When they returned to the Xiang Family home, it was already 3 p.m.
Xiang Zongyin saw Xiang Yimo and Zhong Lingling return safely, his eyes red with excitement, thinking his son who had been ill for five years had not died of his illness, but this time he might have drowned. He truly did not expect them to come back alive.
The others in the Xiang Family also came over to express their concern and greetings.
Among the crowd, all the other Xiang Family members were present except for Liu Lin, who probably used her pregnancy as an excuse not to come out to greet them even though she knew they would be returning.
But it didn't matter, seeing Liu Lin just made one feel nauseated anyway; sooner or later, Zhong Lingling would confront Liu Lin to get some clarity about last night's events.
"Dad, I'm going back to Jingxiang Pavilion first!" Xiang Yimo said to Xiang Zongyin.
