She paused, then continued. "However, you clearly still don't know me well. If I wanted to flatten you, it wouldn't be as simple as pushing you down a flight of stairs. According to my style, it's more likely that I'll throw you down from here."
"You…" Song Xirou's pupils contracted slightly, and her fingertips couldn't help but tremble.
"Hush!" Jian Qing raised a finger to her lips, her eyes flashed with danger. "Do you want to consider jumping from here again, to frame me once more? Maybe if you fall and get seriously injured, everyone will actually believe I pushed you down."
Madam Quan looked at Jian Qing's retreating figure, then at Song Xirou. Her gaze no longer held the kindness of before, and her heart was filled with complexity.
Was it really true as Axuan and the others had claimed, that Xirou was not as kind and gentle as she appeared on the surface?
Did she intentionally fall down the stairs to frame Jian Qing?
