Xu Yulan wouldn't stand for that. "What do you mean I'm clumsy with words? How exactly do you want me to phrase it?
"Should I say you finally got what you wanted? Even if she's just the mother of a lowly concubine, you can still openly call her 'Mother' now."
"You're spouting nonsense. Be careful, or I'll smack you," Gu Kaichen said, his eyes turning red. Having her as his mother-in-law was one thing, but if she became his stepmother, she would be his enemy.
Xu Yulan wasn't intimidated by him in the slightest. She puffed out her chest and took a step forward. "Come on, hit me! Let everyone see how you don't even respect your lawful wife now that you have your stepmother and mother-in-law backing you up."
Gu Kaichen took a deep breath. Before anyone could react, he slapped her across the face.
SMACK.
Everyone fell dead silent.
