Chapter 1293. Worried Sick 5
nodding, xi xiaye turned around to change her shoes on the porch before walking in.“have some tea.”when zhuang shurong saw xi xiaye’s silhouette, her face that was tense with concern eased a little. “thank you, mother.” xi xiaye sat down on the sofa aside, took the tea, and had a simple sip.
mu lingshi’s anxious voice was then heard. “sister-in-law, how’s it? haven’t you and brother sent people to search for them? how are things now? did you find them?”
her anxious voice was mixed with endless worry. mu lingshi knew ah mo well too. he would never just disappear without a word. even if he was doing some kind of mission, he would inform her beforehand so that the family would not worry, and of course, he had told her that he was going to be home soon.
“ah shi, calm down. there isn’t any news now, but with ah mo’s abilities, he’ll be fine,” xi xiaye consoled as she reached out to hold her slightly cold fingertips. “the most important thing you have to do right now is take care of yourself and your baby.”
as mu lingshi took a deep breath, her hands clenched into fists and she said in a daze, “i know. i’m just afraid…worried…he’s never been like this…”
“just trust him, okay? don’t be too worried. we’ll let you know first if there’s anything. your brother should be back in a few days’ time. it’ll be fine. sit down. i’ll go take a look in the kitchen.”
xi xiaye was about to get up when zhuang shurong pulled her back and said calmly, “it’s okay, xiaye. sit with her for a while. i’ll go manage things and make you some dishes to take them home. you don’t look too well, so rest more. these things can’t be rushed.”
“mother…”
“it’s alright. sit. i know that you probably have to go home later, but it’ll be quick,” zhuang shurong said, and then walked to the kitchen.
