There was no movement in the villa, as if everyone had been frozen in time, and the quietness was somewhat eerie. Ying Qing looked up at the man in front of her and burst into tears: "Mr. Huo, we're okay. Shen Mu has a gun, she..."
Her words got stuck in her throat when she turned around and saw Shen Mu. It was like a fishbone stuck in her throat, causing her great pain and indecision. Shen Mu, who was supposed to have stormed out with a gun to save Ying Qing, was now standing quietly on the stairs, with her hands raised high and a hint of panic in her eyes, as if surrendering.
Her hands were raised high above her head, as if surrendering because of the previous "don't move" command. Her hands were empty, where was the gun? Ying Qing was stunned for a moment, forgetting even her manners, and her voice became sharp and piercing as she asked, "Shen Mu, where's the gun?"
