The Hunter Appears as the Hunted

Inside the Jiang family villa, Jiang Yuan angrily slammed her wine glass onto the floor and gritted her teeth, "Jiang Guo, you've gone too far!"

"Oh my, my dear daughter, what's gotten into you?" At that moment, an elegant and still attractive woman descended from the second floor. She gently held Jiang Yuan's hand with concern. "Yuan, if you have any grievances, let them out. Why hurt yourself like this? Look at your beautiful hand; your nails are all red from your own grip. It breaks your mother's heart!"

In an instant, when Jiang Yuan saw the elegant woman, a mistiness welled up in her eyes, and she said with a sense of grievance, "Mom!"

The elegant woman, named Shao Yan, was Jiang Yuan's biological mother, Jiang Guo's stepmother, and a former lover of Jiang's father during his late wife's lifetime.

Shao Yan gently blew on Jiang Yuan's palm to soothe it and then asked, "Tell me, what happened this time? Why is my precious daughter so angry?"
