Ye Qichi actually dared not touch Xie Ruotong.
Had it not been for Xie Ruotong, who could no longer stand on her own.
There were truly too many injuries on Xie Ruotong's body.
She felt as if there was not a single unbroken patch of skin left on her.
Ye Qichi was about to instruct Xiao Wu to carry Xie Ruotong and leave.
But he saw Xie Ruotong, step by step, laboriously moving her feet.
"Ruotong..."
"I can." Xie Ruotong said.
Breathing faintly, she spoke softly.
She wanted to walk out on her own.
She refused to allow herself to fall again.
Refused to fall again in front of the Song Family.
Ye Qichi was somewhat helpless.
But he did not refuse Xie Ruotong's insistence.
Sometimes.
Perhaps people live purely for dignity.
It's for that dignity that they continue to survive.
Ye Qichi, supporting Xie Ruotong, step by step, walked out of the dark room.
Then, they walked within the courtyard of the Song Residence.
Torches were lit within the courtyard.
