"You…" Overcome with anger upon hearing the mockery around her, Lun You instantly lost her reason, completely forgetting her parents' countless warnings and raised her hand to strike Ling Xi.
"Lun You, dare to lay a hand on her and see what happens." Ling Miaomiao's eyes and hands were quick as she tried to rush in front of Ling Xi to protect her, yet she was firmly held back by Ling Xi herself.
Cu Bīng's eyes remained calm as they watched Lun You. Ling Xi didn't move at all, letting the other's hand slowly approach her.
As Lun You looked into those calm, cold eyes of Ling Xi, her descending slap began to slow, her body involuntarily beginning to shiver from cold, subconsciously wishing to retract her hand.
Unfortunately, just as she was about to pull back, her hand was caught by a larger one and then forcefully pushed, sending Lun You stumbling backward.
Falling onto the ground, Lun You looked up, shocked at the person who owned the large hand, disbelief filling her eyes.
