Song Yingqing's voice was not loud, but it was enough for everyone attending the banquet to hear.
An uproar ensued.
"I've long heard that Miss Nan's adopted sister is ignorant and ill-tempered, constantly causing trouble. The Nan Family had no choice but to send her to the countryside to be raised."
"Even so, the Nan Family still got her married into a decent household, ensuring she wouldn't have to worry about food and drink for the rest of her life. I didn't expect her to be so ungrateful as to sever ties."
"Such an ingrate, truly unworthy of being mentioned in the same breath as Nan Qingqing!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Lan was reminded of her own stepdaughter and couldn't help but flare up with anger.
"Severing ties is for the best, to prevent her from causing even bigger problems in the future that could drag down the family."
When Song Lihan heard this, a shade of darkness flashed through the calm depths of his eyes.
