Xia Yan frowned when she saw Qiu Xin’s angered and anxious expression. She knew that she had struck a nerve with Qiu Xin. However, she had hoped to do so.
Qiu Xin wanted to cover Xia Yan’s mouth and suffocate her to death, but Xia Yan didn’t plan on giving Qiu Xin a chance. She grabbed Qiu Xin’s wrist with one hand and exerted force.
Qiu Xin fell to the ground, screaming in pain. She grabbed her aching wrist and looked at Mo He accusingly. “Mo He, look at what she did! She…”
“What’s wrong with what I did? Can’t I defend myself when you were the one who grabbed my arm first?” Xia Yan snorted as she showed disdain toward Qiu Xin’s snitching.
Mo He frowned and thought it was an eyesore to see Xia Yan’s smug expression. She sneered, “You, apologize to Qiu Xin right now!”
“On what basis?! Xia Yan didn’t hesitate to question Mo He’s demands.
Mo He’s expression became colder. “You hurt her, that’s why!”
“But she hurt me first!” Xia Yan retorted without backing down.
Mo He noticed that Xia Yan was disobedient as his expression became unsightly. “Did the Xia family raise such an unruly person?!”
Xia Yan stood up abruptly. She faced Mo He and said coldly, “Don’t speak about my family. We don’t need you to judge us! Besides, how great can your family be?”
“It seems that any random woman can enter a married man’s room in the middle of the night around here. People that live here might not think much of it, but others would think Qiu Xin is your lover!”
“How dare you say such things?!” Mo He was furious as his glare grew more vicious. “It’s the Xia family’s motto to create such rumors and cause trouble! Your family is a bunch of liars!”
Hearing this, Xia Yan merely shrugged and scoffed, “You might be right about that. But no matter what happens to my family, I am your wife now. Is it too much for me to ask for a necklace from you?”
Mo He’s eyebrows furrowed when he heard Xia Yan calling herself his wife. Their constant clamoring attracted Jiang Qiu, who was currently downstairs.
Jiang Qiu opened the door and fiercely glared at Xia Yan. “What’s going on here?! Little He hasn’t fully recovered, yet you two are making a racket! Get out of here, both of you!”

Qiu Xin immediately got up from the ground and ran toward Jiang Qiu. “Aunt Jiang…” Qiu Xin called out as tears rolled down her face.
Jiang Qiu’s heart ached as she asked with concern, “What happened? Did she hurt you?”
Qiu Xin pursed her lips and looked at Xia Yan. “She scratched my hand!” She extended her slightly reddened wrist toward Jiang Qiu as she spoke.
Seeing this, Jiang Qiu frowned and glared at Xia Yan. “I asked you to take care of my son. Why did you hurt Qiu Xin?!”
Xia Yan knew that Madam Mo was someone who would always protect her child. But Xia Yan didn’t expect her to ask such a question indiscriminately.
Xia Yan didn’t intend to suppress her anger. “She came into the room last midnight and seduced my husband. Is it wrong of me to retaliate?”
Even the servants outside couldn’t help but gasp when they heard Xia Yan’s words, let alone Jiang Qiu. The new young madam of the Mo family dares to speak her mind.
Even though everyone in the Mo family residence knew of Miss Qiu’s feelings toward Young Master Mo He, Jiang Qiu rarely allowed Qiu Xin to interact with him, making it a half-hidden matter.
But Xia Yan exposed Qiu Xin before everyone, making the scene more dramatic for everyone present.
Jiang Qiu swept her gaze across the room and locked her eyes on Qiu Xin. Despite feeling guilty, Qiu Xin raised her chin and growled at Xia Yan, “You’re spewing nonsense! I never did such a thing!”

Xia Yan refuted, “So, did I see a ghost in the study last midnight? I wonder who wanted my husband to give her a necklace!”
“What necklace?” Jiang Qiu furrowed her eyebrows as she looked at Qiu Xin, who shamefully lowered her head.
If Xia Yan hadn’t mentioned the necklace, Jiang Qiu might have thought she was spreading rumors.
“I-I didn’t ask for it, Aunt Jiang! I only mentioned the necklace to Mo He by accident.” Qiu Xin said as she dared not face Jiang Qiu or Mo He.
“Is that so?” Jiang Qiu looked at Mo He with a questioning gaze.
