Huo Sijia made sure she was out of Madame Lu's line of sight before she leaned in to whisper to Xia Chu, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I'm fine. So, there's no need to tell Brother, and you don't have to worry about me. I'll face what comes next on my own, I'll walk my own path, okay?"
Xia Chu now saw her in a new light.
She whispered softly, "I was really a bit worried before, afraid that you would foolishly suffer in silence, and I feared you would compromise for Yiming's sake. But now I'm not worried anymore, you are fully capable of handling everything. Madame Lu is also a smart woman, so I don't think something like this will happen again."
Huo Sijia nodded, "I also believe Auntie Lu is a smart woman. A mother who truly loves her son wouldn't bear to make things difficult for him. Plus, now that I'm so adorable, she will come to love me for his sake—it's just a matter of time."
