"We can't just leave like this. They saved us, so we should save this lord too."
Qin Ruoxi refused to listen to persuasion. She broke into a run toward the front, preparing to save the person who had fallen from the sky.

However, he paid no attention to the meat and looked instead at Qin Ruoxi.
Seeing that Qin Ruoxi was unharmed, he breathed a sigh
