She turned around and strode toward the back door, and Lu Beichen quickly followed. Coincidentally, Tong Ji Yang's people had already brought Gu Xiyao over. She had almost recovered, but after all, having her stomach pumped was damaging, and being confined in the Tong Family for these past few days had left her looking extremely haggard.
Tong Songlin stepped forward and nervously took her hand. Gu Xiyao then cried out with a sob, "Mother?"
"It's okay now! These past few days your uncle hasn't troubled you, has he?" she asked with a frown.
Gu Xiyao, rarely seeing her mother so anxious, shook her head, "Mother, I'm fine!"
Only then did Tong Songlin let out an almost imperceptible sigh of relief, pulling her inside, only to turn and see Ji Niandong and Lu Beichen standing at the door.
Tears were still on Ji Niandong's face as Lu Beichen held her hand, the tension and heartache clearly visible on his face.
Gu Xiyao, seeing their tightly held hands, involuntarily trembled!
