Si Mingjing ruthlessly pried the man's imprisoning hands apart, one finger at a time. With each finger she released, the man's brow furrowed deeper, as if accusing her of being heartless.
Finally, she broke completely free.
Si Mingjing fled in a panic.
As she opened the door, Ye Shen, who was leaning against the outer wall chewing a mint, looked at her. "Miss Si, how did it go?"
"He should be much better now. There won't be any issues tonight. And don't you dare knock on my door again, or I'll give you a dose of poison that will leave you without descendants!" Si Mingjing's tone was suddenly incredibly ferocious.
Ye Shen, taken aback by her outburst, noticed her flushed face. "Miss Si, why is your face so red?" he asked, curious.
Si Mingjing quickly darted away, ignoring Ye Shen completely.
Even though her Dragon Horns were hidden, the man had touched them for quite a while, and now her body was thrumming with an almost uncontrollable restlessness.
