Shen Nian tightened her grip on Gu Zifan's hand. When Gu Zifan noticed and looked up at her, Shen Nian looked down and gave him a reassuring smile.
Seeing Shen Nian's smile and feeling the warmth of her hand holding his, Gu Zifan suddenly felt his nervousness fade away.
'It was as if he had nothing to fear as long as his big sister was with him.'
Seeing a smile return to Gu Zifan's face, Shen Nian relaxed and led him upstairs, following Gu Yaohui and Gu Hengzhi.
Shen Nian had mentally prepared herself to face any kind of situation with Gong Shiya, but she never expected to find her already asleep.
Shen Nian looked at Gong Shiya, who was lying asleep in bed. The years of being bedridden had left her looking gaunt, but even so, there was no denying that Gong Shiya had a beautiful and elegant face.
While asleep, she showed none of the aggression Gu Hengzhi had warned her about. In fact, she looked completely gentle.
