When he saw He Jingyan, his eyes suddenly reddened, and he knelt down beside He Jingyan with a thud, bursting into hysterical sobs again.
He Jingyan looked at He Yunce, and suddenly seemed to think of something, his eyes darkening for a moment.
Then she crawled to He Yunze's side, reached out and hugged his trembling head, and said in a trembling voice, "Good Yunze, good Yunze..."
