Ahri patted Ahze's hand and said, "It's okay."
Ellie hugged her mother's arm affectionately, recounting the hardships she had endured when she was kidnapped, and also praising Ahri's bravery.
However, Ace's parents didn't seem to believe it.
Ahri frowned, thinking: Is this like an ugly daughter-in-law meeting her in-laws, and then the in-laws are not satisfied, so will they have to break up the couple?
