[That slight hesitation allowed her to turn the tables on you, taking what she desired. Looking at her beautiful, affectionate face, your blood boiled, and you nearly lost control.]
[Fortunately, reason prevailed, halting you at the final step.]
[You pushed Ruan Xiuxiu away, staring at the girl whose act had sullied the proud Demon Hunting Robe she wore. She licked her lips, her eyes a mix of innocence and some fear, but when she saw your reaction, she smiled freely.]
