Xiong Jingfei immediately gave her father a polite bow, "Welcome back, father."
"Mn." Xiong Guozhi answered with a head nod towards his eldest daughter. Then he stared down at his second and third daughters, "What are the two of you doing here in the middle of the night?"
Xiong Changchang and Xiong Jiayi's body trembled, feeling the enormous pressure he was putting on their shoulders. They didn't think their father will return home today of all days.
Every single one of them knew one thing for sure. They were so dead. Now that the main head of the household is involved.
"F-f-fa-father…" Xiong Changchang stuttered, attempting to control the fear of escaping through her. "W-w-we were here to give eldest sisters our regard before the night ended."
Xiong Changchang tried standing up, but her legs almost gave out if it wasn't for the help of her right-hand maid.
