บท 695: The Fall (9)

This feeling underneath my touch is too real. It does not feel like a dream.

Before Song Qingchun's brain could make the last leap in logic, Su Zhinian seemed to sense something. He released the grip he had on her wrists to pull her deeper into his arms. Then he turned around in midair so that he was the one on the bottom. He was going to use his body as a shield to protect her from the impact.

Being held so closely caused Song Qingchun to tremble. Everything was happening too suddenly. Before she recovered from the shock of her discovery, before she could even understand what he was doing, the two of them landed heavily on the ground.

However, it did not feel like the ground. There was a great bounce following a tough landing. The landing was so rough that Song Qingchun felt like her heart had stopped beating; her consciousness almost snapped and submerged into darkness.
