That’s right, it’s a provocation!
She wanted to tell her that even if she was not good enough for her son, her son insisted on marrying her, and all her opposition as a mother would be futile.
After imagining this, Xue Lan interpreted the polite smile on Xia Yumo’s face as mockery.
Her face twisted with anger, she stood up from the sofa, pointed at Xia Yumo, and said amidst Xia Yumo’s puzzled gaze:
"Xia Yumo, if you had any self-awareness, you’d leave my son on your own rather than cling to him shalessly."
Upon hearing Xue Lan use the word "shaless" to belittle her, Xia Yumo’s eyebrows furrowed slightly.
She felt that she had been keeping a certain distance from Gu Junhang recently. When did she start clinging shalessly to him?
She felt that Xue Lan’s hostility towards her was very deep, and this hostility was not ford overnight.
Perhaps, over those nine years, she made nurous attempts to separate her and Gu Junhang without success, which led to today’s resentnt?
This was the only way Xia Yumo could understand it.
As for her relationship with Gu Junhang, which she had no recollection of, Xia Yumo now viewed it more as an observer.
Having stepped out of the role of the person involved, she was even more able to understand Xue Lan’s frustrated mindset.
No one would want their son to marry soone who is completely unfit for him.
So, although Xue Lan’s words were unpleasant, she could still understand her.
She looked at Xue Lan, wanting to assertively say that she would not cling to Gu Junhang.
But thinking of Gu Junhang’s cautious approach, and the longing in his eyes to be closer with her, she couldn’t utter the words.
"I was tolerant before, since my son was bent on marrying you, I didn’t want to constantly stand in his way and harm our mother-son relationship,"
Xue Lan glorified the previous tis when she was cautioned by Gu Junhang.
"But now, Xia Yumo, look at yourself."
She pointed at her legs, her contempt making the gaze even harsher.
Xia Yumo followed her gaze to her legs, which still felt numb, and unconsciously wanted to defend herself, saying that her legs would recover.
But Xue Lan didn’t give her that opportunity.
She continued:
"You will never walk again in your life, we Gu family brings in a disabled person, do you think we should lose face like this? Or do you just want to be a shaless burden on my son?"
Xue Lan’s words were harsh, even if Xia Yumo understood Xue Lan’s love for her son, she couldn’t take it anymore.
"Mrs. Gu, I respect you as an elder, and have been tolerating your harsh words, but please have so self-respect. If you claim to be a noble lady from a wealthy family, please show so decency."
Xia Yumo’s expression grew cold.
Xue Lan was even angrier after she was challenged.
She looked at Xia Yumo coldly with a sneer:
"What? Am I wrong? Or do you still think your legs have the chance to walk again in this lifeti?"
Xia Yumo wanted to say, she could stand up originally, as long as she accelerated her rehabilitation, it was only a matter of ti.
She had been living in the orphanage since she was a child and had learned to be independent a long ti ago. She had already endured much more than this. She firmly believed that she could persist in her recovery.
And at this mont, Xue Lan, had also deciphered the aning hidden in her silence, she laughed with a sneer.
