Why was everyone blaming her mother for her own actions? Her mother had been long dead and had nothing to do on what she does in her life now. Lu Xinyi hated whenever someone talks bad about her mother. In her whole life, she never knew someone as patient and kind as her mother.
When she was a child, it was her mother who patiently took care of her, reassured her whenever she was scared. If she could be reborn to another lifetime, Lu Xinyi wished that she will be born from her mother's womb again.
Lu Xinyi stepped back, trying to distance herself from her wicked relative. Sun Ruying glared at niece with a wretched expression in her face. She was already red in rage while Lu Xinyi's young and beautiful face had only marred with the red mark from the slap she received from her.
"Does my Aunt Ruying thinks she has the right to teach me manners? I think you should go back to school, Auntie. Oh, wait. Do they taught their students not to plot against their own kin?" Lu Xinyi had been trying her best not to snap and be rude to this woman but her aunt was really testing her patience.
"Shut the fuck up! Did your mother tell you this bullshit? Lu Xinyi, I'm telling you, I didn't take anything from your mother. It was her who abandoned him for your father! Your mother was a loser back then just like you are right now! Meixiu didn't have the rights to be the Big Miss of the family." Sun Ruying yelled in rage, her daughter Qiyan stepped in and tried to pull her mother away from Lu Xinyi.
"Mom, calm down. Don't make a scene," she whispered.
Sun Qiyan tried to hide the smile on her lips. She was clearly satisfied to see Lu Xinyi losing her face on this event. Whoever man Lu Xinyi seduced will surely leave her after this.
Lu Xinyi frowned with her lips pressed together. She didn't want to answer Sun Ruying. If this persists, people might discover her marriage to Shen Yi soon and his name will be slandered because of her attitude.
Seeing that Lu Xinyi didn't want to reply to her, Sun Ruying stepped forward and raised her hand, intending to slap Lu Xinyi again and drag the young woman out of this place. She was so enraged that she summoned all her strength to slap her niece.
What she didn't expect was Lu Xinyi had anticipated her attack and had grabbed her wrist in a tight hold. Despite Lu Xinyi's smaller form, she was able to block her aunt's blow.
"I would advise you not to bring shame to yourself, Auntie." The look in Lu Xinyi's eyes had turned sharp. Her niece's fierce attitude actually shocked Sun Ruying.
Sun Qiyan cast a scornful look to her cousin. She was really afraid that Lu Xinyi had learned to talk back to them now. She hated her intensely.
"Y-you…" Sun Ruying stuttered. She couldn't believe that the normally gentle and weak niece she had kicked out from the Sun Mansion had learned some viciousness over the years.
"I am what?" Lu Xinyi threw her aunt's wrist away from her, making Sun Ruying stumble backward.
"Ah, I know. I'm still the legitimate granddaughter of the Sun family. The daughter of the woman you despised the most. Don't worry, Auntie. I'll surely get back what's rightfully mine and for my mother, so you better enjoy your remaining time while spending our family's fortune."
The mother and daughter gaped in shock at Lu Xinyi's blatant words. Wasn't this what they were trying to stop for years? For Lu Xinyi to stake her claim to the Sun family's fortune as the real heiress of the family? No. NO! They can't let her go back and join the Sun family!
After saying what she'd wanted to say for years, Lu Xinyi turned to leave.
"You stop right there!" Sun Ruying roared to her niece.
Lu Xinyi turned back around and looked up at her aunt's face, whose face was turning red. She also cast a sideways glance at Qiyan who was also angered by her.
Before she could ask what else do they want from her, another forceful slap descended on her face, causing Lu Xinyi to stumble on her feet. Her frail body was forced down to the floor with a bloody lip she got from the blow.
Lu Xinyi cried in pain, not from the slap she received but from the painful twist that happened to her ankle when she fell hard on the marble floor. She tried to fight back her tears but they started to run down on her cheeks.
"Xinxin!" Xiao Lan came back and found her friend pushed down the floor and crying. These mean women had surely attacked her dear Xinxin! She was too late to save Lu Xinyi. If only she had arrived earlier, this wouldn't happen.
"I hope Lady Sun wouldn't mind explaining why she slapped one of my esteemed guests tonight."
The harsh words from the Shen Matriarch weren't the one Lu Xinyi expected when Xiao Lan arrived with help. Behind Madam Shen, Shen Yi stood with a murderous look in his eyes.
