1033. Chapter 1033: Heart-Wrenching Worry 28

I could only keep my anger bottled up inside, that damned Liu Xi……

After Liu Xi left, Lao Ma came in, and I knew Lao Ma would surely let me go out to eat.

"Xuanxuan, what are you doing? Why aren't you eating?" Lao Ma asked as soon as she stepped one foot inside.

"Lao Ma, I don't want to eat now; when I came back, I got hungry and ate a lot. I'll eat later when I'm hungry." I said again, lying.

"Really?" Lao Ma looked at me with doubtful eyes and asked.

Suddenly I felt truly sorry toward Lao Ma, hoping that when I grow up I will properly filial to Lao Ma.

I believe Shangguan Yun will surely also follow me in being filial to Lao Ma.

I nodded sincerely and said, "Well, of course—am I supposed to stay hungry? Others say they fear not being full; am I not allowed to be hungry?" I said playfully to Lao Ma.

Lao Ma surely also thought my words made sense, so she smiled and said, "Alright, then I'll go eat first. If you get hungry, remember to eat; don't ruin your health over studying." After saying that, Lao Ma left.

Watching Lao Ma's great back.

Sigh, how pitiful the hearts of parents everywhere.

Being alone in the room with nothing to do, I called Afang again.

After a long while, Afang finally picked up; after picking up, Afang seemed to be outside, a bit noisy.

"Xuanxuan? Anything wrong?" Afang asked as soon as she answered the phone.

"What could possibly be happening? How did your inquiries about Shangguan Yun and them go?" I said somewhat dejectedly.

"Oh, I'm still asking, but you don't need to worry; basically everything's been confirmed—they're hiding." Afang said somewhat relaxedly.

It seems Afang doesn't have A Du's situation; she speaks so lightly, unlike me—tense, worried, afraid……

My whole heart is clenched together.

"Oh, still no news?" I said, still quite dejected.

"Hehe, if we got any news, Shangguan Yun would have called you, so you don't need to rush; really, it's fine. Look at me—I seem fine too." Afang said, laughing while comforting me.
