Mai Xiaomai thought about Qiao Chutian who might be meeting Yali right now.
She sent a message to Qiao Chutian, telling him about her mother's disappearance, asking him to check if it was something done by Yali's side.
However, aside from that earlier brief message, Qiao Chutian hadn't replied at all.
It was just text, no voice, and she didn't know if someone else might have sent it pretending to be him.
Thinking of this, Mai Xiaomai started to feel extremely uneasy again.
At this moment, she felt like she was enveloped in a fog, unable to see her path forward no matter how wide she opened her eyes.
Whether it was her mother or Qiao Chutian, at least one of them should come back to her.
Worried that something might happen to the Mai parents again, Mai Xiaomai decided not to return to the Zhan family and instead stay at Jiangjing Garden to be with them.
Life is full of unpredictable meetings and partings.
