Xia Mo didn't want to leave a bad impression on He Huizhu, so she gave a faint smile, nodded slightly to He Huizhu and He Jiarui, and went back to her friends.
Xia Zhi furrowed her brow as she sat back down, unable to hide her impatience.
"Is that your biological sister?" He Huizhu asked.
Xia Zhi pursed her lips and replied, "She's my stepsister. We're not very close."
He Jiarui glanced unintentionally in Xia Mo's direction, puckered her lips and said, "She seems quite astute, not as amiable as you, sister-in-law."
"Thanks for the compliment, little auntie," Xia Zhi replied with a smile. She didn't want to waste words on Xia Mo and quickly changed the subject.
When Xia Mo returned to her friends, they were all surprised and delighted to see He Huizhu.
"Momo, why bother looking for the Third Young Master? You should just speak directly to He Huizhu."
