Her slender waist was strapped with two gleaming paired blades, cold light flickering on the steel, red cords tied to the scabbards for better grip around the hand. She wobbled as she stood up from the middle of the hammock, spread her arms, and walked forward.
"Ninth Brother, if you don't come out, I'll just jump down and fall to my death!"
Still no one paid her any attention.
"Ninth Brother?!"
It was still completely silent...
"Nin——th Bro——ther——"
The girl didn't dare to shout out loud, so she cupped her hands around her mouth to gather her voice; with that motion, her body lost its balance, her whole self tilted, fell out of the hammock, and plunged downward—
"Aaahhhh!"
Xiao Qi squeezed her eyes tightly shut as her body dropped fast, yet she still refused to save herself. She just didn't believe it—could Ninth Brother really watch her fall to her death with his eyes wide open?!
What was that idiom again... heart of a wolf, lungs of a tiger!
