Following the woman, Liu Xin'an sat down on the sofa and gratefully accepted the cup his aunt handed to him. After taking a sip of water, he curiously looked at her.
"Where's Mom?"
He had been inside for nearly five minutes now and still hadn't seen his own mother, which he found somewhat strange.
"Ah, your mom is in that room."
The aunt pointed to a small room that seemed like a nursery. Without any surprises, it should be his two little sisters' room.
Liu Xin'an became interested, he nervously wiped his hands on his pants, then stood up with excitement on his face.
"Can I go take a look?"
"Of course, go ahead."
Liu Xin'an got up and cautiously observed the interior of the children's room through a small crack he had pushed open in the door.
But before he could fully take in the view of the room, the door was pulled open from the inside, and then his field of vision suddenly widened.
His mother was gripping the doorknob, looking at him.
