Yan Xinxin’s eyes were opened once again. This Sister Lin really knew how to wield authority with extre precision!
With so many maids and servants nearby, her demand for Yan Xinxin to apologize to her daughter was clearly a way to assert dominance in front of everyone.
It was also her way of letting Yan Xinxin understand that Sister Lin’s position in this household was far from ordinary!
Yan Xinxin remained unfazed, calmly eting the glare from Sister Lin before turning her gaze to Ye Wei’er.
What’s this?
Were they seriously waiting for her, Yan Xinxin, to apologize?
If she was genuinely in the wrong, she wouldn’t need them to say it—she would apologize.
But in this matter, she was absolutely not at fault!
"Madam, Sister Lin has only this one request. As long as the young mistress apologizes to Wei’er, I won’t pursue this matter any further."
Sister Lin spoke with an exaggerated sense of righteousness, holding Ye Wei’er’s hand with a look full of pity.
"As a mother, I can’t allow my Wei’er to suffer any grievances. Even if the young master were here, I’d still say the sa thing!"
The words sounded touching, but no one seed moved by them. The maids and servants quietly observing the scene from a distance remained indifferent.
Ye Wei’er, however, walked to Sister Lin, her eyes red, looking pitifully aggrieved yet moved.
"Mom..."
She called out softly, tears threatening to spill over.
This performance felt a bit overdone, and Yan Xinxin found herself losing patience.
Just as she was about to speak, Lin Yuan’ai stood up.
Her gaze was calm as she glanced briefly at Yan Xinxin, then adjusted the silk scarf draped over her shoulders before turning to Ye Wei’er.
"Well then, Wei’er, what do you think?"
Lin Yuan’ai asked, as though seeking Ye Wei’er’s opinion.
Yan Xinxin hadn’t held any hope that Lin Yuan’ai would stand by her side. After all, she’d made it clear she didn’t like her from the very beginning.
However, Yan Xinxin also didn’t believe Lin Yuan’ai would go out of her way to favor the mother-daughter duo. Doing so would only publicly embarrass Yan Xinxin in front of all the maids and servants.
Yet Lin Yuan’ai seed unusually attentive toward Ye Wei’er...
"Madam Mo, my mother is right. Although I ca to work in this household, I can’t allow myself to be falsely accused without reason. If this continues, it will be very difficult for to remain here..."
"Wei’er is right! Madam, there’s no other way—an apology is absolutely necessary!"
Sister Lin pressed on relentlessly, clearly seizing the opportunity while Mo Chuxi was absent to suppress Yan Xinxin and vent her anger!
Seeing through Sister Lin and Ye Wei’er’s sches, Yan Xinxin calmly fixed her gaze on the mother-daughter pair waiting for her apology.
"It’s impossible for to apologize..."
"An apology is sothing you must give!"
Lin Yuan’ai suddenly interrupted Yan Xinxin.
Sister Lin and Ye Wei’er heard her words, and their faces lit up with undisguised delight.
This only proved that in Lin Yuan’ai’s eyes, Yan Xinxin truly held no significance.
Yan Xinxin was slightly startled but quickly composed herself. Her eyes t Lin Yuan’ai’s sharp gaze, but before three seconds had passed, Lin Yuan’ai looked away and turned to the mother-daughter pair.
"Sister Lin."
"Yes, Madam."
"Apologize."
"...What?"
Hearing those two words, Sister Lin froze montarily, then let out a baffled question.
"Madam?"
She looked at Lin Yuan’ai in confusion, and Ye Wei’er’s expression darkened as well.
"Don’t understand? I’m telling you to apologize to the young mistress!"
"..., Madam, why should I apologize to her?"
"Her?"
Lin Yuan’ai frowned slightly in displeasure, directing her gaze at Sister Lin’s disdainful expression.
"The ’her’ you’re referring to is the Mo family’s young mistress, the wife that Chuxi married in front of the entire world, the mistress of this household! And regardless of whether she was at fault in this matter or not, it’s not your place as a servant to reprimand her!"
