Xia Ru's Direction

Xia Wan threw herself into their arms and hugged them coquettishly. "If I really get into trouble, you'll help me out, right, Dad, Mom?"

Yan Han burst into laughter. "What are you plotting now?"

Xia Wan stepped back from the embrace and said, "I've temporarily confined Xia Ru in the sanatorium."

"What?" As expected, Xia Hai and Yan Han exclaimed in unison.

Xia Wan had wrestled with her decision for two days before feeling it necessary to inform her parents.

After all, should Xia Ru truly go missing, Xia Jiang and his wife would inevitably come inquiring sooner or later.

The reason for their inaction over the past few days was probably due to Li Jin's visit to Xia Ru, after which she likely had a major fallout with Xia Jiang and his wife, culminating in Li Jin's committal to the mental hospital.

The two parties were probably still in a standoff.
