"Ah!" Su Zixi couldn't hold back anymore and screamed loudly!
Clear and rapid footsteps approached from a distance, followed by her hearing He Jingyao's deep voice tinged with concern, "Zhixi, what's wrong?"
Hearing his voice, Su Zixi felt her initially panicked emotions subside slightly, and she called out, "I'm fine..."
"Don't be afraid, I'm coming in," said He Jingyao soothingly.
His gentle and deep voice seemed to have a strange power that suddenly calmed Su Zixi down. She took a deep breath, tried the bathroom door again, and with a click, the bathroom door successfully opened!
Overjoyed, Su Zixi hurried out of the narrow bathroom, as if a ghastly specter was chasing her from behind!
But it was still pitch black outside, and she ran so hastily that she didn't see what she hit and toppled forward violently!
Su Zixi was so frightened that she couldn't even shout, only waiting in terror for the pain to come... but instead, a pair of strong arms timely caught her.
