Upon hearing these words, Xu Qiaoqiao felt as though her heart was being squeezed.
She tightened her back, ready like a warrior about to charge, just waiting for a command from Sweet to rush to the Hu family home and take her away.
In a soft voice, she asked, "Sweet, I'm coming right away, wait for me."
As soon as the words fell, she suddenly heard a female voice coming from the other end. The voice seemed to come from a distant place and was so indistinct that she could barely make out what it was saying: "Sweet…"
Immediately, Sweet called out, "Mom, I'm here."
Then, she quietly said into the phone, "Sister Chuchu, I, I was just impulsive, when there's a chance, I'll call you again."
With that, she hung up the phone.
Xu Qiaoqiao listened to the "beep beep beep" from the phone, anxiety flooding her.
She couldn't sit still in the car, yet from Sweet's tone, it seemed like she had been feeling suffocated for a long time and was seeking relief.
