Mu Yan’s eyes were clear and innocent, with a hint of naivety, like a child just beginning to speak.
Childish words often leave people speechless.
But she happened to be an adult, not easily fooled.
Not only Liang Rong, but everyone else was stunned, not expecting her to ask such a question.
How should one answer this?
Historically, stepmothers and stepdaughters have always been at odds, and after being away for years and finally returning ho, a new stepmother would make anyone unhappy.
What’s more, her mother’s departure back then had sothing to do with this stepmother.
Even if she doesn’t know now, she will naturally hear the rumors over ti.
Zhuang Shaoyang’s face showed a bit of tension, his eyes filled with regret as he looked at Mu Yan.
She already disliked him as a father, and now because of Liang Rong, it would probably only worsen.
Liang Rong’s awkwardness was montary, and soon she said gracefully, "Yes, I am a guest."
Everyone gave her a surprised look, she would rather wrong herself?
Mrs. Zhuang saw this and, rarely, felt a bit satisfied with her.
Suddenly, a female voice ca, "What guest, you are the second wife of the Zhuang family, my second sister-in-law!"
As soon as these words ca out, everyone’s expressions changed, and they all looked at Zhuang Jiaoyang.
The old lady originally thought Liang Rong was sensible, but who knew her daughter feared nothing more than chaos in the world, making her glare angrily.
"What nonsense are you talking in front of Nuannuan!"
She then looked at Mu Yan, "Nuannuan, don’t listen to your aunt’s nonsense."
Mu Yan smiled at her, then looked at Liang Rong with aningful eyes, and finally glanced at Zhuang Shaoyang, seeming to comprehend sothing.
Zhuang Jiaoyang was a bit displeased, "Am I not telling the truth? Do you think you can hide such things from her?"
The old lady’s face turned pale and angry, wishing she could go over and slap her.
Which child, after years of absence, would want to hear they have a stepmother who also played a part in causing their mother to leave?
"Shut up!" Zhuang Shaoyang suddenly shouted. He looked at Liang Rong, angrily saying, "Go back to your room."
Liang Rong looked at him a bit at a loss. Although she tried her best to control her emotions, she still appeared aggrieved.
The atmosphere in the living room beca subtly tense.
"Second brother, why make second sister-in-law go back!" Zhuang Jiaoyang felt it unfair for Liang Rong.
"Do you have a say here?" Zhuang Shaoyang glared coldly at her.
"Dad!" Zhuang Jiaoyang looked at Mr. Zhuang, "Look at how second brother talks to , isn’t a married daughter considered part of the family?"
Mr. Zhuang looked at her but said nothing. However, his sharp gaze forced her to avoid eye contact, feeling sowhat guilty and afraid.
"It’s okay, I guessed it." A clear voice suddenly ca.
Everyone looked at Mu Yan. Just now, they were too guilty to look at her face, so no one knew her emotions.
Seeing her now with such a nonchalant deanor, they were all puzzled.
Under normal circumstances, shouldn’t she be angry?
Could it be amnesia, so she doesn’t rember the past?
"Nuannuan, I..." Liang Rong seed to want to explain.
Mu Yan looked at her with a smile, "What?"
Liang Rong didn’t expect her to look at her so calmly, montarily not knowing what to say, seemingly caught off guard.
Seeing Liang Rong’s embarrassed face, Zhuang Jiaoyang frowned slightly, "Nuannuan, no matter what happened in the past, it’s all over. Your mom is already dead, a stepmother is also a mom, you should be good to your aunt Liang Rong!"
