Qiao Nian sat there panting heavily, her forehead covered in cold sweat.
Gu Zhou reached out and pulled Qiao Nian into his arms. He patted her shoulder gently and comforted her. "Don't be afraid. It's fine. It'll be fine."
She looked at Gu Zhou with red-rimmed eyes. She grabbed Gu Zhou's arm and said anxiously, "Where's Chen Qing? I have something to ask Chen Qing. Call him over."
Gu Zhou looked at Qiao Nian. Her face was pale, and her voice was trembling. Even her body was trembling.
What was she afraid of?
Gu Zhou held Qiao Nian's hand tightly and comforted her gently. "Nian'er, what happened? Did you have a nightmare?"
Qiao Nian tried hard to regulate her breathing. When she heard Gu Zhou's concerned words, she reached out and held his hand. Her eyes were red as she sniffled and said in a choked voice, "I just dreamed of Eldest Senior Brother."
