Upon seeing Meng Xiao's lack of response, Wu's mother was secretly annoyed at how composed this girl was.
After "imploring" her several more times, Wu's mother found the girl lost in thought.
This realization made Wu's mother uncomfortable, and she slackened her grip on Meng Xiao's hand. Meng Xiao took this chance to quickly withdraw her hand and step back a few paces.
"Young Miss, I implore you as an Auntie, please spare my daughter. You will have your own child someday, and you will understand a mother's heart. You can't let my daughter be locked up!" Wu's mother pitifully sobbed, hoping to step closer, but Meng Xiao avoided her.
Her arm had been pinched by Wu Yue's mother's jewellery, leaving crescent-shaped marks, and her skin had been scraped in two places. Meng Xiao, growing frustrated, silenced Wu's mother.
