I couldn't help but feel anxious and wanted to rush out as well.
Mai Qi and Jing Ni quickly pulled me back. "What are you doing?!"
"Jing Tian..." I was stunned for a moment. I wanted to protect Jing Tian.
Mai Qi patted me. "Don't worry. They'll be fine. They'll be distracted if you go out."
Jing Ni nodded.
They were both very calm.
I was shocked by my own thoughts. Why would I want to protect Jing Tian? Shouldn't he be the one protecting me?
"Was Jing Tian in need of protection in the past?" I asked the two of them hesitantly.
They were both stunned. Jing Ni reached out to smooth my hair. "Nanxing, that is not true. But you two have always been like this. You have protected seventh uncle since he was young. You're always afraid that he'd be taken advantage of. The other women who covet him want him to protect them. But you're the only one who is afraid that he'd be at a disadvantage. You're always there to shield him.
