Gu'er frowned slightly at Chen Fengjiao's words. 'Lin Sui'er has fallen in with a gang of punks?'
Lin Sui'er was seventeen, and she'd be a grown woman of eighteen after the New Year. It was about time for her to start dating. Gu'er had originally assumed that once Lin Sui'er turned eighteen, she would quit school, find a job, and then start dating or something. She never imagined her sister would get mixed up with a gang of punks. 'What is she thinking?'
"Gu'er, I've been wanting to tell you, but... but I was too scared. I was afraid that if you knew, you'd tell your father. You know his temper. I was worried he'd get anxious, and since he can't come back, he might worry himself sick over it. That's why I didn't dare to say anything."
Chen Fengjiao was now pinning all her hopes on her eldest daughter.
"How bad has it gotten?"
Gu'er understood what her mother was thinking. Apart from her fear of their father's anxiety, she was also trying to cover for Lin Sui'er.
