章 420: Chapter 420: Don't Meet Until It's Dark

Just as Tong Yao arrived in the courtyard, she heard someone calling her from upstairs. Looking up, she saw it was Wang Xia standing there. She called out to Tong Yao.

"Yaoyao, wait for me!"

With that, she turned around and ran downstairs. Not long after, she was in front of Tong Yao, panting as she spoke: "Yaoyao, it's almost New Year, where are you going with all these things you're carrying?"

"I'm going to stay at my mom's house for a few days." Tong Yao had a good impression of Wang Xia, and since Wang Xia had helped her in the past, she engaged in small talk with her despite feeling a bit down.

"Is it because of your mother-in-law? I heard your mother-in-law drank rat poison this morning and had to be rushed to our hospital." Wang Xia was straightforward, and could never hold back. She detested circumlocution.
