Gu Qiaoqiao returned to her own courtyard, and as expected, Lian Yuhong soon brought over the Calming Spirit Soup.
Seeing Gu Qiaoqiao, her eyes couldn't help but well up with tears, and she embraced her daughter, murmuring, "Qiaoqiao, you must have been scared today, why don't we go back to Stone Town? The Imperial Capital isn't good... Mom doesn't like it here..."
These days, she had more or less learned about past events.
Lian Yuhong felt that even though they now lived comfortably and ate well, she didn't feel as at ease as before.
Nor as secure.
What was this all about?
It was just a trip out, and such incidents could happen, making her anxious and afraid, yet she couldn't show it, for fear of frightening Qianqian.
But she didn't like this kind of life.
Gu Qiaoqiao hugged her mother back, feeling somewhat guilty because she had spoken to her mother much less recently.
And all of this was unimaginable and incomprehensible to her mother.
