"I'm fine." Jiang Ning sat upright. "Why did you take so long to get here?"
Gufeng hurried forward to help her remove the gold chain, scrambling to explain. "It's all my fault. I got lost and took the wrong route, which delayed me."
He hung his head in shame. "If it were Gucheng, he would never have made such a mistake."

Gufeng's mood lightened a bit. "The General also said that Gucheng tends to be disobedient."
"That's why our Gufeng is the good boy." Jiang Ning raised her hand, watching him struggling with the lock, her expression worried. "Can't you unlock it?"
