Holding the child, Shi Qi walked forward and pulled her aside with a smile:
"Don't worry, sister-in-law, it's just a minor scratch and will heal soon.
Are you ready? Let's go into town."
Bai Xiaohua knew that Shi Qi was trying to comfort her, and didn't want to talk about Shi Qi's sad story. She nodded randomly, wiping her tears and said:
"Ready, ready, let's go."

Shi Qi felt warm in his heart after hearing this. He reached out and held Bai Xiaohua's pale hand, saying sincerely:
"I'm sorry for making you worry, sister-in-law."
