"Mother." Ming Rushi's greeting sounded formal for a dialogue in their house.
Madam Ming did not look happy. She slammed her hand on the oak table.
"Who told you to get so reckless as to get yourself pregnant?!"
Ming Rushi shivered as she was shocked as to how her mother found out.
"What? You think I wouldn't know?! You imbecile!" Madam Ming threw a pen towards her daughter, losing all gracefulness as the lady of the house. "Xiu Jin will not take someone like you to be his heir!"
Madam Ming was shaking with the intense emotions. Her old, but still delicate, facial features were distorted in an ugly, menacing glare. It was as if she was going to punish a slave, not scolding her own flesh and blood.
"Mom...I..."
Ming Xiaoyu turned calm, then with a straight face, said, "Get rid of that baby."
"No! Mom, I can't...I won't!"
"No one is asking for your opinion. It seems like you are more vulnerable than necessary. I believe we need to act now. XCG should be ours!"
