Seeing Bai Yiran come out in loose clothing, looking drowsy, and thinking of her own pitiful daughter, Xia Lian felt a stab in her heart.
"Aunt, what's wrong? What happened?"
Since that incident, Bai Yiran hadn't seen Xia Lian. It wasn't that she held any grudge, rather it was Xia Lian who felt too embarrassed to see Bai Yiran.
After all, what Cheng Shishi did was disgraceful, and Xia Lian, as her aunt, had often received Bai Yiran's care. How could she shamelessly approach Bai Yiran after that incident?
However, the situation was different now. Xia Lian's heart ached for her daughter; hearing Cheng Shishi's heart-wrenching cries, Xia Lian couldn't bear it.
Growing up, Cheng Shishi was raised with her family's love. Although she was mischievous as a child and got a few beatings, those weren't serious matters. Which kid hasn't been beaten? But the current situation made Xia Lian anxious, she was really worried Cheng Shishi might go mad if she continued to be confined.
