Xia Chun had not anticipated that Shen Xi would show no mercy at all, and she could not bear it any longer.
Her voice suddenly rose as she exclaimed, "So, everything that's happening to Gu Ning now is your doing, isn't it? You deliberately want to make her suffer, don't you? You heartless and wicked woman! If I had known what kind of person you were back when you were younger, I would have drowned you!"
Shen Xi's eyes darkened slightly, and she retorted loudly, "Gu Ning's current predicament is of her own making and has nothing to do with me. I didn't force her to get involved with those men, I didn't force her to hurt someone else's hand, and I certainly didn't make her humiliate an innocent girl in front of her mother. She deserves to face the consequences of the law!"
