"Ning Xi is strong. I'm sure she'll be okay but we still have to do our part as both her friends and family. We need to find her." Ji Huiling got up and walked up to him.
"I'm not trying to comfort you though. This is all your fault, if you had been more devoted to your duty as her guardian you would've told her to come back the instant you made contact with her knowing she's their target."
She sat next to him and sighed. "Although you made a mistake, you're still the most suitable person to take care of her and besides you were the one who found her and brought her home. So promise me when we find her you'll make sure she doesn't leave your sight."
Ji Xiruan nodded.
"Well th-" Ji Xiruan cut her off before she could complete her sentence.
"Jiejie did you just compliment me?" He looked at her with a sly smile.
"What? Heck no! I was degrading you, you little punk!!" She grabbed a pillow and threw it at him before walking towards her bed.
