On the side, Wu Xue found herself embroiled in a spirited conversation with her mother. "Mom! Can't this wait? I'm in the middle of something," she exclaimed, a hint of frustration in her voice.
Her mother's voice crackled over the phone, laced with concern, "Xuexue, why are you being so mean with me? Tell me, are you with a man?"
Initially, her mother had called to ensure her daughter's well-being during the bad weather, but the tone of the conversation had taken an unexpected turn.
Wu Xue let out an exasperated sigh, casting a quick glance at Zhang Wei. "Yes, I'm with my boyfriend. Can we discuss this later? I'm a bit occupied right now," she replied, impatience creeping into her tone.
"No! No! Wait!" Her mother's voice hurried and worried, "Did you just say you're with your boyfriend?"
"..."
Wu Xue was left momentarily speechless.
Did her mother genuinely believe she was an eternal Sheng Nu?
