When Jian Dan woke up, she found herself tied to a stone pillar. She struggled for a moment and realized the bindings were quite tight; it seemed impossible to break free.
Jian Dan turned her gaze toward the person sitting in front of herâ¦
However, there wasnât a trace of fear on Jian Danâs face, but rather, she looked as if she was watching an entertaining show.
âIn such a situation, you can actually manage to laugh?â Tan Anqi stood up, walked over to Jian Dan, and waved a sharp dagger in front of her eyes.
âIf I donât laugh, should I cry instead?â Jian Dan asked, smiling.
âShouldnât you be crying in such a scene? And not just crying, but wailing bitterly, begging me for mercy and pleading for your release!â
âHeh,â Jian Dan snorted coldly, âI? I will definitely not beg you for mercy. However, whether youâll beg me for mercy later, thatâs not so certain!â Jian Dan said elegantly, smiling without any sign of worry.
(As Chu Liyuanâs woman, Jian Dan had seen her fair share of grand scenes. Such a minor situation was no longer enough to frighten her.)
âHahaha, you think Iâll beg you for mercy? You must still be dreaming!â Tan Anqi laughed wildly, thinking she had heard the joke of the century.
Jian Dan observed her triumphant demeanor without offering any explanation.
When the time came to slap someone in the face, she would know who the real joke was.
This kind of thing had happened many times before, hadnât it? Every person she had captured had, without exception, cried and hoped for release, which gave her an even greater sense of superiority.
But Jian Dan was different; not only did she not cry or make a fuss, she was completely indifferent, which particularly annoyed Tan Anqi, making her feel as if her authority was being challenged.
Seeing Tan Anqi suddenly not laughing anymore, Jian Dan calmly spoke, âWhatâs the matter? Tired of laughing?â
The calmer Jian Dan was, the angrier Tan Anqi became. âIt seems that without getting rough with you, you wonât realize how formidable I am!â Tan Anqi glared at Jian Dan with malice.
Jian Dan looked at Tan Anqi and said with a smile, âI just hope you wonât regret your actions later on!â
âRegret? The word âregretâ doesnât exist in my dictionary!â
âThen perhaps âregretâ will be the only word left in your dictionary soon,â Jian Danâs gaze toward Tan Anqi grew colder.
âLetâs see whose dictionary ends up with only that word!â Tan Anqiâs tone was full of spite.
âWe shall see!â Jian Danâs demeanor returned to its previous nonchalance.
âStrip her!â Tan Anqi was now too infuriated by Jian Dan to worry about slowly playing games with her.
Tan Anqi took a seat in front of Jian Dan and instructed the two burly men beside her.
One of the men slowly approached Jian Dan, but just as he was about to touch her, Jian Dan swiftly lifted a foot and knocked the man to the ground.
The force of Jian Danâs kick was no joke, and it hit the man squarely in a very delicate spot.
At that moment, he was writhing in pain on the ground!
Jian Dan looked at the man rolling around on the ground and sneered, âIt seems your dog-biting skills arenât up to snuff, eh!â
The other man, seeing his brother hurt, furiously approached Jian Dan.
Having learned from what happened earlier, the man was on guard as he approached Jian Dan.
After dodging Jian Danâs attack, he grabbed hold of her clothesâ¦
But the next second, Jian Danâs clothes were intact, and the burly man was sent flying far away, lying on the ground unable to move.
Tan Anqi was completely stunned by this scene.
Looking at the man who had suddenly appeared ~
His skin was abnormally pale, and coupled with his exceedingly beautiful features, he resembled a vampire from an American TV series.
Jian Dan also looked at the suddenly appeared man with a puzzled gazeâ¦
