JI XIUYING was washing a pot when she heard the door opening. She glanced back and saw her daughter walking briskly towards her room. No, it's almost like she was running at that pace.
"Jiao Jiao, have they gone?" she asked.
Her question made Yu Jiao stopped. But because she kept her head down, Ji Xiuying couldn't see her expression.
"Yes, they already left," Yu Jiao answered before she could ask if there was something wrong. "Mom, I'll go to my room first. I-I'm kind of tired. Oh, and just leave some of the dirty dishes there. I'll wash them tomorrow."
Ji Xiuying wasn't able to react because Yu Jiao quickly went to her room before she could. She glanced at the closed door of her daughter's room. Was it just her imagination or was Yu Jiao's ear tips red for some reason?
