"Holy shit!" Lorin was thrown completely off his feet.
After stumbling to the ground, he belatedly grabbed hold of the nearby control console.
He could only watch, wide-eyed, as Shi Li carved an incredibly difficult arc through the air.
With a series of dazzling and extremely flashy maneuvers, she flew right back to their original position.
That whole display was less about Shi Li proving herself and more about her showing off.
Lorin, whose piloting scores had always been among the best, was shocked to find that he was getting airsick.
Meanwhile, Shi Li was completely unfazed.
Lorin felt as if he had just experienced his own professional Waterloo.
The shock was simply beyond description.
He decided then and there that they would pack up. Tomorrow, after Shi Li's identity information was unsealed, he would take her out under the pretext of an "external inspection."
