I have to say that Qian Wang was really considerate. The moment I carried Xiao Lan out the door, Qian Wang had already come up to meet us. He hadn't left; instead, he waited outside the tile house, perhaps ready to rush in without a second word if I had screamed inside the house, even though he didn't know any spells.
"I told you, there's nothing that can stump Liang Zi. Look, didn't I save Xiao Lan?" Qian Wang said proudly to Ke Xin beside him, as if he had done it himself. But on second thought, that made sense. Anyone would be just as proud if they had a brother with such extraordinary powers.
I really couldn't figure out Ke Xin's courage—it was huge one moment, like she could cover the sky, and tiny the next, like a mouse. Just now, she was nearly frightened to the point of stupidity, but she was now looking at me with eyes full of admiration, making me somewhat embarrassed and definitely blushing.
