This news was like an atomic bomb.
All the high-society ladies were stunned.
They looked closely.
Indeed, Bao Jiaren and this woman looked somewhat similar, and since Bao Jiaren had no mother, it was very likely this woman gave birth to her.
The aristocratic mothers became overwhelmed with maternal instincts, quietly discussing among themselves.
"Children still need their mothers!"
"No matter how good a stepmother is, she can't compare to a real mother."
"Miss Su's marriage, I'm afraid, is now shrouded in mystery."
...
Amid the whispering, Mrs. Yin softly chuckled.
Su Ruanruan, this is the consequence of your disobedience.
This gossip could tear you apart.
The first to react was Bao Jiaren.
She was initially jealous of Ruanruan, but then this inexplicable woman claimed to be her mother.
She wouldn't have it.
Bao Jiaren, dressed in a princess dress with her hair in bouncy curls,
walked up to the girl, sizing her up with a vivacious air.
