In a sheer panic, Luo'er was about to let go of her hand, but Princess Melia pushed her hand more firmly into his. At the same time, her other hand gripped his wrist. She tilted her head and asked, "What's wrong? Keep teaching me."
"Then, place your hand on the cylinder and pull it back," Luo'er spoke, feeling increasingly unsettled.
"Like this?" Princess Melia clumsily placed her hand on the cylinder and gently tried to pull back, but couldn't.
"Safety's not off!" Luo'er hastily flipped the safety on the handgun and covered Melia's hand with his own, assisting her in pulling it back.
Melia's hand was incredibly soft and smooth - Luo'er heart swayed as he made contact. Melia's voice had softened, subtly contributing to the increasingly intimate atmosphere between them.
"Bang!"
The gunshot brought them back to reality, with Luo'er almost forgetting there was a live round in the chamber. Luckily, Melia had pointed the gun at the water, so no one was hurt.
