"Are you not getting off because you want another slap?" James Brown said sternly, his face as dark as that of Bao Gong.
"No, even if you kill me, I won't get off," Charlotte pouted stubbornly, tears in her eyes.
James remembered that rebelliousness was strong in girls of her age; if he kept on with the tough approach, she would definitely stand up to him. So he changed his tone to a softer one and said, "Do you want me to avoid you when I see you in the future?"
Charlotte pouted again, then muttered softly, "It's your fault for being mean to people," and slowly hopped down.
James finally felt a bit relieved and then said to Sarah Grandy, "Sarah, let's go."
