Laying Low for the Right Moment

Huh? Su Yijia had taken a couple of steps towards the small house, but immediately turned back around. Her gaze kept shifting between Xia Weiguo and Qin's father and mother. The overly eager anticipation on their faces made the Qin family members wish they could give her a good slap and tell her to stay away.

But there was nothing they could do about it, just wishful thinking on their part.

" Weiguo, what do you mean by that? We're having trouble understanding," Qin's father asked cautiously, sporting a forced smile that was more pitiful than crying.

"Last time, I told you all to quit your jobs, and the Qin and Wei families did just that. But what about you?" Xia Weiguo's question was like sharp arrows piercing into them.

Qin's father and mother felt like they were suddenly trapped in an icy cavern.

"Why should we quit our jobs?" Qin's mother still sounded resentful.

Xia Weiguo didn't answer but simply stared at them with cold and emotionless eyes.
