Qin Youbei stopped moving and even stopped breathing, as if she had forgotten how to, or perhaps she was holding her breath. Because of the lack of oxygen, her entire being felt groggy, and in a dazed state, she seemed to feel Gu Xiao loosen his grip on her.
She gasped for air, yet still felt waves of dizziness. Her hand rose unconsciously high in the air, then she swung it fiercely towards Gu Xiao's face.
With a "smack", Gu Xiao's face was slapped to one side, !
Time seemed to stand still at that moment.
Gu Xiao's pupils suddenly contracted, and he looked at her fiercely, his gaze as cold as ice, his expression ominously grim.
Qin Youbei's eyes were half-closed, and her chest heaved violently as her consciousness started to blur.
She plummeted into darkness,
Qin Youbei didn't pass out for long, and when she woke up again, she found herself in bed, and Gu Xiao was gone.
