"Let's stay here and wait for Eldest Brother to return. They will definitely be alright… they will be alright," Xiao Yuyan muttered.
It was unsure whether she was consoling herself or her little sister.
Xiao Qingya watched as Zhou Anran's hurried figure disappeared in the distance. Xiao Yuyan picked up her little sister, intending to keep her inside the house and prevent her from running away.
However, before they could get inside, there were a few guests who suddenly arrived.
Zhou Wenzhi got off the ox cart and a few unfamiliar faces followed behind him. Xiao Yuyan had never seen them before. Still, seeing her grandfather felt like a lost child finding their parents again at a time like this.
"Yan'er, where is your mother?" Zhou Wenzhi asked. Soon, he noticed Xiao Yuyan's face which looked as if she was desperately holding back her tears and was startled. "What's wrong? Tell your grandfather!"
She suddenly opened the door wide, revealing a familiar figure bound in ropes.
