Qiao Liang walked to the door, listened carefully, but didn't hear any movement. However, he didn't relax.
Ever since he first encountered Qian Xueying at the Duke Residence and eavesdropped on her conversation with the Duke, Qiao Liang felt that this woman was not simple. He kept an eye on the events that followed and, of course, understood what kind of person she was.
With his intelligence, it's not hard to guess that Qian Xueying came to find him to use him against Gan Yuan. Now that he's here, that woman won't give up easily without catching him.
Confirming that the other party hadn't found the vicinity, Qiao Liang returned and noticed a piece of rebar in the corner. He immediately went over and grabbed it in his hand.
He retreated to Chu Xinqing's side with the rebar in hand and gently held her face to comfort her.
"Xiaoqing, are you okay?"
Feeling the warmth from the man's warm palm, Chu Xinqing's mood settled a lot. She immediately nodded gently and responded softly.
