Hexin lay on the covers in a daze and was not able to process what just happened.
It was only when she felt a stronghold tightening around her neck that fear began to surface in her eyes and her heart thumped with fright. "It's me, Big Bro Long Yin!"
The bed netting hung low and the lighting inside the bed was a little dim. Long Yin initially did not realize it was Hexin. Only when he heard her voice was he taken aback and immediately released her. The murderous look in his eyes vanished instantly.
"Xinxin?" He looked at the girl he had thrown onto the covers in astonishment.
The stronghold on her neck loosened and Hexin immediately felt weak all over. She lay where she was, unable to recover.
She had clearly felt a murderous intent from Big Bro Long Yin
He must have thought she was an assassin.
The thought that she had nearly died frightened her out of her wits. Her heart was still beating wildly as her chest heaved heavily.
