Ever since Cheng Su met Chiang Qing and heard what she said, she found herself deeply uneasy. After returning to Qing City, she acted a bit more cautious, glancing around at the people with a hint of suspicion. She wondered whether one of the people coming and going might be following her, taking photos under Chiang Qing's orders.
With such apprehension and doubt, her mood hit rock bottom and her emotions were slightly out of control. She desperately wanted to see Qi Taiguo, seeking his reassurance.
People are like this; when there's someone to rely on, they instinctively seek that support when things happen. Cheng Su was no different. Although a strong woman, she also had moments of vulnerability.
However, Qi Taiguo was not there.
Returning to the courtyard at Goodwill Place, Cheng Su felt a sudden sense of calm and composure upon seeing the gate.
