Beautiful.
A beauty so commanding it was oppressive.
A beauty so enchanting it could devour one's soul.
With just one glance, Lin Xiao felt his heart pound. This wasn't infatuation. It was awe, a feeling of being completely stunned by her beauty. Su Qingning was also beautiful, but hers was a devastatingly captivating beauty, full of alluring charm. The beauty of Shen Jingzhe before him, however, was the kind that consumed the soul.
Lin Xiao was shocked and dumbfounded. Panic flashed in Shen Jingzhe's eyes as she frantically retied the thin veil. After taking several deep breaths, she looked at Lin Xiao with eyes filled with towering rage and a horrifying hatred.
Lin Xiao snapped back to his senses. He quickly explained, "I'm sorry, that was crazy of me. I shouldn't have been so curious!"
Although he wasn't afraid of Shen Jingzhe, he knew this was his fault. The chill bursting from her eyes seemed as if it intended to freeze him to death.
