She recalled the feeling of defusing a bomb on an airplane a few months ago in her mind, her fingertips trembling slightly.
"Cut——!"
"Ruan Qi, your emotions are off! They're not intense enough! And Wei Jiaming, you're crying too miserably, tone it down!"
The clapperboard was sounded, and the third take began.
Ruan Qi looked at the several complex wires in the timer bomb, a mix of trepidation and unease welling up in her bright eyes.
Her lips tightly pursed, her hand holding the tool pliers hesitated.
How should she cut them?
If she cut the wrong one, what would happen to her comrades?
Cold sweat oozed from Ruan Qi's forehead; she took a deep breath and slowly reached out her hand...
"Cut——!"
Jian Guoqiang abruptly stood up, bellowing at the top of his voice, "Are you a piece of wood, Ruan Qi! Do you even know what tension is? That's a bomb! It's about human lives! Were you this calm when you disarmed a bomb on the airplane?!"
Ruan Qi silently nodded her head.
