Journey to the End of the Night

Chapter 504: Chapter 499: Candy in the Sleeve

Su Jing replied indifferently and coldly, but did not put him down, nor did she look at him. Her gaze remained steady and forward, as if what she was holding in her arms was just a stone; her expression was unshaken, serious, and cold.

“What are you doing?!” Baili An, frightened by her unpredictable behavior, felt his heart nearly leaping out of his chest as his legs, suspended in the air, flailed about in a panic.

But he quickly realized how childish and ridiculous it was to kick his legs that way, so he immediately straightened them, hugging his sword tightly with eyes wide open.

Finally, Su Jing reacted; she lowered her head and gave him a glance.

Admittedly, the picture of a woman holding a man might seem a bit odd, but at least she was taller than him, and he had a youthful appearance, which made it somewhat acceptable.

But in his tension, he had stiffened his legs so much that he lay straight as a board in her arms, looking like nothing more than a wooden post cradled by this serene and transcendent Sword Immortal.

The scene had gone beyond odd to downright bizarre.

Su Jing seemed unable to hold back a gentle laugh that escaped her lips.

It was a light, almost illusory sound, but the slight upturn of her beautiful eyes was certainly no illusion.

Baili An stiffened even more, suddenly remembering what Li Jiujiu had mentioned about the rumor.

The normally serious and frost-like Su Jing was frightening enough, but a laughing Su Jing was a thousand times more terrifying than her usual self.

Because that meant she was about to go mad.
