Sheng Shi grew even more upset as Gu Lanshan cried harder. She clung to Sheng Shi's waist with a death grip, her voice sounding particularly pitiable, "Shi'er, you don't know how upset I was, I thought I was going to die, there was no one by my side, I was so scared... That feeling was truly terrifying... I have never felt so scared in my life, Shi'er, do you know, I really thought I was going to die..."
If Gu Lanshan initially sounded a little melodramatic when she started speaking, as if she wanted to appear weak, she now genuinely got into the role, pouring out the feelings from the bottom of her heart between sobs and tearful hiccoughs, "Shi'er, you don't know how good it felt when I opened my eyes to find myself still alive, and to even see someone by my side."
Sheng Shi's body slowly stiffened. His initially frantic worry for Gu Lanshan's crying heart was shocked into momentary stillness by her words.
