Ye Xingguang was taken aback: "..."
Was this man... worried about her?
She fell silent instantly, letting the man fiercely pull her into his embrace. She felt the tangible concern from him. After thinking for a moment, she quietly said, "Don't worry, I'm okay. I only charged in because I'm confident in myself. Otherwise do you think I'm foolish? To risk my own safety for your sake and to rescue your brother? I'm not crazy."
She was not an ordinary person. She possessed both human and mermaid genes, with the mermaid genes greatly diminishing her fear of fire.
To her, the threat of fire was lesser than that of a cup of hot water. A cup of hot water spilling on her skin might cause it to blister, but she was capable of running in the midst of flames without easily being burnt. The thick smoke had nearly choked her to death though.
