This was Zhao Youlin's first encounter with Duan Yarong's rage. She also knew that she was in the wrong. As such, she pursed her lips and silently accepted the elder's rebuke.
Mu Tingfeng stood quietly at the side. He frowned when he saw Zhao Youlin being rebuked by Duan Yarong and took the initiative to walk forward. He stood in front of Zhao Youlin and said, "The reason that this happened was because Jifeng failed to handle the case properly. As a result, an error occurred. This is our fault, and it has nothing to do with Youlin or Yichen. Before I came here, I had already informed Jifeng about this. I believe he would handle the fallout from this incident well and provide you with a satisfactory explanation."
Mu Tingfeng protected Zhao Youlin at all costs. Seeing this, Duan Yarong's eyes flashed. Her dark expression faded and her tone became softer.
