Li Lei took a few steps forward and held her in his arms for a long while.

His expression darkened a little, but he managed to force a smile. "So what? When you were in trouble, he was nowhere near as quick as me in saving you." He turned one round on the spot. "Xiao Ling, my disguise is great, isn't it? We're here to get you out."

His mannerism and attitude towards her allowed her to feel at ease around him.
