I originally thought the old man would imdiately scold his daughter-in-law, but to his surprise, things developed completely unexpectedly. Not only did the old man not reprimand his daughter-in-law, but he even agreed with her. "Miss Xi, I, old man, have the sa confusion. Your daughter is just your adopted daughter. What blood relation does she have with my wife? Since there’s no blood relation, then she’s not considered a familiar person. Does Miss Xi have a habit of taking care of strangers? Anyway, I, old man, do not."
Xi Xilan’s face instantly turned the color of soy sauce. Her plan had been completely broken, and sitting here any longer felt like sitting on needles, utterly uncomfortable. At the sa ti, she was full of bla for her daughter, who always let her down and embarrassed her. Her old face had been completely thrown aside.
Seeing Xi Xilan unable to respond, the old man exchanged glances with his daughter-in-law, ready to tell this mother and daughter to get out, but at that mont, Lin Mobai, who had been silent, stopped them.
"Xi Xilan, An Yuya, you keep bothering us again and again. I’m tired of it. Let’s take this opportunity today to clear things up, and please don’t harass my wife anymore."
Xi Xilan imdiately beca angry: "Lin Mubai, what do you an by that?"
With a cold smile at the corner of his mouth, Lin Mubai continued, "What do I an? Just the literal aning. Has Miss Xi never practiced reading? It’s hard to believe soone who doesn’t understand such a shallow aning was once a chairman."
"You..." Xi Xilan widened her eyes in anger, her face twisted with rage, making her already old face look even more grotesque and horrifying.
"Not at all. Xi Xilan, I think what I’m saying is just a fact. Today, I don’t mind stating my position clearly: An Nan is now my wife, so she’s the Lin Family’s daughter-in-law. No one in this world has yet been born who can bully a daughter-in-law of the Lin Family, so please consider your actions carefully in the future."
"Lin Mubai, you’re going too far!"
"What if I am bullying you? Who can do anything about it?" Lin Mubai said with an unruly expression.
An Yuya was rendered speechless by the questioning, and could only look to her mother for help, only to et a pair of resentful eyes.
"Mom, I..."
As soon as An Yuya spoke, Xi Xilan scolded her: "Don’t call , you’ve embarrassed enough."
An Yuya, who never had a good temper and often spoke without thinking, imdiately retorted back: "Why are you taking your anger out on ? What did I do wrong?"
Losing face in front of others was bad enough, but to be further embarrassed by her own daughter was sothing Xi Xilan couldn’t tolerate. She imdiately got up and slapped her, the action so swift that it couldn’t be stopped by others.
Ordinarily, soone would step in to stop such an act, but everyone in the Lin Family was not ordinary. They all continued sitting, watching the scene unfold like a farce, with no one stepping in or saying a word to stop it. Everyone was just impatient, simply hoping this mother and daughter duo would hurry up and leave after their drama.
