Meng Sushan wanted to say something else but was stopped by Xia Xibei's words, and her face went white.
"She is afraid to come over to see me, right?" Xia Xibei looked at her with a calm expression. "If you're really that close to her, then you should know the relations.h.i.+p between us."
Meng Sushan's mouth moved, but she could not even speak.
Of course she knew the relations.h.i.+p between Xia Xibei and Dong Shulan.
Xia Xibei was Dong Shulan's daughter, who she had thought was her biological mother, but only later did she find out that Xia Xibei had been found by Dong Shulan.
Or rather, Xia Xibei was bought as a child.
In this case, it would be ironic to say how close the two were.
There was also one important point: Dong Shulan did not care about Xia Xibei anyway.
Meng Sushan certainly understood the situation here. However, she kept thinking that the two of them were once mother and daughter, so there should be some feelings, right?
"Do you think that we are still mother and daughter?"
Xia Xibei saw what she was thinking, and curved the corner of her mouth sarcastically.
Meng Sushan's heart jumped. How could she see what she was thinking?
Xia Xibei lightly laughed, "But do you know how I grew up?"
Without waiting for Meng Sushan's answer, she spoke.
"I grew up by my grandmother's side, and I spent no more than a hundred hours with Dong Shulan."
Xia Xibei's eyes narrowed slightly and she smiled, but the smile didn't reach her eyes.
"When I was just a few years old, she got divorced and started a new family. I was more of a liability. Since then, she'd given me just three hundred yuan a month."
"At least she gave you some money..." Meng Sushan murmured.
"Yeah, three hundred yuan is quite a lot, hah!" Xia Xibei grunted. "These three hundred were only given after my grandmother forced her. If you think three hundred is a lot, I can give it back to you now."
"No, no!" Meng Sushan hurriedly shook her head.
She could hear the threat in Xia Xibei's words.
If they really made it that clear, then she would have to leave the company.
"If it weren't for her, I would still be living a good life with my real parents..."
"But it's not like she volunteered to buy you!" Meng Sushan spoke up for Dong Shulan.
"Without the buying and selling of children, there is no killing of children. You've heard this saying, right?" Xia Xibei sneered and interrupted her words.
Meng Sushan was suddenly silent.
"It's already generous of me that I'm not blaming her. What do you think, how should I talk to her about a mother-daughter relations.h.i.+p now?" Xia Xibei looked at her intensely. "If we really want to talk about it, I think it is best to separate with her clearly. What do you think?"
Being looked at by Xia Xibei made Meng Sushan's gooseb.u.mps rise, she s.h.i.+vered and shook her head immediately, "No, no! I'll leave right now!"
She understood what Xia Xibei meant.
If she still dared to continue to make connections here, who knew what the outcome would be?
Meng Sushan hurriedly left.

As she left, Pan Yan happened to come in and watched her leave in a hurry and wondered, "Who was that?"
"An unrelated person," Xia Xibei said lightly.
"What's an unrelated person doing here?" He was a little upset. "She must be a trainee, right? Why is she bothering you? She doesn't know any manners at all!"
"Hmmm," Xia Xibei pursed her mouth and didn't say anything.
