"Water..."
"Slippery."
Two innocent words, and everyone's actions came to a halt.
Gu Xiuzhen's tumbling body froze on the ground.
Zhang Lina's indignant expression was fixed on her face.
Political Commissioner Zhou, Dean Li, General Zhang... everyone's gaze shifted simultaneously from the woman making a scene on the floor to the quiet baby in the corner.
Gu An.
His expression remained calm and unperturbed.
His small finger was still pointing to that inconspicuous water stain at Gu Xiuzhen's foot.
There, the color of the cement floor was a shade darker.
If he hadn't pointed it out, in the previous chaos, no one would have noticed.
Gu Xiuzhen's heart sank.
It was as if her throat had been choked, and her crying and wailing stopped suddenly.
"This... this is..."
Zhao Tiezhu was the first to react, his eyes widened as he looked at the water on the floor and then at Gu Xiuzhen, scratching his head.
"What did the child say?"
