For some reason, after enduring so much hardship, Gui Qinshao's first words when she threw herself into Suo Lun's arms were actually coquettish.
It was because her heart was filled with infinite insecurity; her father, Gui Xingfu, had become so ugly and despicable, Ling Ao had become so cowardly and shameless, to her the entire world had collapsed.
And she, as a pampered and privileged young lady, had given up hope after suffering so much and was resigned to her fate.
After being rescued, her first reaction was whether there was still someone who would treasure her pampered status.
Suo Lun didn't say a word, just held her in his arms and softly asked, "I'll take you back to Tianshui City, okay?"
"Mm." Gui Qinshao was still crying, responded with a sound, then continued to huddle in Suo Lun's embrace.
Time was pressing, and as Suo Lun carried Qinshao, Zhi Yan knocked out Zhi Li's concubine Jian Liu, hoisted her onto her waist, and then quickly exited the dungeon.
