Qiao An's words embarrassed the mistress. However, shameless people were invincible.
She immediately argued, "Qiao An, look at what you're saying. Nowadays, everyone advocates equality between men and women. No matter how old my son is, he's still my flesh and blood. He lives alone outside and we're separated. I have to worry about him every day."
Qiao An sneered. "Third Sister-in-law really has double standards. If it's your son, he has to be kept close for protection, yet your stepdaughter has to go out and become independent."
She had crushed the woman's pestering. Whatever the woman said, Qiao An would use it to against her. She lowered her head obediently and didn't speak.
Everyone was a little surprised. Qiao An had always been indifferent to matters with the Li family, much less a busybody. But today, she took the initiative to side with Ze'en. There was something mysterious about this.
