"Before..." Gu Qiaomei hadn't finished her sentence when suddenly she heard the sound of Parking Outside.
Her face changed abruptly, brushing aside Chi Ya's request for an Explanation, she pushed her indoors, "Go inside first. Xiao Ya, listen to me, no matter what you hear later, you must not come out, understand?"
"Mom, what's happening? Who is here?"
"Don't ask! Just do as I say! No matter what happens later, you're not allowed to come out! Do you hear me?" Gu Qiaomei's face was full of urgency, as she harshly reprimanded while desperately pushing her into the adjacent room, "Remember, you must not come out! If you do... then don't call me mom anymore!"
Chi Ya had never seen her so unsettled; she was so scared that she nodded.
