When she was done talking, Gu Nian lifted up her chin and happily waited for “compliments”. “My precious son is so kind, right?”

Jiang Xiaoqing was very happy after she learned of the incident. “I can even imagine the look on Zhuo Yixuan when it all came down. Ahahahaha. She brought it onto herself!”

Qin Yuanyuan looked up. “We get why you back Luo Xiu, Gu Nian. But haven’t Luo Xiu only met you once? Why did he trust you so?”

Inside their residence that night.

Gu Nian, rolling around for the 179th time on her bed while clutching onto the blanket and her cellphone, had tears in her eyes.

“Woowoowoo, Nantian, wouldn’t you agree that my precious son is especially simple, especially kind, and especially cute?”

“……”

“He could have just let me handle it all but he stood up nonetheless, while bearing the risk of offending the director!”

Zhuo Yixuan had never been treating this way before and, not being able to put up with this anymore, she pushed away those who were trying to comfort her, turned and ran away with her reddened eyes.

Watching the entire event unfold, Gu Nian was so touched that her eyes were teary.

Sniffles. You are mommy’s good son!

Gu Nian was frantic about what she could make up to get out of this but, luckily, Luo Xiu didn’t seem to want to get down to the bottom of it. He just lifted his hand a little.

Gu Nian’s hand was moved by his action and she suddenly recollected herself and quickly retrieved her hand that had been resting on his wrist. “Sorry. T^T”

Luo Xiu said with a nonchalant look, “No worries.”
