Huangfu Jingchen's lips twitched, but he said nothing.
For some reason, he found Xia Wenjin's mischievousness quite... endearing.
Xia Wenjin didn't realize that at this moment Huangfu Jingchen thought she was being mischievous. She strode over, wrapped a silver thread around one of the strong men's wrists, then tied his ankles with several loops before moving on to the next one.
As she walked, she said, "Don't underestimate this thread. Although it's thin, if they don't want their hands or feet, they can struggle as much as they like, but wherever they pull, that's where it'll break!"
Huangfu Jingchen's gaze grew deeper. Was she bluffing? When she tied it around the sparrow's leg before, and pulled so hard, didn't the sparrow's leg remain unbroken?
Xia Wenjin's hands were quick and deft, and soon she had everyone tied up with "five flowers binding".
Then, she straightened up, clapped her hands, and said, "All done!"
