But he felt that this feeling was very good and comfortable. He slowly increased the strength in his hand and hugged her tightly.

It was already nighttime by the time Xiao Ying returned. She got Wang Feiran to send her to Qiao Na’s house.

Wang Feiran stopped the car and said, “I’m sorry to have troubled you today. My grandfather hasn’t been well for a long time. He only improved after you saw him last time. Fortunately, you were there when his illness suddenly acted up.”

Xiao Ying smiled to indicate that it was alright and said, “Grandpa is old. You should pay attention to his emotions and not let them fluctuate too much. He should be fine otherwise.”

After bidding farewell to her, Xiao Ying went to Qiao Na’s house. She had just pressed the doorbell when the door opened.

She looked down and saw Qiao Zihao’s small body standing at the door, as if he had been waiting for her.

Xiao Ying was instantly buried by a sense of guilt, but thinking that he was the one who had caused Cheng Yang’s incident, she hardened her heart.

Qiao Zihao sounded delighted. “Sister, are you here to pick me up?”

Qiao Na’s voice sounded from behind. “Is it Xiao Ying?”

Xiao Ying greeted her. Seeing that Qiao Na had warmly invited her in, she knew that it would be impossible to take Qiao Zihao away directly, so she followed them in.

Xiao Ying had a good impression of Qiao Na.

Xiao Ying sat on the couch while Qiao Zihao carefully sat down beside her. Qiao Na could tell at a glance that there was a strange atmosphere between the two of them, but she did not ask. She could vaguely sense that Xiao Ying and her son were not ordinary people. She could not intervene in their matters even if she wanted to.

With Qiao Na around, Xiao Ying did not show any obvious malice towards Qiao Zihao. However, the defensive aura that she subconsciously exuded was still very obvious.

After exchanging pleasantries, Qiao Zihao left with Xiao Ying.

Normally, she would just leave him to Xiao Ying and ignore him. But today, things were a little different.

Just as they were about to leave, Qiao Na called out to Qiao Zihao.

When he turned around, she said, “Zihao, Mommy will wait for you to come home.”

After he nodded, she quickly returned to her room and closed the door to prevent them from seeing the tears on her face.

She came to the window and watched as Qiao Zihao’s small figure slowly walked away. She had a feeling that they were really parting this time.

This place was not far from where she lived, so Xiao Ying and Qiao Zihao walked back.

As soon as they were out of Qiao Na’s sight, Xiao Ying let go of Qiao Zihao’s hand.

Qiao Zihao did not resist and obediently followed her.

Suddenly, a figure ran past her. Xiao Ying was stunned and quickly chased after the figure.

Qiao Zihao immediately shouted, “Sister, don’t chase him!”

Xiao Ying didn’t listen to him at all. She ran straight towards the figure in front of her. She couldn’t be wrong. That was Cheng Yang.

Qiao Zihao had no choice but to chase after her.

Xiao Ying quickly followed the figure in front. When she saw that he had entered an alley, she followed him.

The figure in front of her stopped moving and slowly turned around. Cheng Yang’s face was exposed under the moonlight.

Xiao Ying was overjoyed. Just as she was about to go forward, she was pulled by a force behind her and hid behind a rubbish bin. An explosion sounded from her head.

Xiao Ying turned around and saw a few men in black suddenly appearing there, chasing after Cheng Yang with guns in their hands.

Cheng Yang was soon fighting with these people, and Xiao Ying looked over worriedly.

Qiao Zihao said, “Sister, don’t make a sound. He’ll be fine.”

He was the one who had saved her life. Xiao Ying could not be too cold, so she nodded in agreement.

Cheng Yang was not at a disadvantage against the six men in black, and Xiao Ying was relieved.

The amulet in her sea of consciousness suddenly appeared and exclaimed, “How is this possible? Why hasn’t his luck weakened?”

At this moment, Qiao Zihao’s body stiffened. He pulled Xiao Ying along and said, “Let’s go, Sister.”

Xiao Ying did not agree. In this situation, how could she abandon Cheng Yang and run away alone?
