Jiang Yi caught a cold from the rain, running a slight fever, and had barely left the house for several days.
Her plans to return to the UK to continue her studies were also almost finalized.
Gu Xici sat in the living room of the Jiang Family Residence, cradling a cup of hot tea, watching the dreary drizzle outside.
For some reason, he felt unusually at ease.
The Elder Chief added more tea to Gu Xici's cup and, looking at the weather outside, said, "I've seen on the news that things are quite chaotic abroad lately, and honestly, I wouldn't feel at ease if you weren't going to the UK with Xiao Yi."
Gu Xici understood Elder Jiang's concerns.
Indeed, the news had reported at least three incidents of unwarranted attacks on Chinese individuals abroad in the past few days, which certainly had many international students feeling anxious.
