Chapter 642: The Fierce Yanyan Unravels Her Heart Knot (3)_1
At this point, Mrs. Du abruptly stopped, panic replacing the accusation on her face before she quickly concealed it, allowing the expression of blame to surface again.
Mo Yan observed the series of changes in Mrs. Du and assumed she feared their identities as sisters would be exposed, that she would be despised by that man and no longer able to lead a life of luxury. Mo Yan’s gaze turned even more mocking, emotionlessly she said, "Should we simply stand by and let them beat us without fighting back? Or are you suggesting—in your eyes, whether we’re right or wrong, we should just stand there obediently and let your husband and daughter hit us?"
When she mentioned "husband and daughter," she deliberately emphasized the words, seeing that Mrs. Du’s face stiffened, her scorn all the more apparent.
The words struck Mrs. Du like a dagger to the heart. Her already pale face turned even whiter as tears fell in big drops, "No, no, that’s not what I meant, I didn’t..."
At that moment, Mo Yan didn’t even want to glance at Mrs. Du, let alone care whether her claims were true. Seeing Xin Er staring blankly at Mrs. Du, unsure of what to think, Mo Yan grew tense and quickly took her hand, speaking warmly, "Xin Er, it’s getting late. We should go home now and come back to shop another day."
Xin Er snapped back to reality, moving her gaze from Mrs. Du’s face to her sister’s, the inquiry and doubt in her eyes making Mo Yan’s heart skip a beat.
After a while, Xin Er returned her sister’s sweet smile and nodded, "Then let’s go back home. We can ask Aunt Wu which colors they like and come back to choose."
