Lu Zijia told her mother that she was going to take care of a sick friend and that she would come home in a couple of days. She asked her not to get worried.
"Jia…"
Seeing her daughter leaving, Du Xiangjun could not help but stop her, asking her what was hidden inside her heart for a long time. She did not feel very assured.
"Jia, could you please tell me what on earth happened last night?"
"Did the mistress do something to you behind my back? Did she?"
"Tell me, if she did do something terrible to you, I will take revenge for you even if it means sacrificing my life!"
Du Xiangjun's voice was so full of fear that she herself could not tell what she was feeling.
With her daughter's hands in hers, she held a tight grip on them.
Lu Zijia knew that she had to tell Du Xiangjun what happened; otherwise, she would have all kinds of weird thoughts attacking her head.
