Gu Xiqiao placed Gu Xijin to the side, turning to the young man with red eyes beside her instead.
When he saw her gaze on him, his heart pounded fiercely in his ribcage. Gu Xiqiao's actions had terrified him. "Sorry, I'm merely an ordinary person, and I'm not here to give any trouble to you. I'm also not from the Qing triad, I'm here only because Gu Xijin forced me to come here."
His tone was calm, but there was an obvious tension in both his eyes and shoulders.
"Why would she force you to come?" Gu Xiqiao had returned to her seat, her eyes still on the young man.
Seeing that Gu Xiqiao had no intentions to kill him or harm him, the red eyed young man let out a breath of relief. Noticing that Gu Xiqiao was waiting for an explanation from him, he immediately replied, "My sister is in her hands."
Gu Xiqiao nodded her head.
