Aunt Wu almost blurted those words out.

However, meeting Tang Li's mocking gaze, Aunt Wu remembered her status as a servant and swallowed the mockery that came to her lips, turning back to the kitchen and, standing behind the door, spat in the direction of the dining room.

"Aunt Wu, what's wrong?" asked the nanny who was cooking porridge, turning her head to ask quietly.

Aunt Wu glanced outside the kitchen door and deliberately raised her voice: "Some people are ungrateful, truly thinking they can take over the nest like a dove usurping a magpie's nest, not even considering their own background!"

Her words, neither direct nor relevant, didn't affect Tang Li's breakfast mood.

She calmly ate most of her sandwich.

Just then, a panicked scream from Lai Yuaner erupted from upstairs.

The peace of the entire Lai Family villa was shattered!

Urgent footsteps came from the staircase.

Wearing a white court lace nightgown, sweet and girlish, Lai Yuaner stepped on the dark coffee colored stair treads with her delicate white feet, her round and playful toes resembling those of a princess just awakened from a nightmare in a fairy tale.

On the second floor, Lai Wenyan came out of the bedroom with his robe belt tied.

Ouyang Qian followed closely behind him.

Lai Wenyan frowned and said, "Making such a fuss early in the morning, what's all this about?"

Despite his words, he wasn't really upset.

Seeing her parents, Lai Yuaner's lips quivered, "The dress I wore for my coming-of-age ceremony has disappeared."

"Dresses don't grow legs, could it have just walked away on its own?"

Ouyang Qian, with her long black curls and wearing a light pink silk nightgown, looked enchanting. Although she was in her forties with well-maintained, fair skin, delicate facial features, she appeared to be barely in her thirties.

Hearing her mother tease her, Lai Yuaner's eyes reddened with grievance: "I originally hung the dress in the closet, but when I slid the door open just now, I found only the hanger hanging there!"

Tang Li picked up a glass of milk and took a sip.

Indifferent to the commotion unfolding on the staircase.

But who would have known—

Lai Yuaner turned her head and immediately noticed Tang Li in the dining room.

In almost an instant, their eyes locked in anger.

Lai Yuaner charged down from the staircase into the dining room and directly accused Tang Li: "Did you steal my dress?"

"Yuanyuan!" Ouyang Qian reprimanded: "That's enough. Ah Li is your sister!"

"I only have one sister!" Lai Yuaner retorted, "My sister is Lai Shengxia, currently on vacation in Dubai with her newly betrothed fiance. As for the one sitting in front of me, she's nothing but a fake, a total impostor!"

With that, she turned to Tang Li and sneered, "And an impostor who's also a drama queen at that!"

"Yuanyer, you've crossed the line!" Compared to Lai Wenyan, Ouyang Qian looked more displeased: "How have I taught you all these years?"

Tears welled up in Lai Yuaner's eyes as she looked at her mother and accused: "You always tell me to give in to her! Last night, she pushed me into the swimming pool, and later when you were in the garden, she slapped me. I wanted to tell Dad, but you wouldn't let me. Even though I am your daughter, you always protect her, and time and again you make me swallow my pride for her sake!"

"Yuanyuan, watch your language!" Ouyang Qian couldn't help but stop her daughter.

At that moment—

Old Madam Lai appeared, supported by a maid: "In this house, who dares to make my granddaughter swallow her pride?"

Her piercing gaze swept over her son and daughter-in-law, landing directly on Tang Li: "As long as I live for one more day, no one can humiliate my precious granddaughter!"
