"If you keep this up, none of them will make it out alive." Shi Zhiyan's expression turned cold, his eyes fixed on Shi Li's hands clutching his collar.
He suddenly clamped down on her two slender, pale wrists, his presence overwhelmingly oppressive.
Shi Li was so intimidated she couldn't even meet his gaze.
Her docile appearance made Shi Zhiyan's heart stir; he rarely saw Shi Li looking so obedient.
In the past, she would've had her sharp nails out and scratching him by now.
"Just tell me what happened to them!" Shi Li didn't dare to take a hard line with Shi Zhiyan. Subconsciously, she was still a little intimidated by his role as her "older brother."
In her previous world, she had been an orphan with no parents, let alone an older brother.
She yearned for that kind of connection but had no idea how to properly interact with one.
So now, she was extremely cautious and couldn't help but show her softer side to try and win Shi Zhiyan over.
