Hearing Xia Chen's conjecture, a sigh escaped Xia Wan's lips. "Brother, Xia Ru is doing fine now."
"She was visited by Eldest Uncle and others just a couple of days ago." Xia Wan's voice carried a reassuring tone. "I'll keep a vigilant eye on Xia Ru, ensuring her safety until our parents are found."
Xia Chen's lips pressed tightly, betraying a struggle to contain his emotions.
Xia Wan, observing him, exhaled softly. "Brother, don't fret. I assure you, Dad and Mom are out of harm's way for now."
"I'm on it – I'll locate them as soon as I can!" Her promise was fervent, determined. "You wouldn't want them worrying over you, right?"
"Isn't there something I can do?" Xia Chen's expression was a mix of frustration and determination. "Even Little Feng is contributing. What about me?"
"You're aware how much our parents are pinning their hopes on your success," Xia Wan said, smiling encouragingly.
