While Raelle's words might have crashed Cloe's brain system, it certainly made a wide grin to make its way to Shui Xian's face. And when Ma Jin's eyes suddenly fell on that smiling face, his eyes went round, and instinctively he stepped hard on the brakes.
*Screech!*
The sudden brakes made everyone inside jolt a little. Shui Xian's hand went up to protect Raelle's head but it wasn't even necessary. When Raelle noticed his palm right before her eyes, she tilted her head to look at his worried face.
"Ma Jin!" Shui Xian's voice was low and it felt like he was suppressing some strong emotions.
Ma Jin was taken aback by that tone of his voice. Master Xian always spoke in a monotonous tone. And even then one could feel the pressure. But now that his emotions were leaking out through his voice, one could imagine the cold sweat that drenched Ma Jin's back.
"I'm sorry, Master Xian! It was my fault! I'm extremely sorry!"
