Ning Xia was silent as she deciphered the man's expression; he indeed seemed ignorant, merely taking money to do a job...
Her hands clenched unconsciously, fury rising in her eyes.
To give someone false hope is an exceedingly cruel act. Did he know how long she had waited, how much she had anticipated, only to finally grasp at straws, and it was all just a deception.
It's too much!
Sensing her surging rage, the man trembled violently, his voice shaky, "I've told you everything I know, heroine. You said you wouldn't shoot."
Ning Xia lifted her eyelids slightly, responding, "Yes, I indeed won't shoot!"
She withdrew her hand and slammed the gun onto the table beside her with a smack.
Relieved of the threat to his life, the man couldn't help but exhale deeply. But before he could finish his sigh of relief, he heard Ning Xia's icy voice rise again, "But I didn't say I wouldn't hit you!"
