Xuexue sneered in disbelief, considering she had beaten up Auntie Sun, who had long since hated her to the bone. How could she bring over sweet soup for her? There must be a catch.

"My father's face isn't worth a dime," Xuexue couldn't help but mutter under her breath.
"Xuexue."
"Hmm."
"Go on, go see your father."
Xuexue knew she hadn't truly let go of her adoptive father and didn't want to be disobedient to her, so she reluctantly agreed.
"Fine, I'll go," she replied, her tone nonchalant.
Madam Xie said, "While it's still not dark, hurry up, your mother is waiting for you to come back for dinner."
