Thinking about it any longer would make her feel like collapsing.
And being alone, in such a cold and dangerous situation, her nerves were truly stretched thin.

Qiao Xiguan took a deep breath and retreated into a corner.
She couldn't go to that exit now; Tom was standing there and could easily be discovered.
She looked around, scanning from side to side.
