As a mother, Xia Wei could catch a touch of unspeakable sorrow between Ouyang Xueqing's brows. But she had missed her daughter so much that she blamed it all on her homesickness. She cupped Ouyang Xueqing's face and ran her gaze through her daughter's face thoroughly, her eyes watery and red.
"Why are you so thin? Are you not eating well? Let me see…hmm, my daughter has grown." Xia Wei patted her head gently and frowned as she scrutinized Ouyang Xueqing's robes. "Why are you wearing this kind of clothes? You are already home so it's not necessary to pretend to be a commoner again, right?"
Xia Wei still thought that Ouyang Xueqing was just drifting around the Beast Mainland, pretending to be a commoner and lived among them. She felt heartache for her stubborn daughter and pulled her in. "Come, come. Mother doesn't know that you're coming home so there isn't any food. So, take a bath first okay? Xiao Su, please prepare the Princess' bathwater."
