Fu Ruyi's eyes turned crimson, and upon hearing Nie Xiaoxing's words, they quickly filled with tears.
Nie Xiaoxing pressed her lips forcefully and reached out to hold a hand each of Fu Ruyi and Nie Fangsheng.
Nie Fangsheng paused for a moment, his unfocused eyes slowly turning toward Nie Xiaoxing.
"If it weren't for Mr. Lei and Mr. Xiao arriving in time, your father and I might…"
Fu Ruyi looked at Nie Fangsheng with red eyes and said to Nie Xiaoxing in a choked voice.
Nie Xiaoxing felt as if her heart was weighed down by a heavy stone, making her breathing feel labored.
She closed her eyes lightly and looked at Gu Yan, the vulnerability and gratitude in her eyes at that moment making Gu Yan's heart ache.
Nie Xiaoxing knew.
The reason Lei Yicheng and Xiao Nanqing arrived in time to save Fu Ruyi and Nie Fangsheng was entirely because Gu Yan had made arrangements beforehand.
It was solely because of Gu Yan that Lei Yicheng and Xiao Nanqing helped them like this.
