Chapter 527 -527: The Villain Sidekick
“Who is this Bai Xiao’s daughter?” Shang Feng couldn’t accept his own failure as being so miserable.
Li Chunhua glared at him. “What kind of person are you? If Bai Xiao isn’t your daughter, why should you care who her real father is? Why should I tell you? Are you being a bit too nosy for your own good?”
Her justified demeanor left no room for rebuttal, indeed, aside from Bai Xiao herself, who else had the right to ask?
Shang Feng had no response and quickly walked out with Shang Kaiwen.
The embarrassing incident that followed was yet to come.
Somebody followed the footsteps of Shang Kaiwen and her group as they left.
“Xiao, help me meet my in-laws,” Li Chunhua called out to Bai Xiao.
Bai Xiao helped Li Chunhua up. The old lady hadn’t been seen in a year! She seemed fragile, visibly older, and less like the evil hag who had mistreated her before. Although there was still an undertone of bitterness in her eyes, she just seemed old.
The strangest thing was that the old lady was actually speaking up for her.
She didn’t quite understand this world anymore.
The two of them were supposed to be enemies. The old lady had lost hope long ago that Bai Xiao would be there to take care of her in her old age, and probably didn’t expect it. Bai Xiao had no intention of playing the saintly role of returning evil with good. Shouldn’t the old lady just sell her off immediately to sever ties with the Bai Family and eliminate any threat from Bai Xiao?

What kind of situation was this?
Li Chunhua approached An Cheng and Wei Shufen. In terms of hierarchy, Li Chunhua, a woman in her seventies, ranked above them both.
They hastily rose to greet her.
“Mother-in-law, please take a seat. This long journey must have been exhausting. The wedding was arranged in a rather simple and hurried manner, so we didn’t invite you, and that is our fault,” Wei Shufen was skilled at saying the right things.
Li Chunhua glanced at Wei Shufen. She could tell that this woman was no good; after being a mother-in-law for decades, she had seen her fair share of deceptiveness.
Bai Xiao’s mother-in-law was quite a character indeed.
“Then I will presume upon my age and sit down,” Li Chunhua said, looking at An Cheng, who still appeared upright and manly.
An Zhiyuan hurried over as well. With Shang Feng gone, everyone resumed their festivities, but the atmosphere could not match the earlier warmth.
“Son-in-law, daughter-in-law, at my age, I really shouldn’t have made this taxing trip, and I know that city folks like you have many rules and I didn’t want to intrude. But that Shang looked like he had bad intentions. If I hadn’t come, I’m afraid he might have sold my niece. So I thought I must make the trip no matter what, even just to see the Capital City, it would be worth it.
“My granddaughter, I never really treated her as my own, I wasn’t kind to her, nor close, but after all, she was raised in our family. My deceased eldest son treasured her like a gem in his palm. So I’m here to offer some support, to let you know, Bai Xiao has her natal family. Her elder brother and sisters are all decent people with their own jobs, and they certainly won’t burden the young couple. However, Commander An, if you ever think of bullying Bai Xiao, her elder brother won’t let you off the hook!”
She had indeed come to offer support.
Bai Xiao was nearly breathless from the dramatic turn of events.
This must be a scriptwriter going wild with the storyline.
Li Chunhua was supposed to be the antagonist, or at the very least, a supporting character who should have died off long ago. Yet here she was, defending Bai Xiao – had she lost her mind?
