章 99: Chapter 98: No Room for Face-saving

Ye Xinyan sneered inwardly. Did Madam Song really think she would not speak her mind? Qi Jia was frightened at the sight of her elderly couple, and not only did they show no remorse, but Madam Song even had the nerve to question her attitude. The mistreatment and disregard of Qi Jia by everyone in the third branch was an undeniable fact, a shared unspoken consensus within the entire Qi family. And as the future male heir who would carry on the second branch's lineage, our Qi Jia is naturally of much greater importance to the second branch of the Qi family and Qi Younian than you old folks.

"..." Qi Younian had intended to speak up and explain to Madam Song, but after hearing Ye Xinyan's words, he chose to remain silent.

Madam Song's face grew increasingly unpleasant as she lowered her eyelids, turned her head, and refused to look at Ye Xinyan again.
