When the firelight rose, only then did Zui'Er regain her composure.
Everything that had just happened had an enormous impact on her.
She never expected that just trying to light a fire by the stream would attract people looking to cause trouble.
And Ya's reaction was even more shocking; first killing those five, then the woman.
After the killings, he even took everything from the corpses.
This all left Zui'Er profoundly astonished.
"What? Are you scared?"
"No." Zui'Er shook her head firmly, "No matter what you do, I won't be scared!"
Perhaps fearing that Zhao Ya wouldn't believe her, Zui'Er added, "I trust you, Ya!"
Zhao Ya smiled.
He was really worried he might have frightened her again.
But it seemed that this frail-looking young girl was far stronger than he had imagined.
"Those people just now had ill intentions. If I didn't kill them, we could have been the ones dead," Zhao Ya explained after considering his words carefully.
