Qiao Xi had a confused expression and did not understand what Gu Zheng meant. She looked up and met the man's deep eyes. Then, she heard the man's low and hoarse voice. "You knew that someone wanted to harm you, yet you still had the guts to go to 109 alone. Xi Xi, are you getting bolder?"
Qiao Xi lowered her head guiltily and muttered softly, "Can that good-for-nothing hurt me? Moreover, I'm fine!"
He bent down and moved closer. Qiao Xi leaned against the wall, her legs trembling nervously.
A trace of anger appeared in the man's usually calm eyes. "Are you so confident that you won't encounter any danger? You met Lu Kang this time. What if you meet someone stronger than you the next time? Can you still guarantee your safety?"
Qiao Xi did not expect Gu Zheng to be so angry because of this matter. She hurriedly lowered her head and admitted her mistake. "It won't happen again. I'll protect myself."
"Xi Xi, I don't want this to happen again."
