Huo Xuan jolted in alarm.
He couldn't see the expression on his mother's face as she drove, but he heard her almost screaming and angry voice. He knew he had blurted out something wrong.
"Mummy, it's not like that…"
Just as they reached a red light at the crossroads, Gu Qingcheng braked and turned to look at Huo Xuan.
"Baby, tell Mummy, did your dad go abroad and live in a hotel with a woman? Have the two of them been staying in the same room?"
Huo Xuan was startled, his entirely white body involuntarily curling up.
His mother looked at him with a gentle and warm smile. If she had asked him something in such a gentle manner normally, he would have happily answered her.
But at this Mummy, despite her gentle smile, he couldn't feel any warmth, only a terrifying aura enveloping him.
For the first time, he found his mother's smile terrifying.
He was so scared that he didn't dare to make eye contact with her.
