“I won’t let go!” The man looked at her, adding, “Unless you promise me you won’t try to kill yourself!”
Ni Yang let out a deep breath, trying her best to calm down, “Who told you 1 was attempting suicide?”
The man loosened his tie at the neck, speaking somberly, “Just now you were heading towards the river, if that’s not attempting suicide, then what is? If I weren’t there, you’d be an anonymous drowned corpse by now!”
He saved her.
And she, for her part, had returned his favor with hostility!
“Seeing that you are quite pretty, what could have possibly driven you to consider jumping into the river?”
After all this time, it turned out he thought she was about to jump into the river…
Ni Yang looked up at the man, explaining, “1 was just going to fetch a lobster trap from the river, not jumping in. We shouldn’t be touching, can you let go of me now?”
The man still firmly held Ni Yang’s hand, skeptical, “Are you sure you weren’t going to jump in?”
Ni Yang nodded earnestly, “Why would I want to end my life when I’m living just fine?”
“Then swear on it.” The man clearly didn’t believe Ni Yang’s words.
Left with no choice, Ni Yang raised three fingers, sincerely saying, “1 swear!”
Seeing Ni Yang like this, the man reluctantly believed her, “Once I let you go, you’d better not lie to me!”
“Sure!” Ni Yang nodded slightly.
The man loosely let go of her, Ni Yang instantly pulled her hand back. Her skin was naturally fair and would turn red easily just by touching it. The man’s firm squeeze just now had left five distinctive finger marks on her wrist, alarmingly red.
The man also noticed the abnormality on her wrist, promptly apologizing, “I’m sorry, is your wrist alright?”
“It’s fine.” Ni Yang looked up slightly, “You meant well.”
What Ni Yang didn’t expect was her gaze landed on the man’s chest. A bright red bloodstain contrasted sharply on his white shirt, making a striking scene.
Seeing this, Ni Yang felt somewhat flustered, she seemingly acted too impulsively just now and had bitten too hard…
