When he mentioned the last point, the boy's voice was very light. He pursed his lips and his eyes flickered, seeming a bit embarrassed.
The room fell silent for a moment, and a trace of disgust flashed in the eyes of Gu Qingqing and the others.
"By the way, I haven't asked you yet, what's your name?" Yue Zhao broke the silence in the room, softly asking the boy beside him.
The boy was startled for a moment, "I, my surname is Chi, and my name is Lanting."
"Chi Lanting, it's a nice name. It seems your parents must have had high expectations for you." Yue Zhao softly recited the name Chi Lan Ting, speaking with a sense of admiration.
This should have been a compliment, but who knew it would bring tears to Chi Lan Ting's eyes, his tears swirling in his eyes, "When I was captured, my parents died protecting me!"
He lowered his head, his voice choked with emotion, his body trembling slightly, and his shoulders heaving as he appeared very sorrowful.
