Wen Tiantian fell from the second floor and landed in Ji Jing Chen's embrace.
The huge impact forced him to take a step back. The pendant hanging on his wrist snapped in a flash and flew away, sliding on the ground for a long distance.
Ji Jingchen looked in the direction of the pendant, a look of panic appearing on his face.
But very quickly, he retracted his gaze and firmly hugged the person in his embrace.
Wen Tiantian closed her eyes. After a while, she did not feel any pain, so she quietly lifted her eyelids. There was still a lingering fear in her heart.
Ji Jingchen tightly held her hand with a hint of anger on his face.
"What the hell are you doing?"
he snapped.
Wen Tiantian looked up and said blankly. I was looking at the carving on the stairs... "
"It directly fell from above? Or do you want to get tired of living? "
Wen Tiantian looked at her current condition. If not for Ji JingChen, she would have broken her bones by now.
"No …"
"I just don't want to see the dead. I can't explain it to your parents."
After speaking with a cold face, Ji Jingchen placed her down on the ground.
The moment her feet touched the ground, Wen Tiantian's body was so weak that she could barely stand. She fell forward and threw herself into Ji Jingchen's arms.
Ji Jingchen only looked at her coldly, not stretching out his hand.
Wen Tiantian held onto his arm, pressing her body closer together. Her face was slightly flushed, but she managed to stabilize herself with much difficulty.
"Sorry …"
Ji Jingchen looked at her from top to bottom, then turned around and walked towards the broken pendant on the ground.
Upon seeing the pendant break into two halves, he frowned and his face darkened.
Wen Tiantian quickly walked over and saw him pick up the necklace.
It seemed to be a photo necklace.
A hollow heart hung from a silver necklace, in which were usually photographs of loved ones.
But now, the necklace had been broken into two pieces. The hollow heart had been knocked into a concave shape, making it impossible to open.
Wen Tiantian was slightly surprised. This must have happened when Ji Jing Chen saved her.
Ji Jingchen had been wearing it the entire time, so it must have been especially important.
"Teacher Ji …"
She had just opened her mouth when Ji Jingchen withdrew his hand and placed the necklace on his palm, avoiding her sight.
Ji Jingchen stood up, his expression remaining indifferent.
"Next time, no one will come to save you."
After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave.
Wen Tiantian hurriedly chased after him.
"Teacher Ji, I can help you take a look at your necklace. Maybe I can even make it again."
Ji Jingchen didn't stop moving. He quickly moved forward with a cold expression on his face.
"Teacher Ji!"
Wen Tiantian quickened her pace and followed beside him.
"I've learned some things. This kind of necklace can be repaired. It won't take too long."
If it wasn't for saving her, the necklace wouldn't have been damaged.
Wen Tiantian had learned some repairing techniques before, so fixing a necklace wasn't difficult.
Ji Jingchen suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Wen Tiantian almost ran into him, but she managed to stand firmly.
"Ji Ning …"
"You can cultivate?" Ji Jingchen interrupted her with a calm voice.
Wen Tiantian gasped for breath.
"I can … I can cultivate."
Ji Jingchen turned and stared at her.
Wen Tiantian instantly tensed up, that gaze seemed to see through her heart.
Her hands were clasped behind her back, and she was sweating with nervousness.
Ji JingChen suddenly stretched out his hand and handed the necklace to her.
"Then I'll let you try."
Wen Tiantian carefully received it and was just about to take a good look when Ji Jingchen lifted his lips and spat out an ice-cold threat.
"If I break a little …"
He did not finish his sentence, but the threat in his tone made everyone tremble.
Wen Tiantian instantly tensed up. When she raised her head, Ji Jingchen had already turned around and left.
