"Lanzi, I..." Xia Jiehao despondently ruffled his hair, just as he was about to say something, he was interrupted by Mrs. Xia.
"You don't need to explain," Mrs. Xia closed her eyes briefly, then reopened them, sighing deeply and looking utterly exhausted, "You don't need to explain, I understand your difficulties. Go back, I won't take my anger out on you for this."
"Eh!" The more understanding she was, the heavier the guilt weighed on Xia Jiehao. He placed his hands on her shoulders, insisting, "Lanzi, don't take it to heart, I will definitely teach Shufang a lesson and make her come to apologize to you in person."
"No, I can't bear it," Mrs. Xia quickly waved her hands, indicating she didn't need that.
She was already thankful enough that Xia Shufang would stop causing her trouble.
"Alright, you better go back. I'm taking Bao'er and leaving this place of trouble," Mrs. Xia shook off his hand, leading Xia Ningxing away from the contentious spot.
