Qiu Xingyu tugged at Qiu Tong's sleeve. She widened her black grape-like eyes and said, "It was Brother Ye Luan who saved us."
"Uncle Ke Le told us to hide here and wait for them and Mommy to come back. They went to chase after the other baddies!"
Qiu Tong raised her hand and gently rubbed the top of Qiu Xingyu's head. Qiu Tong's heart ached when she saw the little girl still trying to be strong even when her face had already turned pale from fright.
She hugged Qiu Xingyuan and Qiu Xingqiao and said in a low voice, "Don't be afraid, Mommy will protect you!"
Xiao Zhen did not expect the children to be so smart and bold. Even though his lie had been exposed, he was not the least bit embarrassed. Instead, he walked up to Qiu Tong and tried to worm his way into her good books. The president's guards saw his actions and promptly held out their batons, gesturing for him to stay put.
