At the time, she was young and did not have the complexity of thoughts she had now. It completely escaped her attention that while she had been negotiating with the ruffians, Tang Nuan had not said a word.
After she yelled for Tang Nuan to run, Tang Nuan took a step back before stopping. She had no clue, actually deep down in Tang Nuan's heart, she was looking out for herself first. She was glad when Song Qingchun intervened to protect her. She prayed desperately for Song Qingchun to do more than that and was secretly relieved when Song Qingchun yelled at her to run.
Tang Nuan gritted her teeth and took off.
Song Qingchun saw Tang Nuan escaping toward safety and sighed under her breath. At least one of them was safe. She was sure Tang Nuan was going to return with help.
