Chapter 121: Chapter 122: Argument

Aunt Chen, upon hearing this, hurriedly reached out to cover Shi Mei’s ears.

Wang Quanxia, seemingly oblivious, said, "Last time, she came and complained that you embarrassed her. Now it seems she’s been stirring trouble behind our back all along. Just wait until I get my hands on her!"

Shi Xuebai patted Wang Quanxia’s hand and said sternly, "Watch your language in front of the child!"

Wang Quanxia, used to throwing her weight around at home, was a bit defiant when her husband slapped her hand. She retorted, "Why did you hit me? Shi Bingbing used to bully Shi Mei all the time at home. Now that Shi Mei has married into the Shi Family, not only does Shi Bingbing not hold her in high regard, she even badmouths us in front of Shi Mei. Can you believe what she said, accusing us of pulling out her oxygen mask? Doesn’t she remember if it weren’t for us raising her this well, Shi Mei wouldn’t be alive and well today, let alone have found such a good husband?"

Listening to Wang Quanxia’s confident words, Shi Mei’s eyes drooped, softening the coldness they held.

And when Aunt Chen had just heard Shi Mei mentioning the ’mask,’ she hadn’t even thought about an oxygen mask.

Who would have thought that Wang Quanxia would confess without being pressed!

This was too much!

Aunt Chen’s hands trembled slightly with anger, and she felt even more heartache for Shi Mei in her arms.

But unfortunately, she was just a maid and could neither say nor claim the right to say anything.

Listening to his wife’s words, Shi Xuebai found some truth in them. He said, "Indeed, Shi Mei, don’t listen to Shi Bingbing’s nonsense. Your biological parents died young. If it weren’t for us becoming your parents, you wouldn’t have parents now."

"I don’t want parents," Shi Mei clung to Aunt Chen, her voice very small and pitiful, "You are bad guys, you wanted to abandon Shi Mei because you are afraid of spending money," she said, and large tears started falling, "My husband wants to abandon Shi Mei too, wuu wuu wuu..."

Aunt Chen’s eyes burned with pity as she held Shi Mei, her voice somewhat choked, "Sweetie, your husband was just teasing you; he didn’t really mean to abandon you. Don’t cry now."

Shi Mei sniffed her nose and said hoarsely, "Really?"

"Really."

Upon hearing this, Wang Quanxia’s eyes brightened.

What kind of person was Mr. Shi?

The rumors about him from the outside world were plentiful.

However, without exception, they all described him as stern, serious, and ruthless.

And now, was Shi Lingyan actually joking with Shi Mei?

Could this mean that after living here for more than a month, their relationship had developed to a certain extent?

A thought flashed through Wang Quanxia’s mind, her smile becoming even more enthusiastic, "Aunt Chen, right? You go ahead with your work; I’d like to have a word alone with my daughter."

The sorrow that Aunt Chen had initially felt instantly turned to anger, "She doesn’t even recognize you as family; she has nothing to say to you."

Wang Quanxia was taken aback, then suddenly, her temper exploded like a lit firework.

Standing up, Wang Quanxia put her hands on her hips and haughtily said, "I can’t believe a mere maid like you would dare to lose your temper at me. Do you know who I am? I’m your young lady’s mother!"

Aunt Chen, having never encountered such a person, lost her temper as well, "What kind of mother are you? You pulled out her oxygen mask because you were afraid of spending money!" Saying this, Aunt Chen couldn’t help but start crying while holding Shi Mei, "If you had had a shred of conscience back then, she wouldn’t be in this state now!"
