Auntie Jiang looked tense, her hands tightly clutching her clothes.
She was an honest and straightforward person, unaccustomed to such situations.
"Auntie Jiang, please don't ask anymore, okay?"
Qiao En got up, limping toward the bathroom. She closed the door and at the sink, washed off the facial mask from her face.
She had disappeared from Rong City for less than a month when Zhou Jin'an's men arrived in Gu Yuan in search of her.
Qiao En knew that Zhou Jin'an wouldn't rest until he found her.
There would surely be a second and third wave of people coming to look for her.
This time, she had narrowly escaped, but what about the next time?
Her mind was in turmoil, yet the more chaotic it became, the more she needed to calm down.
Qiao En stared at her reflection in the mirror for a long time. Suddenly, a plan began to take shape in her mind.
After a while, she pulled open the room door and prepared to come out.
Auntie Jiang blocked her again at the door.
