After saying farewell to Pei Zhan, Fu Zhen returned directly to the mansion.
Mrs. Ning had surprisingly already returned and was sitting in the room, fuming. As soon as she saw Fu Zhen walk in, she said, "This Third Madam Du is really unreliable. We had already agreed on the matter, but she went back on her word!"
Fu Zhen was taken aback: "She refuses to reconcile?"
"Not that," Mrs. Ning replied, "Contrary to my expectations, the Du Family was very easy to deal with on this matter. I stated our intention, your father apologized, made amends, and brought Mrs. Liu inside, and they did not make things difficult for us. Since they didn't want to make a big deal out of it, they didn't send Mrs. Liu to prison. After reprimanding Mrs. Liu, they discussed compensation with your father."
"If not that, then what is it?"
"The annulment of the engagement!"
