"Sister-in-law, do you not want to see me?"
Lin Mengyao was already terrified and furious; her words carried thorns the moment she opened her mouth.
Lan Xin Ai froze for a moment. "You must be mistaken."
"Then why is it that as soon as I came downstairs, you told me to go back to my room?" Lin Mengyao pressed aggressively, her emotions spiraling out of control.
"Mengyao! Is that how you talk to your sister-in-law?"
Elder Lady Xi, overhearing Lin Mengyao's biting words, couldn't help but scold her.
"Grandma." Lin Mengyao's eyes reddened instantly. Her mood was already terrible, and now seeing Elder Lady Xi siding with Lan Xin Ai only made it worse.
Her heart swelled with jealousy. Ever since Lan Xin Ai married into the family, she got whatever she wanted, while Mengyao had nothing.
And now, with a ticking time bomb lingering nearby, she was on the verge of breaking down.
"Go back to your room and rest."
