"Goads won't work on me, Miss Yan. My husband Mo Qing has discerning taste, so he won't simply settle for anyone who throws themselves at him."
With a pointed meaning, she looked at Yan Yufei up and down using the same scrutinizing gaze Yan originally used to look at her.
Ignoring her strained efforts to be composed and elegant, which collapsed instantly at this moment, she continued:
"By the way, please pass a message to Mrs. Yan for me: No matter her intentions in seeking Mo Qing, I advise her to restrain herself. I'm not particularly concerned with filial piety, and if she crosses me, I won't treat her tenderly as a man would."
In Yan Yufei's imagination, Qiao Xu should have been modest and ingratiating towards her mother-in-law, instead of displaying disdain and contempt as she did now.
What gave this woman the right to be so righteous?
Did she truly believe that Lu Moqing would never acknowledge his biological mother?
