Chapter 1832: Just a bump

THUD!

Zoren winced at the crushing weight on him, his back hitting the floor behind the counter. He grunted and clutched the person’s shoulder.

"You—"

"Hehe."

His brows rose, and he opened his eyes at the wicked yet playful giggle that caressed his ears in this gun-infested battleground. His vision was slightly blurry, taking its time to get a clearer look at the face hovering over his.

As soon as he got clarity on who had just jumped on him, his heart clenched. His eyes were wide, almost in disbelief at the person on top of him. The crushing weight was a tell, but somehow, he wanted to be sure.
