Jin Jiuchi gaped at him, utterly flabbergasted. What did the jade doll mean by that? Did he just say that he would still go out after curfew and risk being caught by that bizarre spider aka Madam Liu version two?!
"NO!" he hollered out loud. If he could move, he would have shot up to his feet and grabbed Nian by the shoulders, shaking him to see if he could shake the water off his brain. Who was the one who lacked common sense here? Had he even looked at himself in the mirror?! Nian'er was so tiny, what if he was swallowed by that spider creature in one gulp?! The more Jin Jiuchi thought about it, the more aghast he was. "Nian'er, you can't! You—"
"Ssshh!" Nian hastily shushed him with a dark glare. "Keep your volume down!"
Jin Jiuchi did not listen, of course. Not only that, he also shouted louder. "Ah, ah, ah! Help— there's a bad Nian'er here! He wants to—hmpph!" The needle was stabbed into Jin Jiuchi's body again, sealing his mouth shut in an instant.
