"Mother!" Shi Lian suddenly knelt down, kowtowing to Mrs. Wang. Lifting her head, her eyes brimming with tears, she opened her mouth, about to speak.
Seeing the situation was about to worsen, Sang Wan hastily spoke before her, "Third sister, thank the mother for her nurturing and quickly go back! Stop crying, you can't cry during such a joyous occasion!" Sang Wan said, while secretly giving Shi Lian a meaningful look.
The words Shi Lian was about to say out of impulse were timely blocked by Sang Wan, and now she came to her senses, frightened and sweating coldly.
She naturally knew the temper of her stepmother, even as her own daughter, there was no reason to openly defy her mother over her own marriage matters, let alone her being a stepdaughter. Had it not been for Sang Wan stopping her just now, she could not even imagine what would have happened once she voiced her plea for refusal!
"Yes!" Shi Lian then kowtowed two more times, teary-eyed, and stood up to leave.
