Chi Xiaoyu's mood hit rock bottom; if she hadn't come to the Gong Family, she would never have been this heartbroken...
After witnessing the engagement between Gong Beiming and Bai Luowei, and having been insulted by Madam Gong, her heart was shrouded in darkness.
She hurried out from the dim corridor.
All she wanted was to leave this place that caused her so much pain as quickly as possible...
The lobby was still bustling with figures, the brief episode she caused earlier quickly forgotten as the crowd continued to gravitate towards Old Madam Gong.
The music marched on.
She lowered her head and hurried down the stairs, holding on for support.
She didn't know who it was that deliberately pushed her from behind, but her foot slipped and she lost control, tumbling down the stairs.
In the instant she fell, she reflexively reached out to protect her belly, but as a result, the back of her head struck hard against the step.
