Unforeseen Circumstance

The next second. 

Bam!

With a bullet hitting the incense burner, it collapsed and sent the ashes flying everywhere. 

As though hit with a pause button, the crowd ensued with shrieks of terror and scrambled away for their lives. 

Shen Xi inhaled and smelled blood, but before she could say anything, the man scooped her for another twirl.

Gunshots were heard on repeat in the cold air.

Some were screaming while others were shot to the ground. Everyone was trying to get away without knowing what was going on. After all, no one had ever experienced a daylight shooting. 

It happened in a split second. 

Silence befell after a round of gunshots. 

Wanting to move, Shen Xi cried with worry, "Brother." 

"It's okay." Li Yuan held Shen Xi and buried her head against his head while his other hand blocked her ears. His chilling eyes, bearing the ruthless bloodthirst from hell, stared into a distance.
