Jiang Qi, still dazed from waking up, was suddenly grabbed by the collar and shaken violently. He was startled for a moment, then began to cough violently.
Watching Jiang Qi looking like he was about to pass out again, Gu Xiyue couldn't stand it anymore and reached out to restrain Gu Huaijin's wrist.
With his wrist restrained, Gu Huaijin lost his strength and let go of Jiang Qi's collar.
"Thud"
Jiang Qi's head hit the ground, causing him to grimace in pain.
Gu Huaijin looked up at Gu Xiyue, "Yueyue, you?"
"He's my friend," Gu Xiyue simply stated, then released Gu Huaijin's hand.
Hearing this, Gu Huaijin paused, "You..." He squeezed out the word 'you,' then feeling it was inappropriate, changed his approach, "Did Gu Zhiqi... provoke you again?"
"No." As Gu Xiyue spoke, she glanced at Jiang Qi, who was lying on the ground gasping for air, "Where is she?"
Jiang Qi: "Who?"
Clearly still not fully alert, he looked at Gu Xiyue with a confused face.
