Bab 539: Being Rescued 3

At this moment, Ye Xiyuan was weakly leaning in Lin Wanqin's arms, seemingly having lost consciousness. However, only she knew that she had heard every word Li Qiaomeng said, and it made her feel distinctly uneasy.

Because, as Li Qiaomeng stated, when she was being held hostage, her family members did nothing except offer a few superficial words of concern. If they were willing to act decisively and confront Ye Leng'an, even if success wasn't guaranteed, it would have prevented Li Qiaomeng from going mad and causing harm. Even her mother, who professed guilt towards her, behaved the same way.

Their reluctance to take action stemmed solely from a fear of shouldering responsibility.

Had it been Ye Anyun held hostage today, her parents would likely have lost control. In the end, it boiled down to her being a girl and finding her way back halfway.
