Fortunately, after a short wait, she heard a knock at the door.
Ye Shuhua felt relieved and looked at Xia Benjun and the Xia family matriarch with an ingratiating glance, "Her dad and mom, I just said Panpan must be back soon, right? I'll go and open the door."
Then she hustled to the door.
As soon as the door opened and seeing it was Xia Chu standing there, Ye Shuhua's smile bloomed, "Panpan, you're finally back. Why so late, was there a traffic jam? Come in quickly, we were all waiting for you to eat... Eh, where's Huo Xiyao, wasn't he supposed to come back with you?"
Xia Chu hadn't returned to this so-called home in over half a year.
But standing at the door now, there was no sense of warmth, relaxation, or joy from returning home after a long time.
She said indifferently, "He's on a business trip and hasn't come back. Besides, he is not related to me, why should he come back with me?"
