"It's me, Lin Xi, it's me." Gu Fan desperately grabbed hold of Lin Xi's arm, shouting loudly, shaking her vigorously, finally getting through to the frantically struggling Lin Xi.
Finally calming down, the overtly horrified Lin Xi looked at Gu Fan's silhouette in the darkness and, after repeatedly confirming, threw herself recklessly into Gu Fan's arms, then started sobbing loudly.
