Xu Ke had never felt time move so slowly; now, he felt like he was living a lifetime every day.
Even though Xu Duo appeared to be handling documents, he was extremely nervous.
Sweat beads were constantly forming on his forehead, and nobody knew what was truly going on in his mind.
About ten minutes later, Wang Cuixia finally strolled in from outside.
Seeing his mother, Xu Ke felt relieved, as if seeing a savior.
He had never felt such an urgent need to see his mother as he did now.
"Mom, you're finally back."
Xu Ke's anxious appearance took Wang Cuixia by surprise.
"What's going on, son? Why were you so urgent in calling me back?"
Xu Ke's voice was very soft, aiming not to catch Xu Duo's attention.
"Mom, look at Xu Duo, what's wrong with him? Ever since I came in, his state has been down. I said a couple of words to him, and he became like this."
While speaking, Xu Ke cautiously gestured towards Xu Duo behind him.
