"She's just a woman, and in my eyes, nothing more than a pet. When a pet disobeys, it needs to be disciplined, and only after enough discipline will it learn to obey." The man's words were spoken slowly, with an air of menace that couldn't be hidden, his eyes fixed on Xu Ke with a bloody gleam. "I'll say it again, if you don't let go, the consequences won't be something you can handle."
"I've heard threats like yours many times, but they all failed. I don't mind if you try, to see if you really have the power to make the consequences unbearable for me." As Xu Ke spoke, he tightened his grip, causing the man's hand to turn a purplish-red due to poor circulation. The veins stood out on the back of his hand, resembling worms under the skin, looking somewhat horrifying.
As the two men were locked in their struggle, Yu Xia blinked twice and slowly turned to the man, saying, "I'm not a pet. Don't talk nonsense, or I'll hit you." Yu Xia raised her hand, mimicking a slapping gesture.
