When Tan Yalan heard Gu Qingjiu's words, her heart trembled.
She thought that Gu Qingjiu wouldn't say anything and hadn't expected that the lass would blurt out the matter in front of so many people.
Her countenance turned too terrible suddenly.
Her original intent was to humiliate Gu Qingjiu. Still, she wanted no one to find out that Gu Qingjiu was her biological child.
As for Gu Qingjiu, at that moment, she finally saw Tan Yalan's true colors.
She could only see loath and resentment in Tan Yalan's eyes, and not a trace of the gentleness a mother ought to possess.
Perhaps Gu Qingjiu might never need the answers to specific questions.
Because the answers no longer mattered.
"Madam Tan, there's a saying that goes, 'You can eat whatever you like, but you cannot speak as you please.' You're going to have to bear responsibility for your defamatory speech."
"How was that slander?"
