Ning Wan was initially startled by her words, but she wasn't surprised.
The things Murong Rui spoke about, although not yet confirmed as facts, had already tarnished Qiaoqiao's reputation with a bucket of dirty water due to this uproar.
From the beginning, Ning Wan didn't quite agree with Song Qiao and Lu Jingchen being together, but Song Qiao's choices and thoughts were beyond her control, even though they were best friends, each still had their little secrets.
Without trying to persuade her, Ning Wan nodded and directly said, "Alright, whatever you do, I will support you."
Mu Shinian had been silent on the side, but upon hearing Song Qiao's words, he clenched his fist and earnestly said, "Sis, don't worry, I will protect you well in the future."
Song Qiao looked up at Mu Shinian and, seeing the resolve on his face that was atypical for his age, felt her eyes warm, and she smiled slightly, saying, "Alright, in the future, Shinian will be responsible for protecting me."
