This made Gu Nuan's dad realize something was wrong; his daughter didn't seem quite right either. He asked, "Nuannuan, can't you hear me talking to you?"
Hearing this, Old Madam Xiao couldn't help cutting in: "Your daughter's deaf to begin with, she can't hear. What's the point of talking to her like that?"
Gu Nuan tried to steady herself and said to her father, "I just sent him to the supermarket to buy some things. Maybe he suddenly remembered and went to the supermarket. It's fine, I'll go out and look for him."
Gu Nuan's dad had just opened his mouth to tell his daughter there was no need, but she turned and walked off, exactly like his son‑in‑law. That only made the doubt in his heart deepen.
After stepping out the door, Gu Nuan held on to the stair railing as she walked down, her mind in complete chaos.
