At these words, Zhao Jinghai's heart sank. He turned to Zhao Huilan and scolded, "I had something to do this afternoon. You were at home, why didn't you go pick them up?"
"Didn't I just forget?" Zhao Huilan pouted, retorting, "If you can forget, can't I forget something too? Hmph, now that the biological children are here, the daughter from the first wife is naturally worthless and just an eyesore."
With that, Zhao Huilan sat down next to Wang Lianhua, as if seeking her grandmother's protection.
Seeing the house erupt into an argument the moment Zhao Nuanyang and Zhao Nuanyue returned, Wang Lianhua grew furious. "So you're back. Did you expect a welcoming party?" she sneered. "Such airs! The moment you're back, the whole house is in an uproar. A couple of troublemakers."
