Gu Nian patted Gu Xin's head: "Sweetie, don't cry, your sister is here. I'm sorry, my little Xin Xin, your sister is only just arriving!"
Gu Xin cried even louder.
As soon as she cried, everyone around, from patrol soldiers to civilians, glared angrily at Gu Nian and the other two, especially Huo Yanyu and Gu Si, who were held even tighter.
Huo Yanyu whispered, "Sisi, didn't we go too far with this joke?"
Gu Si sighed, "I still haven't tried hard enough! If I were stronger than my second sister, I wouldn't have been defeated by my third sister in such a short time, and I would be the one being held and cried by my third sister right now!"
Huo Yanyu: "..."
So, no matter what, I'm the one who gets caught, not the one who gets held and cried!
"Third sister, third sister! Me, me too! Tell your soldiers to release me! My hand is going to break!" Gu Si shouted.
"Sister Xinxin, it's me, and me too. I'm so clumsy, my kung fu is bad, my hand is broken, my hand is broken!" Huo Yanyu also shouted.
Gu Xin then remembered that there were two other people.
Wiping away her tears with one hand and holding Gu Nian's hand with the other, she walked over, said a few words to the patrolmen, and then explained to the people who had gathered around, worried that she would be bullied, that she was someone they knew and was just joking around, and that everyone should disperse.
The patrolmen and civilians then dispersed.
There were only a few girls left on the spot. Gu Xin wiped away her tears while scolding Huo Yanyu and Gu Si: "It's been over a year, how come you two are still so weak! You were defeated in just a few moves, you're so stupid!"
"Hanhan just lacks talent, so let's not talk about that. Sisi, you actually lost in just a few moves. Did you stop practicing while I was away? In two more years, even Renren will be able to beat you!"
"And also, what kind of outfit is this?! It's so ugly! This kind of outfit is the ugliest in the west."
"And the way you guys were looking at me just now! Did you go and harass decent men while I was away, without even taking me with you? That's so mean!"
"..."
Gu Xin launched into a long tirade, tears streaming down her face, while Gu Nian and the other two were also caught up in the laughter and tears.
Suddenly, Gu Xin saw a couple dressed in Eastern attire not far away, looking at her with tears in their eyes and smiles. Beside them was a handsome, tall, and slender young man.
Gu Xin stopped scolding, wiped away her tears, looked at the couple, blinked, then blinked hard again, and ran over. When she got closer, she looked at her parents, who seemed shorter than before, and said, "Father, Mother."
"Yes!" The couple replied, their eyes glistening with tears.
"Mother!" Gu Xin rushed into Cai Xiaolian's arms, but she had grown taller and Cai Xiaolian was now shorter than her.
"Oh!" Cai Xiaolian couldn't stop her tears either, hugging her daughter and gently patting her back.
Gu Shouxin looked up at the sky and finally managed to hold back his tears.
"Mother, I miss you so much, I think about you every day. Mother..." Gu Xin cried even louder.
“Your mother misses you too, she misses you every day. So, your mother has come to take you home,” Cai Xiaolian said, her voice choked with emotion.
"Wah..." Gu Xin cried loudly.
She thought about returning to Kuncheng and seeing her family. She also silently told herself that she was grown up and couldn't cry too much. A grown woman doesn't cry; she can only shed tears silently and can't wail loudly.
She was also thinking that she should practice hard on the way back so that she wouldn't cry.
However, happiness came too suddenly, and her family came too suddenly, without giving her a chance to grow up. She was still like a child, crying loudly without regard for her image.
