C48 My Mom Is Not That Kind of Person!

Shen Geyao's mother is actually a hostess! Oh my gosh, that's terrifying!

The girls covered their mouths, utterly shocked. They looked at Shen Geyao as if she were some kind of outcast. They pretended to feel sorry for her, but it was all disdain and scorn.

How could a woman from such a background catch Young Master Hao's eye? It's unbelievable! Most of the girls here were aiming for Ninth Master, but Young Master Hao was also incredibly handsome and charming.

Seeing a handsome guy with a woman of lower status stirred up a bit of resentment in everyone. After all, if they couldn't win over Ninth Master, landing Young Master Hao would be a rare stroke of luck. But now, this path was blocked by this woman!

"Yuqi, how did someone like her slip past your family's strict security?"

A daughter of a hostess is dirty all over. Who knows if she was born with some disease?

"Hey, Yuqi, I heard that a leopard can't change its spots. Do you think she'll be as low as her mother? What if—"

Suddenly, there was a loud slap, and a clear handprint appeared on the girl's face.

"Ah!" The girl screamed, clutching her face, staring at Shen Geyao in disbelief.

She hit her! This lowly woman actually dared to hit her!

"What gives you the right to hit someone?" the girl immediately started crying, "Help! Somebody help! She's trying to kill me!"

Two security guards rushed over, but seeing that it was Young Master Hao's girlfriend, neither dared to approach.

"Yuqi, I'm your friend. She hit me, and by doing so, she's disrespecting you. Aren't you angry?"

Seeing that Liang Yuqi wasn't reacting, the girl hastily added, "She doesn't respect you at all!"

Liang Yuqi was actually stunned by Shen Geyao's slap. She never expected that in their family, someone from outside would dare to make a move.

Now coming to her senses, she raised her hand, ready to strike Shen Geyao.

Shen Geyao sidestepped easily, avoiding the blow.

Liang Yuqi's face turned red with anger. "Shen Geyao, are you crazy? How dare you hit my friend!"

As for the others, even though Liang Yulu was her sister, Liang Yuqi never let herself suffer a loss, so she didn't plan to intervene.

Liang Yuqi had the numbers on her side; how could she be afraid of just one Shen Geyao?

As for Liang Yueyin, she was even less likely to get involved. Although she and Liang Yuqi appeared to be friends, it was all superficial. She didn't care about Liang Yuqi's well-being.

Of course, if the two ended up fighting and it alarmed their grandparents, leading to both being kicked out, that would be the best outcome!

Shen Geyao's face burned with embarrassment after missing a slap aimed at Yuqi.

Yuqi sneered, "This is the Liang family home. You think you can just do whatever you want here?"

"My mom isn't like that," Shen Geyao replied, meeting her gaze with unwavering confidence, showing no hint of insecurity.

Yuqi scoffed, "Your mom's a lowlife. If she wasn't working as a hostess, how else would she have ended up with your dad?"

Yuqi knew quite a bit about Shen Geyao's family background. Anyone trying to get close to the Liang family, especially women, was always thoroughly investigated.

"You have no standing in the Shen family because of your background. Your mom's trash, and so are you!"

"Shut up!" Shen Geyao's eyes blazed with anger as she raised her hand, ready to charge at Yuqi.

She couldn't hold back. Even if everyone called her a wild child, she couldn't endure this! They could insult her, bully her, even lay hands on her. But they could never insult her mother!

Though she had never met her mom, in her heart, her mother was sacred and beyond reproach.

"Shen Geyao, you want to fight again?" Yuqi recalled the injury on her hand and wasn't eager for another confrontation.

"Shen Geyao is trying to hit me! Someone, quick! Stop her!"

Two security guards nearby finally seemed to realize what was happening and rushed over, restraining Shen Geyao.

Liang Yuqi, quick on her feet, took advantage of the moment when Shen Geyao was held by the guards. She stepped forward and delivered two sharp slaps across Shen Geyao's face.

The guards felt a bit guilty for Miss Shen. After all, anyone would lose their temper if their mother was humiliated like that. However, Liang Yuqi was a true member of the Liang family, while Shen Geyao, though brought home by Young Master Hao as his girlfriend, was still an outsider until they married.

There was no question about whose side they were on.

After the two slaps, Liang Yuqi still wasn't satisfied. She raised her hand to deliver a third and fourth. But this time, her hand was caught mid-air.

Her wrist was gripped tightly, and she cried out in pain, "Ouch, it hurts! Who dares to touch me? Let go!"

"Are you planning to hit me too?" A deep voice declared, brimming with anger.

The man's eyes were dark, filled with a chilling intensity.

The sudden noise startled the girls nearby, causing them to step back, distancing themselves from the commotion. Even Liang Yuqi's friends hurriedly retreated, unwilling to stand by her side.

"Brother Hao?" Liang Yuqi finally snapped out of it. Her wrist still throbbed with pain, making her wince. "Brother Hao, it was that awful woman who started it! She hit first, ask anyone here if you don't believe me."

The girls around them nodded in agreement, and one, tears streaming down her face, stepped forward. "She hit me, Mr. Hao, look at my face?"

"What do I have to do with you? Why should I look at your face?" Liang Xinghao didn't even spare her a glance. Known for his usual grace and elegance, it was shocking to hear him speak so harshly to a girl.

Everyone felt a shiver run through them; this time, Mr. Hao was truly angry. With him here, who would dare disrespect his girlfriend?

The security guards quickly released Shen Geyao, not daring to touch her again. But Liang Yuqi, still fuming, shouted, "She started it! Why are you—ouch, it hurts!"

In a flash, before even Liang Xinghao could react, Shen Geyao's hand landed on Liang Yuqi's face with two sharp slaps. "These two slaps are for you!" Shen Geyao said coldly, stepping back, even distancing herself from Liang Xinghao.

Although he seemed to be there to help her, Shen Geyao wasn't sure if Liang Xinghao would be upset since she had just hit his cousin right in front of him. She was never the type to suffer in silence or swallow her pride. If she was wronged, she would make sure to settle the score!
