Amidst a sudden roar, Qiao Yuxian shivered in Gu Yanjing's embrace and sat up straight, looking towards the doorway.
Zhaocai was so startled that it fell off the sofa, skidded across the floor with its hind legs, and in a few bounds reached the top of the cat tree. It adopted an aggressive stance in its safe spot.
Qiao Yuxian watched the doorway as Huo Yanxin stormed into the living room from outside.
She stood next to the sofa, glaring angrily at Qiao Yuxian.
Just when Qiao Yuxian thought Huo Yanxin was about to hit her, and she was about to jump off the sofa and run.
Huo Yanxin's eyes reddened.
Qiao Yuxian paused mid-movement, her pupils fluttering slightly, and quickly stood up and walked to her side: "Sister."
Huo Yanxin starred at her, her lips moved several times but no sound came out. Her breathing grew heavier as she suppressed the rising emotions.
Qiao Yuxian looked at her, after a while, she tugged at her sleeve gently and called out again: "Sister."
