Yang Susu was already somewhat tired halfway through the banquet. She had never liked these social gatherings, and only agreed to attend because Xia An'an wanted to have it. She didn't want to go against her daughter's wishes.
Xia Wanwan noticed her discomfort and said, "Mom, if you're tired, shall I take you upstairs to rest in a room?"
Yang Susu nodded in agreement and instructed Xia Zhenghong to take care of the guests.
"I'll accompany you upstairs," Xi Muchen said.
"There's no need, I'll go with Mom. I'll come back down in a bit," Xia Wanwan declined Xi Muchen's offer. She had something she wanted to discuss with Yang Susu. "You wait for me downstairs. I'll go up with Mom and come back down soon."
Inside the presidential suite of the 999 hotel, Xia Wanwan looked at Yang Susu sitting in front of her and said, "Mom, there's something I need to speak with you about."
"What is it?" Yang Susu asked with a smile, a hint of confusion in her expression. "Why so serious?"
