His body returned to that slightly trembling state, as if the ruthless character who had just taken care of the two thugs in an instant had never existed.
"Ning... Second Brother Ning..." His voice was tearful, filled with fear and dependence. He staggered towards Ning Xiuyan like a young animal seeking shelter, "I was scared to death... They..."
He rushed to Ning Xiuyan, holding Ning Xiuyan's arms tightly with both hands, his body still trembling slightly. He looked up at Ning Xiuyan with eyes full of relief for surviving the disaster and complete trust.
Ning Xiuyan froze in place, as if under a spell.
His mind went blank and his heart was beating wildly in his chest, not because of the "danger" just now, but because of the absurd and subversive scene before him!
