Yan Luoxi lay on the bed reading a script when Mou Chenyi came over to treat her neck wound briefly before leaving. Yet Li Yeqi hadn't returned since he left, causing her significant unease.
Soon after, she heard the sound of an engine downstairs. She hurriedly set the script aside, not even bothering with her shoes, and dashed down the stairs.
As she ran into the living room, she saw Li Yeqi come in looking disheveled. His clothes were wrinkled and bore suspicious blood stains, with a cut stretching across his mouth and his eye swollen—indications that he was indeed injured.
Her heart pounded like a drum, "You, you really went to fight Mo Beichen?"
Li Yeqi strode toward her, his gaze falling on her bare feet upon the floor. He bent down to scoop her up and quickly carried her to the sofa, setting her down before frowning and asking, "Why did you come downstairs without wearing any shoes?"
