Chapter 1458: Chapter 1475: The Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law Showdown Begins 3

Xiaonuan widened her eyes. Now her alcohol seemed to have sobered a bit, but her expression was still somewhat bewildered. She just nodded lightly.

Nangong Yaoling still looked at her with some unease before turning to leave.

However, at this moment, the bedroom door was pushed open.

Lan Jinqin was already standing at the door, looking at Xia Xiaonuan lying on the bed with a face full of conflicting emotions.

"Mommy, you..."

At this moment, Xia Xiaonuan lying on the bed looked at the unfamiliar woman in front of her and couldn’t help but feel a mess inside.

She propped herself up and listened to Nangong Yaoling calling this woman Mommy, suddenly recalling something.

This woman... Could she be her mother?

Xiaonuan widened her eyes, looking at Lan Jinqin.

"Xiaonuan, are you on a business trip here? Or is there something wrong with what I’ve done as your mother-in-law? As soon as I come back, you hide in the hotel?" Lan Jinqin spoke with a surprisingly aggrieved and sad tone.

Nangong Yaoling’s lips twitched slightly.

Xia Xiaonuan was also slightly startled.

But she looked strangely at Lan Jinqin, then glanced at Nangong Yaoling.

Nangong Yaoling hurriedly stepped forward to grab his mother’s arm and explained with a smile, "Mommy, don’t be mad. It’s all my fault. Xiaonuan got drunk today, and I brought her here. I also deceived you; Xiaonuan doesn’t know anything yet..."

"Son, you’re truly making Mommy sad. Even if Xiaonuan is drunk, you can’t take her to a hotel, right? It’s like I’m the mother-in-law who can’t tolerate her daughter-in-law! By doing this, how do you expect Xiaonuan to see me? It seems like I deliberately came back to drive her away..."

Lan Jinqin seemed to get more upset as she spoke, her eyes slightly reddening, looking as if she was about to cry.

Nangong Yaoling quickly said, "It’s my fault, Mommy! It’s all my mistake. You can scold or hit me, just please don’t cry!"

Xia Xiaonuan also hurriedly propped herself up, groggily saying, "Auntie... I’m sorry, I... I didn’t expect you to come back suddenly today..."

As soon as Xiaonuan spoke, Lan Jinqin’s eyes widened suddenly, looking at Xia Xiaonuan as if seeing a ghost.

"What did you call me? Auntie?"

Nangong Yaoling held his forehead with his hand, quickly signaling to Xiaonuan.

Xiaonuan was really unable to address a stranger as Mom, so she initially called Auntie. Realizing it was inappropriate after speaking, she saw Nangong Yaoling’s signal and quickly said, "...Mom... I... I’m sorry..."

After saying, she slightly lowered her head.

Her mind was also very troubled at this moment, feeling dizzy as if she were dreaming.

She had actually met her mother, and even called her Mom?

Yet, she understood clearly that this Mom, and that Mom, were completely different concepts.

Moreover, even if it’s her biological mother, hadn’t she already abandoned her back then?

Xiaonuan bit her lower lip, feeling suddenly very uncomfortable in her heart.

Lan Jinqin looked at Xiaonuan, trying hard to suppress the anger in her chest. She had thought outside for a long time, no matter what, she couldn’t lose her temper, especially not in front of Ling’er.

First, she couldn’t let Ling’er struggle, second, she couldn’t let him feel sad, thinking she’s making things difficult for his wife.

Moreover, if this woman affected their mother-son relationship, it wouldn’t be worth it!

After all, she had already made up her mind. Such a woman, prone to getting drunk like this, how could she be a daughter-in-law of the Nangong Family?
