"Stop pretending to be deaf and dumb, if you don't speak, I won't let go." Emperor Yongning's grip tightened a bit, the threat was clear.
No wonder he's the Emperor with the power of life and death, Jun Ning felt his heart tremble under the pressure, fearing that he might be killed in a fit of anger.
After a moment of unease, he reached his free hand towards his waist, seeming to want to take something out. But his expression was conflicted, hesitating for a long time without taking anything out, it seemed that this thing was not simple.
He was still considering whether to take it out.
"Will you speak?" Emperor Yongning's grip tightened again.
Jun Ning felt his wrist was about to be crushed, tears were swirling in his eyes, but he refused to compromise, defiantly saying, "Will you... will you let go?"
Clearly very scared, yet his tone was still quite firm.
The threat might work on a child of his age, but he was facing Emperor Yongning.
Emperor Yongning was unmoved, "...No."
