"Su Xiyang, how dare you speak to our mother like that? Do you have any manners? If not, I'll teach you!" Qin Yue seized the opportunity to lash out.
Jin Bowen and Wang Qing were both shocked. They hadn't expected Qin Yue's reaction to be so explosive, as if she had swallowed a barrel of dynamite. However, Su Xiyang's response made everyone present widen their eyes even further. "Didn't I slap you hard enough?"
Qin Yue was struck speechless.
Wang Qing was, too.
"What do you mean?" Wang Qing spun around to stare at Qin Yue, and finally, she saw the mark on her face. "Your face?"
"Mom..." Qin Yue sniffled, tears welling in her eyes. "I didn't dare tell you. I was afraid it would affect your relationship with her, but... this woman is just too much. In my eyes, even though we didn't grow up together, she's still your daughter. So, I've always treated her like my own older sister..."
