Tianshi Xue did not know what she was supposed to feel. There was just something hollow inside of her right now. She didn't know if she did it willingly--if she had willed herself to stop feeling for a moment because she could not bear it, or was it her brain that did all the work?
Her feet moved fast. As if she could not walk fast enough. Her vision got spotted with dark circles. Her heart was beating too fast that it was all she could hear. The pounding on her ears. Then Lady Nia's throaty screams.
A shiver wanted to run through her spine but it did not come. It was like the rest of her had turned into stone. There was only one thing that her body wanted. It wanted to be cleansed. It needed to be underwater. She wanted to get out of these clothes as soon as possible.
She wanted to unhear everything that she had heard for the last ten minutes.
