A Farm Girl's Splendid Life

The man never expected that those delicate hands would conceal something deadly. Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through his neck and he shoved Gu Tang away. Gu Tang was knocked off the bed and landed hard on her butt, but all her attention was fixed on the man, or rather, on the peony hairpin stuck halfway into his neck.

The man was in agony, his face filled with terror. Fear of death kept him from touching the hairpin, but Gu Tang gave him no chance to get up. She scrambled from the floor and threw herself onto the bed. This time, she pinned the man down. Her movements flowed together as she swiftly grabbed the end of the hairpin and yanked it out. Blood spurted from the carotid artery, splashing all over her, but Gu Tang dared not let her guard down. She used all her strength to hold down the man's desperate struggles until he finally stopped moving.
