Jiang Xue was very upset after being frightened by Shen Xi in the afternoon, so she immediately went home.
When she got home, Xia Chun, her mother, realised that her precious daughter was not in a good mood. She quickly arrived by her side and asked how she was with much heartache. "Xue'er, what happened? Why have you returned home? It isn't Friday yet. You look so pale. Are you not feeling well?"
Jiang Xue burst into tears upon seeing her mother. She was the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, so why was Shen Xi still a thorn in her side?"
Earlier that afternoon, she had been so frightened by Shen Xi that her legs grew weak. It was an irrational fear, unbefitting the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, and the more she thought about it, the more miserably she cried.
Xia Chun hugged her daughter, asking worriedly, "Xue'er, what's wrong? Your tears pain me, and my heart aches to see you so unhappy. Are you being bullied? Please speak to me. I'll do whatever I can to help you."
