Chapter 48 - 24 Xiao Que’er Hides a Traitor_2
Mrs. Wang was still furious; it was better for her not to speak, as anything she said would surely make Mrs. Wang even more disgusted.
Sang Wan could not afford to talk back to Mrs. Wang at this moment, but she also couldn’t just swallow this insult silently. So she lifted her eyes and glared fiercely at Xiao Que’er, who was standing by with her hands down, without caring if Mrs. Wang saw her do it.
She believed that as long as Mrs. Wang saw it, she would definitely harbor some doubts and would inquire about it.
Xiao Que’er did not expect Sang Wan to be so bold as to glare at her in front of Mrs. Wang. Feeling guilty, she averted her gaze and involuntarily shrank back.
Mrs. Wang’s expression did indeed falter for a moment, and she glanced at Xiao Que’er before sniffing dismissively. She stopped scolding Sang Wan and waved her hand to dismiss her.
Even if she sensed something was off, as a mother-in-law, there was much she could not ask in front of Sang Wan. If there truly was something else going on, what did her scolding of Sang Wan amount to? Was she the one who was wrong?
"Yes, Miss Wan shall take her leave! Please calm your anger, Mother. Miss Wan will not dare to do so again!" Sang Wan seized the opportunity to retreat, respectfully bowing to Mrs. Wang.
Seeing that she harbored no resentment, Mrs. Wang felt somewhat better, though she still stubbornly snorted: "Next time? There better not be a next time! Alright, you may go!"
