She felt as if she suddenly became blind, gripped by an overwhelming sense of panic. She fumbled on the ground, trying to stand up, to walk back the way she had come, wanting to knock on the door.
But after feeling around, she still couldn't touch anything.
Her heart grew even more frightened.
"Shangguan Xiu, let me out. I'm really scared, please..."
The terror in her heart involuntarily conjured up images from horror TV shows and movies.
She was so frightened that she forgot everything else, only knowing to shout his name, wanting him to let her out.
"Shangguan Xiu... Shangguan Xiu, can you hear me? Please... wuwuwu..."
Regrettably, aside from her shouts and sobs, there were no other sounds around.
An Xiaomian kept crying but didn't dare to stop; she feared that if she did, the profound silence would scare her even more.
With her uninjured hand, she clutched her wounded arm and slowly sat down in the corner against the wall, then broke down into desperate sobs.
