"Wh-why?" Xia Yinian was completely unprepared for this.
Perhaps, even if she imagined thousands of threats, she wouldn't have thought it would be Beicheng's biological mom.
Wasn't her mom missing for over twenty years? She always thought... How did she suddenly appear in Bing City?
"I don't know either, but this time she seems to have no intention of hurting you." Gu Beicheng responded seriously.
"The last time she came to Bing City, it was the first time I had seen her again in over twenty years."
Gu Beicheng gently stroked Xia Yinian's back, as if comforting a frightened little bunny.
"Don't think too much, I'll handle it."
But wasn't he the one in need of comfort? Meeting again after twenty years in such circumstances.
"Does... your mom remember you?" Xia Yinian asked in a low voice.
"Perhaps." Gu Beicheng held her tightly, closing his eyes, "I won't let her hurt you in the future."
"And her? Don't you need to talk?" Xia Yinian asked again.
