Chu Zhiqin sighed, patted Xi Xi's hand on her shoulder, and said, "If it were just your dad, of course I wouldn't be worried, but because of the household registration issue, he might be having three kids right now..."

“You know your grandma’s health, and your uncle is an idle and lazy person. Your aunt is a good person, but she always nitpicks over small things. When she gets angry, she just abandons her responsibilities and doesn’t care about anything… No matter how you look at it, your dad will suffer the most in the end!”

“What’s worse is that none of the three of them can drive, and your dad has trouble walking; his condition always flares up on rainy days. I’m really scared…”

Chu Zhiqin launched into a long, uninterrupted narration, as if her tense nerves had finally been released and relaxed after completing a dungeon quest.

Humans are such strange creatures; once they have free time, they are especially prone to overthinking.

Seeing Chu Zhiqin's increasingly agitated emotions, Xi Xi had no choice but to hug her mother tightly.

She knew all too well what Ms. Chu was feeling at that moment.

Because of similar trivial matters in her past life, she had been plunged into deep anxiety countless times.

But in this life, she has come to a realization.

What's the use of being heartbroken over things you can't change? Instead of wallowing in worry, focus on the little things you can do right now and do them to the best of your ability.

Regardless, the most urgent task facing the mother and daughter at this moment is to do everything possible to get in touch with Xi's father as soon as possible.

Unfortunately, achieving this goal is easier said than done! The current situation is fraught with difficulties, leaving people feeling helpless.

Just as the mother and daughter were frowning and racking their brains, an unexpected turning point appeared.
