Hands off

Everyone turned in the direction of this voice after it rang out.

When Duanmu Ming Xue saw the person that this voice belonged to, there was a complicated look that appeared on her face.

It was a good thing that there was a cloak that was hiding her face, or else everyone would have seen this reaction from her.

As for why she had this reaction, there was only one explanation.

It was naturally because she knew the person that this voice belonged to.

It was hard for her not to know this person because…this was the person that gave birth to her.

The voice belonged to the Second Madame of the Duanmu Family, the second wife of the Duanmu Family Head.

She was Duanmu Ming Xue's mother.

Ever since what had happened with Duanmu Ming Xue, she had lost the favour of the family head and had lost most of the privilege that she had before.
