Li Beinian was stunned as she looked at the man before her.
Hearing what Mu Xichen said, that person looked agonizingly at his friend lying lifelessly on the floor.
With one hand around Li Beinian's neck, he took a step back.
"Don't come over!" He yelled. "Or I'll kill her!"
Mu Xichen did not move.
But his eyes went cold.
He seemed extremely threatening.
The man got even more anxious. "Put the gun down!"
He called out, "Otherwise, I'll kill your friend!"
There was a cold, painful knock on Li Beinian's head.
She felt her head throb.
Li Beinian's heart was about to pounce out of her chest as she looked up Mu Xichen.
She tried to calm herself down and keep her eyes on him.
That alone helped quell some of her fears.
Mu Xichen's expression was calm as usual. He slowly put the gun down.
"Put your hands up!"
His saliva was almost on her face as he spat his terrible Chinese.
