Reborn in the 80s and Remarrying an Officer, Let the Ungrateful Cry!

Song Yan couldn’t bear to see the woman he loved suffer like this.

He immediately lost his composure and yelled, ”Fu Mingxue, don’t push it!”

Fu Mingxue’s voice was cold and severe. ”Since he feels so bad for them and they’re unwilling, then let’s just settle this legally. After all, some people are better off being reformed. Otherwise, who knows who their next victim will be.”

”They’re the ones who made the mistake, yet they have the audacity to turn around and say the victim is being unreasonable. It’s a complete perversion of justice.”

Tang Qiang said, ”In that case, then—”

Before he could finish, Song Yan cut in, his teeth clenched, ”Fine. I’ll agree on their behalf.”

Fu Mingxue sneered. ”Hah, you’ll agree on their behalf? If they go back on their word, am I supposed to go to their house and force them? You might have all the time in the world, but I have no time to waste on you.”

”If we’re going to settle this, then bring them in,” Tang Qiang said, sending a colleague to get them.

In less than two minutes, Bai Siqi and her mother were brought in.

Mrs. Fu came in with them.

She walked over to her daughter and whispered, ”Honey, what’s the plan?”

Fu Mingxue stated plainly, ”This Comrade Song is willing to pay eight hundred yuan in compensation on behalf of Bai Siqi and her mother. He’s also agreed that they will come to our house today and apologize out loud three times—stating that they were wrong to steal my university acceptance letter.”

Mrs. Fu: ...How much? Eight hundred?

Good heavens, a settlement like this was more than acceptable.

Especially since it also forced them to apologize.

”What? Apologize? I won’t do it—” The very thought of it was deeply humiliating for Mrs. Bai.

’Wouldn’t that mean everyone would find out about this?’

’How could she ever show her face in the neighborhood again? Her reputation would be ruined.’

’And it wasn’t enough for just her to apologize, they actually wanted her daughter, Siqi, to do it too—that was absolutely out of the question.’

Bai Siqi, of course, was just as shocked. ’Pay eight hundred yuan *and* we have to apologize in public?’

’This is impossible. Absolutely impossible.’

In that moment, mother and daughter were in perfect agreement.

Fu Mingxue wasn’t surprised. She didn’t even spare the mother-daughter duo a glance.

She spoke directly to Tang Qiang. ”Comrade, you see? They’re completely unrepentant. In that case, just sentence them as you see fit. Also, as mother and daughter, they’re immediate relatives. Their testimony is not credible. I am determined to press charges against the person who took my acceptance letter.”

When Bai Siqi and her mother saw the officer about to nod in agreement, the color drained from their faces once more.

Seeing this, Song Yan hurriedly tried to persuade them. ”Ma, you and Siqi, just apologize. Don’t worry, I’ll cover the money.”

Bai Siqi and her mother: ...?

’Is this about money?’

’How would they be able to face anyone after this?’

Song Yan saw their expressions and knew what they were thinking. He walked over and whispered, ”Ma, Siqi, if you don’t agree, the police will have to handle this by the book. You’ll be detained for at least fifteen days. Do you want to be locked up for fifteen days, or maybe even longer?”

The faces of the Bai mother and daughter turned deathly pale—of course they didn’t want that.

If they got locked up, their reputations would be ruined all the same.

Since the outcome was more or less the same either way, Mrs. Bai quickly made a decision. ”Fine, we’re willing to apologize. But the money—”

’Letting that bitch Fu Mingxue get her hands on that eight hundred—she couldn’t stomach it.’

’As if Fu Mingxue deserved that much money.’

Song Yan was desperate to get this matter resolved.

He immediately said, ”Ma, I’ll pay it.”

Mrs. Bai: ?...

’Wasn’t his money her money?’

Even though he was her former son-in-law, she knew exactly what was going on.

After all, she was the one who had given her daughter the idea to divorce him.

Even though the two were divorced, her daughter still had Song Yan under her thumb—he was the one who was always giving them money.
