'But it's easy enough to explain,' Ren Xingchen mused. Sheng Leyun must have been deeply attached to Sheng Xibao and didn't want anyone to replace him. That was why she was acting like a little porcupine, taking every chance to stick her quills into her and her husband.
She had no patience for Sheng Leyun to begin with, and now this little brat was targeting her!
Ren Xingchen felt a wave of indignation. She had just arrived in a new place as a new bride, facing the child of the deceased, her new in-laws, and the city-folk neighbors. Her plate was already full, and on top of it all, she had to deal with this little tyrant.
"Sheng Leyun, I'll say it again: no one owes you a thing. If you weren't so young, do you think I wouldn't want to send you to live somewhere else?"
"It would be one thing if you just behaved, but if you keep carrying on like this, you just see if I don't…"
She trailed off, not knowing what she could even do.
