Ruan Qi carefully examined Xi Jiu, ensuring that he was truly unharmed before letting out a sigh of relief.
"It's good that you're not hurt. I heard from Uncle Xi Xi that this morning was particularly dangerous, and the other side even used tear gas grenades. By the way, how is everyone else? Is everyone okay?"
"A few sustained minor injuries, but everyone else is fine. I told them to go rest. Baby," Xi Jiu clasped the young girl's hand, his tone somber, "I'm sorry, I didn't capture Jiang Chunian this time and let him escape."
Since returning from the affluent district, Xi Jiu had been in a sullen mood.
Though there were reasons for it, just thinking about Jiang Chunian slipping away right under his nose felt like a thorn in his throat.
Seeing Xi Jiu so self-critical, Ruan Qi tiptoed and patted him twice on the head.
