"Since my husband says so, and it seems the six elders didn't mean it, I naturally can't hold a grudge."
Ye Qingrou was a very smart woman; otherwise, she wouldn't have risen from nothing to become a wealthy socialite.
She understood well that continuing to quarrel at this moment would be pointless.
The best approach was to give her husband face, forgive the six elders, and say she had misunderstood them before.
This way, she gave her husband face, made the six elders grateful to him, and calmed the situation.
After all, the six elders were King Rank Beast Tamers and controlled many affairs of the Lin Family.
It was impossible to truly fall out with them.
And the six elders naturally didn't want to fall out with Lin Zhen and Ye Qingrou either.
They knew that if they did, Lin Yuan and Lin Zhen would never let them leave.
Their fate would then only be death.
Therefore, when they saw Ye Qingrou was no longer going to make an issue of it, they hurriedly thanked her.
"Thank you, Madam. We will be more careful with our words in the future."
"Yes, we will speak cautiously."
Ye Qingrou smiled and said, "You six elders speak too seriously. I was too emotional and impulsive before, and I apologize if I offended you. In fact, I have always regarded you as my elders."
There was no denying that Ye Qingrou was very skilled at playing people—giving a slap then a sweet smile.
She openly confronted them but later apologized in public, showing respect.
This made the six elders feel very comfortable and their previous grievances instantly vanished.
They were also touched and more determined to serve the Lin Family well.
They repeatedly told Ye Qingrou that the issue was not her fault, but their words were inappropriate, and they would be more careful.
Seeing his mother easily handle the six elders, Lin Luo couldn't help but admire her—she was truly resourceful.
"Since the misunderstanding is cleared, let's move on and not mention it again. Now, let's get back to business and discuss the real matter."
Lin Zhen brought the topic back to Gu Jingya.
This time, the six Great Elders had learned to be patient and no longer rushed to give opinions.
Ye Qingrou obviously could not disregard Lin Zhen and the elders' views and insist that Lin Luo marry Gu Jingya.
But she believed the best option was to make Gu Jingya part of the Lin Family and give her a baby Thunderous Tiger.
"How about this? We won't let Little Luo marry Gu Girl yet. Instead, let them date. And later, don't make Gu Girl the main wife, but a concubine."
"After Little Luo marries his future wife, he can take Gu Girl as a concubine. That way, Gu Girl still belongs to our Lin Family. Giving her a baby Thunderous Tiger won't be a problem—it's still within the family. What do you all think?"
Ye Qingrou thought for a moment, then said with bright eyes.
Hearing this, Lin Zhen's eyes lit up again.
This plan was quite good.
The six Great Elders naturally frowned.
This wasn't the result they wanted, but for now, they dared not say more.
Lin Luo twitched his mouth.
This idea was from his mother, and he had to admit it was clever.
However, it ignored one thing—Gu Jingya was no ordinary woman.
He could tell with no doubt that she would never agree to such a thing.
She might have some chance of agreeing to be the main wife, but as a concubine? No way.
Lin Luo felt helpless.
His mother claimed to understand Gu Jingya well, so how could she come up with such an idea?
Apparently, she didn't know her as well as he did.
Gu Jingya never left the house.
Their contact with her was far less than his.
These days, Lin Luo ran to her almost every day to train Battle Pets.
Naturally, he understood Gu Jingya better.
"This plan is good, Madam. You are really smart!"
Lin Zhen slapped his thigh in excitement, ready to proceed with it.
"Thank you for the compliment, husband."
Ye Qingrou smiled happily, feeling that a difficult problem was solved.
The six Great Elders were naturally not pleased.
Just as they thought the matter was settled, Lin Luo said helplessly,
"Dad, Mom, you're celebrating too soon."
Lin Zhen and Ye Qingrou paused, then looked at him puzzled.
Lin Luo said, "From what I know of Gu Jingya, don't even talk about making her a concubine. Even making her the main wife has a very low chance of her agreeing."
Lin Luo's words were like cold water poured on Lin Zhen and Ye Qingrou.
But Ye Qingrou was not convinced.
"Impossible. You're so outstanding and the future heir of the Lin Family. Even as a concubine, the status would be quite high. Gu Girl shouldn't refuse, right?"
