Mu Siyin’s eyes widened even more, and her heart clenched tightly.
She did not understand Mother Shi’s hatred towards her.
“Is there some kind of misunderstanding between us, Auntie?”
Mu Siyin was convinced that she had never met this woman before. Did she mistake her for someone else?
“Shut up!” Mother Shi roared.
“Mom! Enough!” Shi Beiyu pulled Mu Siyin behind him as he looked at Mother Shi gloomily. “I have a right to pick who I want to date! All of you have no power to interfere with my life!”
The large building suddenly became dead silent.
Mother Shi looked at Shi Beiyu in shock. She had never imagined that her son would say something like that to her.
Behind Shi Beiyu, Mu Siyin’s heart shuddered.
She was extremely frightened now. There must be something between them that she did not know, and it did not seem like a trivial matter.
Why else would his mother look at her with such pure hatred?
What was the reason?
“Ah Yu! Did you forget…” Mother Shi’s eyes reddened as she looked at Shi Beiyu and shook her head in disbelief.
However, Shi Beiyu looked at his mother with a straight face and said with a frown, “I didn’t, but some things are best left in the past. Does it even matter what’s right and wrong anymore?”
“I don’t care!” Mother Shi’s gaze pierced with anger as she yelled.
“You must cut all ties with her today. I have to see it for myself. I forbid you from being in touch with her from this day onwards!”
Mu Siyin’s heart clenched even more, and she found herself struggling to breathe.
Has she really crossed paths with them before?
Unless… Did something happen before she was eight years old?
She really had no memories of it.
The thought about it made her anxious. Her eyes widened in shock as she held Shi Beiyu’s arm tightly.
Shi Beiyu took a few deep breaths before he looked at a furious Mother Shi. He hurled the word out effortlessly. “Impossible.”
The atmosphere was best described with a balloon. As anger grew, so did the balloon, and now, it was at the brink of explosion.
Mother Shi’s eyes darkened as she glared at how determined Shi Beiyu was and the Mu Siyin, whom he was protecting. Seeing this, she muttered, “I guess you’re all grown up now, Ah Yu.”
Mu Siyin could no longer listen to their conversation. She grabbed Shi Beiyu’s hand, strode forward, and looked into his eyes. Anxiety filled her voice. “Tell me what’s going on! Did we know each other? When did we meet? What happened?”
Mother Shi became more agitated when she heard this. “Guards! Take this woman away!”
Four muscular men dressed in black ran into the building at Mother Shi’s orders.
The bottom of Shi Beiyu’s eyes darkened, and his voice became as cold as ice. “I dare you to touch her.”
The four men stopped dead in their tracks when they heard this.
Although they worked for the Madam, they did not have the guts to touch the Young Master’s girlfriend.
Mother Shi’s chest heaved as she breathed heavily. Then, she strode forward until she was a few steps away from the couple. Glaring at Mu Siyin, she said coldly, “Let me tell you this! Even if you’ve managed to seduce my son, I’ll never approve of your relationship with him! Don’t you dare dream of entering the Shi family!”
Mu Siyin was filled with questions now. She really could not understand the reason Mother Shi was so mad with her.
“No matter what has happened in the past, our feelings towards each other are genuine, Auntie.”
Mother Shi strode forward in a fit of fury. Following that, she lifted her hands irritatedly and slapped Mu Siyin across the face with a loud ‘smack’. The woman screamed at the top of her lungs with bloodshot eyes. “What gives you the right to fall for my son?”
