" Who are you calling a witch?" The expression on Mo Qiang's face worsened as she looked at Xiao Jiao, scaring her so much that the latter ended up crying. It wasn't her fault, if Xiao Jiao had not been hypersensitive to the mom because of getting inside the haunted house along with the fact that they were standing in completely dark surroundings—— she might not have cried.
But with Mo Qiang's expression, the red light and the dark surroundings, everything was so scary that she ended up crying like a startled rabbit.
And she wasn't the only one, Mo Qiang heard another 'EEK' from somewhere behind her and then there was silence.
" Sister, don't be like that," Mo Xifeng cuddled Xiao Jiao when Mo Qiang turned to look behind her and then said with a reproachful expression, " You are scaring our little Xiao Jiao. It is not her fault that your face is so terrifying!"
" You——" Mo Qiang wanted to say something but before she could even bring herself to say a single word, Mo Xifeng opened her monitor and turned the camera towards Mo Qiang such that she could see how scary she looked at the moment.
Mo Qiang: "…." She did look a bit scary.
When Mo Xifeng saw that Mo Qiang was no longer feeling angry and was in fact speechless, she turned her monitor off and then stated in a matter-of-a-fact tone, " You should try to keep your voice to a minimum, the rules state that if either of the contestants screams they are out of the game." She then paused and added, " It will be better if you don't smile or do anything with your face as well. It's good for the hearts of many."
Mo Qiang: "…." I would like to fight with her but I hate to admit that she is right.
" Fine, I would try to keep my face blank then," snapped Mo Qiang as she turned on her heels and then started walking once again.
On the other side of the forest, the assassin who was sent to kill Mo Qiang was hiding behind a tree and shaking from head to foot while speaking to her colleague with the help of her monitor, " I am not doing it! That woman is so scary! You want me to kill her? That woman looks like she eats trolls and babies for breakfast like an evil witch! I am not killing her! What if she kills me instead?"
" You are over-exaggerating," said her partner. " Mo Qiang is only a thug who knows how to use her fists, how can she even be terrifying? You are just making a mountain out of a molehill. Just pick up your knife and stab her! It's not that difficult! We are life assassins, do you know what that means? It means that we are ready to bet our lives on the line to complete a mission. How can you cry like a child just because of a woman?"
The other assassin however did not listen to a thing that her partner said and simply shook her head and put her foot down so hard that she left a mark on the ground.
" I am not doing it," she refused without giving her partner a chance. " If you think that you are so good then you deal with her double one!"
With that, she cancelled her call.
