Sister Mai Na looked at the phone exasperatedly. "F*ck you, Li Lei!"
In her anger, she almost threw her phone on the floor.
What she did not know was that behind the guest room door, Xia Ling had been secretly listening to everything. Sister Mai Na's anger and helplessness, the concerned chatter of her family in the living room, the laughter…
Suddenly, she had a tight feeling in her chest. Everything was far from bearable.
Xia Ling found a few sets of clothes from the closet, changed into them, and left a note for Sister Mai Na telling her not to worry. Taking the chance when everyone was occupied, she secretly left the Mai household.
The streets were cold and bare. However, a slight aroma of food filled the air, and firecrackers could be heard.
The residential area was lit up isolated islands above the calm night ocean.
