This scene happened too suddenly.
Xu Ji only managed to grab the hem of her dress as he rushed over.
If Shang Hui hadn't unfastened that long row of buttons on her back, Xu Ji might have been able to pull her back by holding onto the hem. But the fastenings of her wedding dress had been undone, the shoulders also pulled down, and as he clung to her dress's hem, he felt her body slide uncontrollably downward from the waist of the dress after a mere one or two seconds' delay.
Xu Ji didn't have a second to think further; before her body fell, he bent down and leaped after her, using the feeble force from gripping her clothes to draw her into his embrace.
The moment she jumped out of the window and her body was suspended in mid-air, Gu Xi came to her senses.
But her muddled brain suddenly fell eerily silent.
Is it finally over?
She had thought to wait a little longer, as it would be over soon.
But she never expected it to come so abruptly.
Fine then.
Let it end like this.
