"What do you mean? My children have been through such a terrible thing, and I, their mother, can't even find out?" As she spoke, she pointed her finger at Chen Siyuan, her finger practically poking two holes in Chen Siyuan's face.
"Oh--"
Chen Siyuan laughed, but it was a cold laugh. She glanced at the little bit of green on Aunt Zhao's fingertip. Damn it, she actually hid poison in her fingertip. What a cruel heart.
Since Aunt Zhao wants to ruin herself, then don't blame her for being ruthless.
Wanting to be suppressed by someone of authority? That's just a pipe dream.
A mere concubine is nothing more than a servant; what servant would dare to cause trouble in front of their master?
"My mother is dead, so are you dead too? What I see before me is a ghost?" Chen Siyuan, you've made up your mind. She dares to admit it, and she can kill her right here today.
"you....."
“You made a mistake. You came back without your father’s permission and then caused a scene in front of the young lady. Who gave you the right? Who gave you the nerve?”
As soon as Chen Siyuan finished speaking, Chunlan stepped forward and kicked her knee, causing Aunt Zhao to kneel on the ground with a thud.
"Without your master's permission, you, a mere servant, dare to cause trouble? You're courting death!"
Chunlan immediately slapped Aunt Zhao.

"Chen Siyuan, you bitch, stop pretending! You did all of this?"
"I am a member of the Chen family, and I will not tarnish the Chen family's reputation. Even if I dislike someone, I will not ruin their name just to make way for them." Chen Siyuan said as she stepped forward. "Aunt Zhao, you've taken a fancy to the Tao family and want Chen Xin to marry into them as the legitimate daughter. If you wanted that, you should have said so earlier. With just one word from me, Chen Xin would be the legitimate second young lady. As for the marriage contract, I never liked it in the first place, and I wouldn't mind giving it up. But you shouldn't have bribed Song Ji to ruin my reputation and still dared to try to force me to marry. From now on..."
Chen Siyuan recounted, word by word, the plans some people had made back then.
