Was it just a coincidence that Huo's mother called her back for dinner, or was she using Ranran as a shield?
Ye Ranran gave One a quick glance, surreptitiously signaling with her eyes.
"Call her 'Mom,'" Huo's father led Xia Yi to Huo's mother.
"Mom," Xia Yi said in a tiny voice.
"I don't deserve your 'Mom,'" Huo's mother sneered, "What is it now? Aren't you afraid I have ulterior motives?"
"You wouldn't be thinking of going back on your word, would you?" Huo's father's face darkened.
"What now? You're allowed to regret and I'm not?"
Huo's father was about to scold her when Ye Ranran quickly interjected, "Mom, hold back a little, Dad, don't blame Mom. You did go too far with what you said, and you haven't even apologized to her yet."
