"Grandpa, we have to go now, and we might not come back for dinner," Qiao Xiaren greeted. The old man probably sensed that something had happened and nodded in understanding.
Just as she was leaving, Qiao Xiaren ran into Bai Qiuqing, who had just returned.
Bai Qiuqing's complexion had changed a lot, and her mood fluctuated upon seeing Qiao Xiaren. "Xiaren, stop there! Why didn't you answer my calls in M Country?"
Qiao Xiaren stopped in her tracks and replied indifferently, "It wasn't a good time to talk in M Country. I thought I'd discuss it with you after returning. I'm busy today; if it's not urgent, let's talk another day."
She was about to leave but was stopped by Bai Qiuqing grabbing her arm, their eyes meeting coldly.
"What's so urgent that you can't even spare a few minutes for me? You really don't regard me as your aunt, do you? What have I done to deserve your constant antagonism?"
Watching Bai Qiuqing become agitated again, the old man chided her, feeling vexed.
