The loud noise drew everyone’s attention at the party. Jin Bao lay in a heap of broken glass, dark red liquid mixing with wine spreading out into a bright red pool beneath him. Jin Bao frowned and moaned repeatedly, looking utterly pitiful.

Lin Mengyao suddenly clutched Xu Ke’s sleeve tightly, her heart jumping into her throat, her eyes filled with panic.

"Xu Ke, you should go, I’ll handle this." It seemed like a long time had passed, but it was just a moment. Lin Mengyao snapped out of her thoughts, pulled Xu Ke twice forcefully to focus his attention on her, leaned into his ear, and whispered with a slight tremor in her voice.

"Don’t worry about me, I can handle this little issue myself, hmm?" Xu Ke, hearing Lin Mengyao’s proud words, felt a warmth in his heart. He pinched Lin Mengyao’s smooth cheek with a voice laced with a smile.

When have you ever seen me do something uncertain? A mighty dragon cannot defeat a local snake, that’s because this dragon isn’t strong enough, and your husband, as this dragon, can’t be easily dealt with by this little serpent from the Jin family." Xu Ke tucked Lin Mengyao’s stray hair behind her ear, speaking in a gentle tone.
