Xie Xun drew his sword, while Fang Lingjun sat in the carriage, looking out with worry etched across her face. Xiaoqi furrowed his brows, clearly not expecting Xie Xun to chase after them. He hastily said, "Sister, untie me."
"No!" Fang Lingjun shouted back at her younger brother, staying cautious. Without her elder brother's orders, she would never untie Xiaoqi.
Xiaoqi growled in frustration, "How can Brother possibly defeat Xie Xun on his own?"
"As if you'd help him."
"...!" Xiaoqi's anger boiled over. He had no intentions of helping Fang Chuning, nor Xie Xun either. If Fang Lingjun untied him, he would simply seize the opportunity to escape.
