"STOP THIS MADNESS NOW!!"
Mr. Ruiqing roared.
Great, another one. Could someone just kill me already?!
The sound of his voice scratched against my eardrums, as I failed to maintain any semblance of a steady breath.
What was going to happen now?
Mr. Ruiqing looked like a smudge in my vision, and every movement of his was a blur. He wasted no time, jumping off Mr. Yichen on the shards of wood, charging at Mr. Feng and me with full force.
I guess he was the one going to end it all.
I shuddered at every clap of his feet against the marbled floor as he got closer and closer, shutting my eyes as I braced myself for the impact. If this was their sick way of paying me back then, so be it.
I'd had about enough of this.
Then,
SLAM!
Just inches away from me, a gust of wind formed, blowing my hair out of my face. The chair I was seated on rattled beneath me.
My eyes snapped open when I didn't feel the pain I was anticipating.
Was I already dead?
