Chapter 954: Chapter 954 Revealing the Truth 3

Seeing the two people who suddenly walked over from the side of the road, Shen Mianmian certainly wasn’t surprised; she had seen them both during the kick-off ceremony earlier but had just pretended not to.

"Mrs. Ruan, Miss Cheng, may I ask what you are doing here?"

Shen Mianmian furrowed her brows and asked coldly.

Fearing that the two might harm Shen Mianmian, Yang Xiaoxi stood protectively in front of her like a mother hen, glaring at them with a vigilant expression.

Noticing Shen Mianmian’s attitude, Ruan Lingyu felt a wave of disgust and said with a frown, "Shen Mianmian, is this the way you behave in front of your elders?"

Shen Mianmian chuckled coldly, "Mrs. Ruan, perhaps your memory is failing you; you’ve forgotten what I said at the mall. I made it clear then that if we ever ran into each other again, we should act like strangers. I have no desire to cozy up to you, and I expect you feel the same about me. So, it’s better for us both if we just leave each other alone, wouldn’t you agree?"

Ruan Lingyu laughed out of irritation, "Shen Mianmian, where do you get the confidence to say such things in front of me?"

A mother being spoken to like this by her own daughter – which mother could accept it?

"Exactly." Cheng Xining echoed, "Shen Mianmian, don’t you have any manners? I’ve never seen anyone talk to their elders like you do."

"Manners are reserved for those who understand reason," Shen Mianmian retorted with scorn in her gaze. "Neither of you would be standing here blocking my way if at least one of you could understand reason."

"You..."

Ruan Lingyu was so angered by Shen Mianmian that she choked on her words, her lips quivering with rage.

"Shen Mianmian, how were you raised by your adoptive parents to be so rude?"

"And how is that any of your business?" Shen Mianmian sneered, "How others have raised me is not for you to question on the street, is it? Mrs. Ruan, I’ve said it before: you don’t like me, and I sure don’t like you, so it’s best we act like strangers. What do you mean by stopping me like this?"

Truthfully, Shen Mianmian wanted nothing to do with Ruan Lingyu. Everything in her life was going well, and she didn’t want to disturb that peace by adding unnecessary complications.

"Who says it’s none of my business?" Ruan Lingyu, though infuriated, calmed down and looked at Shen Mianmian with a cold gaze. "I carried you in my womb for ten months, and now I can’t even speak to you? Showing such an attitude towards your own mother, how did a student like you manage to get into Beijing University?"

Her husband and son were always cautious in protecting Shen Mianmian, fearing she wouldn’t be able to handle the truth. But she was determined to reveal it.

She wanted to see how Shen Mianmian would face her upon learning of her true identity.

Yang Xiaoxi was about to open her mouth to argue on Shen Mianmian’s behalf, but upon hearing Ruan Lingyu’s words, she was so shocked her mouth hung open in surprise.

What did Ruan Lingyu mean by her words?

She carried Mianmian for ten months? How could that be possible? Did that imply that they were mother and daughter?

My god, this news was explosive!

Cheng Xining was also stunned for a second, not expecting Ruan Lingyu to suddenly reveal the truth. However, seeing the two at loggerheads, a trace of smugness flickered in her eyes.

Shen Mianmian’s gaze was indifferent as she locked eyes with Ruan Lingyu for a moment, appearing not at all surprised. Her composure made Ruan Lingyu feel odd.

Just when she thought Shen Mianmian didn’t believe what she had said, Shen Mianmian suddenly spoke up.
