Luo Xiu looked at the panicky Su Hongli, completely baffled.
What on earth could make Miss Su, who usually carried herself with such dignity and composure, this panicked?
"It's hard to imagine what could make Auntie Su so flustered."
Su Hongli shot him a glance, cursing inwardly. He really is my tormentor.
"Stop being so nonchalant, I'm talking to you about something serious!" she snapped. "Besides something involving you, what else could possibly make me this anxious?"
Luo Xiu shrugged and glanced over at Xia Chan, who was quietly licking an ice cream cone. He reached out and gently ruffled her hair. "Be a good girl, Xiaochan. Go find Sister Ningxue in the backyard and play with her."
"Mm-hm."
Xia Chan nodded vigorously, then hopped and skipped away cheerfully, the small braids Su Shenyun had made for her swaying adorably.
