The Stepmother’s Counterattack: Raising a Child in a Bygone Era

Seeing the shock and disbelief on Ou Liya’s face, Shen Mingzhu couldn’t help but secretly amuse herself, "Who else did you think it was?"

Ou Liya’s expression turned cold, "Shen Mingzhu, what do you want with me?"

Shen Mingzhu raised an eyebrow, "I’m quite busy, and I didn’t want to see you. After you left school, we should have gone our separate ways. To be honest, I can’t understand – do we really have such a deep-seated hatred between us? Is it worth slandering me in front of others after all this time?"

"I have no idea what you’re talking about. If you don’t have anything else, I’m going inside."

Ou Liya wanted to avoid the confrontation with a guilty conscience, but Shen Mingzhu wasn’t about to let her walk away just like that.

"Miss Zhuang came to my shop the other day and told me everything you did in great detail."

Ou Liya froze, her face a mix of shock and confusion.

She was surprised that Zhuang Xueqi had indeed gone to see Shen Mingzhu, and puzzled about what sort of relationship Zhuang Xueqi had with Shen Mingzhu to personally inform her about such matters.

Could it be that Shen Mingzhu and Zhuang Xueqi are friends?

The fact that Zhuang Xueqi not only didn’t believe her but also gave her a severe lesson made sense now.
