at this moment. "What Luo Buwei has in his hands, these so-called hard-earned savings, his life's savings, are actually embezzled from the company... directly from our Luo family's company, which has led to a shortage of company funds."
"What nonsense are you spouting?! Does my son need to do that! He's done so much for the company all these years..."
"Done how much? Mrs. Hua, do you know?"
Lin Xiao retorted.
"I..."
Lin Xiao took out his phone and displayed all the evidence of Luo Buwei's embezzlement. "Here is every penny he has secretly pocketed over the years, a sum far exceeding ten million. I merely helped Qinghan retrieve the over ten million from his hands. That's all. This money originally belonged to the company."
"You... you're faking this! It's all fabricated! If he was really up to something, why didn't anyone say anything two years ago? Why is it an outsider like you speaking up now?" Mrs. Hua clearly didn't believe it. She thought Lin Xiao was trying to ruin the Luo family!
"Well, Mrs. Hua, why don't you ask the Old Master then?"
Lin Xiao felt a sense of exasperation. Mrs. Hua was not only old but also senile.
Upon hearing Lin Xiao's words, Mrs. Hua's expression shifted, and she immediately turned to Old Master Luo. "You're not helping this outsider trick me, are you? Elder son hasn't done these things all these years, right?"
As she spoke, her face clearly twitched, and her hand pressed on the table, her fingertips tapping lightly.
Hearing her question, Old Master Luo sighed and shook his head, "Buwei... he's made a fool of himself!"
