Chapter 86: Chapter 86

Author's POV:

"Mom, how come I've never met your brother before? And what does he do for a living?" Song Yangyao asked, her brow furrowed in confusion.

Chen Xinyi whirled on her daughter, eyes flashing with irritation. "Shut up with your dumb questions! All you need to know is that he will figure out a way to get us out of this mess." 

Yangyao recoiled at her mother's sharp tone but remained silent, sensing there was much more her dear mother was keeping secret. An hour trickled by with agonizing slowness as Chen Xinyi paced the holding cell like a caged panther, leaving Yangyao to nurse her injuries in the corner.
