Not her biological mother?!
Pei Ge had a look of surprise.
She honestly did not expect for the bubbly Qin Qitong's mother not to be related by blood!
Her beautiful stepmother was even young!
She pulled her thoughts back together and looked at the lady seated gracefully on the sofa. For some reason, she was reminded of that lass's helpless wailing.
Once more, she felt heartache for the girl.
"Auntie, may I ask where Qitong is now? I'd like to meet her."
She suppressed her shock inside and smiled at the lady.
"This… My apologies, but her father ordered not to let anyone visit her," the lady refused, shaking her head gently.
Unknown if she had gotten used to her cousin's fake smile, but she only felt disgust when Qin Qitong's stepmother smiled in the same way.
"Auntie, did she do something wrong? Why are you guys locking her up?"
She raised a brow and gave a smile that did not reach her eyes.
