Chapter 346 Each has its own well-kept secrets (2)_1
"Mother—," Chen Shanshan stared at Mrs. Du in disbelief, clearly not understanding why Mrs. Du would make excuses for a country bumpkin.
Mrs. Du had no mind to explain to her, seeing Mo Yan’s indifferent face, which clearly showed no interest in engaging with her, made Mrs. Du’s heart feel as if it was blocked by a boulder, extremely uncomfortable, and the questions she wanted to ask also couldn’t be voiced.
Mo Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but just then, Xin Er, pulling Zhenzhen, got off the carriage and ran over. Zhenzhen glared angrily at the mother-daughter pair and asked, "Sister, did someone bully you?"
Mo Yan was taken aback and instinctively positioned herself in front of the two youngsters, hiding their faces, "Sister is fine! Didn’t I tell you not to come down? What if you get sick from the cold? Hurry back onto the carriage!"
The two little ones had charged out from behind her, and she hadn’t even noticed. She just hoped that the woman, who seemed to be Mrs. Du, hadn’t seen their faces, for one child looked so much like her, and the other nearly a carving of their father. If this woman truly was Mrs. Du, she would certainly recognize them!
The siblings didn’t know their sister’s concerns; seeing their sister standing in front of them, they simply thought she was worried about them getting hurt, which only made them more certain that the two women had been bullying their sister.
Thus, the two of them simultaneously stepped out from behind Mo Yan, their little faces fully exposed to Mrs. Du’s gaze, and Mo Yan couldn’t block them in time.
"Why do you want to bully my sister?" Xin Er glared at the mother-daughter pair with an angry face, unaware of how much of a shock her own visage presented to them.
