Chapter 384: Didn’t Your Foster Parents Tell You They Moved?
Lu Xia knew who the lady was and a look of disappointment flashed in her eyes.
The neighbor glanced at Lu Xia but did not recognize her right away. Instead, she retrieved her keys and opened the door to enter. Just as she was about to close it, she paused.
She looked at Lu Xia and noticed that she was waiting for someone. She asked the girl. “Are you waiting for the Huo family?”
Lu Xia turned her head, looked at the neighbor, and nodded.
“Hey. Are you a relative of theirs? They moved away recently, so no one’s living here anymore,” said the neighbor.
Lu Xia opened her eyes wide. “Don’t they live here anymore?”
The neighbor instantly recognized Lu Xia’s voice. “Are you Xiaxia?”
Lu Xia nodded. She had only one thought on her mind as she said, “Auntie, you said my parents moved. Do you know where they have shifted to?”
The auntie next door shook her head. “I don’t know.” She paused and added casually. “Didn’t your parents tell you when they moved?”
Lu Xia clenched her hands. Fortunately, she was wearing a mask. Otherwise, her neighbor would have seen the uneasy look on her face. Her throat went dry as she replied. “Maybe they forgot to tell me.”
The lady had caught wind of the fact that the Huo family’s little girl was swapped at birth but did not know what happened in detail. However, she found it odd that no one told their foster daughter that they moved.
“Why don’t you call and ask your parents?” suggested the auntie.
Lu Xia choked sadly before she nodded and thanked her.
The next-door neighbor shut the door before long.
Lu Xia leaned against the wall and squatted down somewhat limply. She hugged her knees as the neighbor’s words kept going through her mind.
Her foster parents had moved.
However, they did not even bother to call or text her with the new address.
Lu Xia bit her lip hard. Her heart was filled with hatred for Song Ning and Huo Jinyan.
Even if they were not keen to tell her about the new residence, shouldn’t they have at least informed her about their move?
Did it not cross their minds that the daughter they had for over ten years would visit them? Were they trying to sever ties with her by moving without saying a word?
Lu Xia suddenly felt that she had become a laughingstock.
Her biological parents only treated her well because she was a celebrity and had good grades at school.
As for her foster parents, they bought a luxury car and moved because Huo Yao came home while their foster daughter became nothing in their eyes.
Lu Xia pulled out her phone and checked it again. She did not receive a single call or even a text message.
Her lips curved up in self-deprecation. She slowly pushed herself up against the wall and walked up to the lift.

Song Ning and Huo Yao did not go straight home after Song Ning picked her up from school. Instead, they headed to a restaurant for dinner.
Song Ning’s old friends had been asking to see Huo Yao, but she was too busy to find the time since they were moving. Since they were meeting up today, she decided to bring Huo Yao along.
She had just met up with her friends when Lu Xia called, so she did not hear it ringing from inside her purse.
Song Ning turned down her friends’ suggestion to go for some karaoke after dinner. Instead, she bid farewell to them and headed home with her daughter.
On their way home, Huo Yao was playing video games as she sat in the front passenger seat when she received a call from Zhuo Yun.
