"Okay, breathe and relax," Xue Ning instructed. "I'll shift it on the count of three. One, -"
Xue Ning grabbed his nose bridge and shifted it on the count of two, and a sharp burst of pain reverberated in Wei Yan's head, forming starbursts behind his eyes. He howled out loud, and more than one old neighbour blinked in their beds, surprised at the unfamiliar sound.
("Mama, I told you there are werewolves living within us!"
"There is no such thing my dear, go back to bed and stop reading those strange foreign stories! I'll take away your computer time if you don't!")
Jingwei hurriedly covered Wei Yan's mouth with his hand, not wanting him to attract unwanted attention, only for Wei Yan to chomp down on his hand as though it was a makeshift cloth gag!
Now Jingwei howled in pain.
("See Mom, you heard that too! It's a new wolf!"
"Werewolves are not real - I'm banning you from the computer!"
"MOM!")
