Screams echoed within the room, and for the first time, Dong Buwang was so close to death that he struggled, soaking a large patch at the crotch of his pants.

"Please, let me go, I...I...have money..."

At this moment, dignity about wetting himself was not a concern as Dong Buwang felt Xu Fan's increasingly cruel punishment and pleaded with all his might.

He just hoped Xu Fan would spare him.

"Just because you have money, you think you can act recklessly without consequence?"

Being so adept at opening others' doors, it was clear this wasn't the first time for Dong Buwang.

Relying on his wealth, he behaved recklessly, resolving conflicts with money whenever challenged; such were the tactics of Dong Buwang.

Xu Fan's face grew darker and he didn't stop because of the increasingly high amount of money Dong Buwang offered; he directly crippled the lower half of his body.

Killing him would only let him off too easily; perhaps this punishment was more fitting.

At that moment, Xu Fan released the Jade Silkworm to cling to Dong Buwang's arm. Stimulated by the venom of the Jade Silkworm, Dong Buwang, in immense pain, couldn't even faint.

"You...you..."

His teeth chattered, and pain crashed over him like a tide, assaulting every nerve in Dong Buwang's body. Enraged, he lacked the strength to retaliate.

And he was powerless to do so.

"Not satisfied?"

"Want to kill me for revenge?"

Xu Fan quietly faced Dong Buwang, who was full of hatred, and spoke.

Good or evil eventually returns; when Dong Buwang wantonly misbehaved, weren't the victims feeling the same?

"Do you have the strength for it?"

Coldly glancing at Dong Buwang, Xu Fan slapped his face.

A crisp slap sounded like the final straw that broke the camel's back, gradually replacing the hatred in Dong Buwang's eyes with fear.

"This Jade Cold Poison acts up every seven days, and the pain during an attack is no less intense than what you're feeling right now."

At that moment, Xu Fan casually explained the effects of the Jade Silkworm's poison injected into his body and watched his eyes fill with increasing fear. Narrowing his eyes, he said, "With your nature, you probably don't have the courage to kill yourself, let alone endure the agony this poison will cause."

"Now, you only have one way out, grovel before me like a dog, begging for mercy."

"..."

Indeed, as Xu Fan had said, Dong Buwang didn't have the courage to seek death, let alone endure such excruciating torment.

Looking at Xu Fan, he gasped for air, summoning his last bit of strength just to open his mouth.

"Woof!"

"Woof woof!"

Surviving seemed better than dying to the weak, especially now as Dong Buwang had completely broken down.

At that moment, he only wished he had a tail on his back to make his performance even more convincingly servile.

Dong Buwang was nothing but a complete coward. Killing him would be dirtying his own hands, Xu Fan looked at him disdainfully and spat out a word.

"Scram."

"Woof woof!"

Too caught up in his act, Dong Buwang howled at his own entourage.

Now, covered in bruises, how could he even walk out of the room on his own?

Fortunately, being Dong Buwang's cronies, these few managed to guess what their young master implied by speaking in foreign tongues.

Bearing the pain, they picked up Dong Buwang and dejectedly rolled out of Xu Fan's room."

"Phew..."

At that time, Xu Fan let out a long sigh.

Now having control over Dong Buwang's life, he believed giving him another hundred doses of courage wouldn't dare disturb him again.

He walked over to Miaomiao, smiling, and fearfully, she hugged him tight.

"Did Miaomiao get scared?"

Though what Dong Buwang did justified his methods, Xu Fan thought they might have been too frightening for Miaomiao.

After all, as just an ordinary girl, witnessing all this might have truly frightened her.

"Next time, I'll try not to scare you."

He stroked Miaomiao's back, hoping to make her feel better.

Uh?

At that moment, however, he noticed Miaomiao, with her neck craned, kissed him on the cheek.

"Miaomiao wasn't scared."

"Qian Fan brother, you are Miaomiao's hero."

Miaomiao lovingly gazed at Xu Fan and spoke.

She remembered the last time, at the Qinhuai River in Jinling, Xu Fan had protected her just like this.

Perhaps to others, Xu Fan's methods seemed overly brutal, but Miaomiao knew in her heart that this was his way of being gentle to her.

"Qian Fan brother, if you become a demon, Miaomiao is willing to fall with you."

Xu Fan didn't know how much courage it took for an ordinary girl like Miaomiao to say such words. At that moment, looking at Miaomiao in his arms, Xu Fan felt she had become even more beautiful.

"Silly Miaomiao."

"Qian Fan brother..."

A surge of inexplicable impulse rose to her throat as Miaomiao looked at Xu Fan, her eyes filled with affection, like a lotus blooming.

Before coming, she had been indecisive, unsure if her actions were too impulsive, especially for a girl, as such behavior was indeed not very appropriate.

But at that moment, she had dropped all reservations.

What does being reserved or unrestrained matter?

She just wanted to wake up with the one she liked.

She then purposefully turned off the room's light, lay on the bed, closed her eyes, and just waited for Xu Fan.

Her heart was nervous and expectant.

But to her puzzlement, Xu Fan only kissed her once.

"Qian Fan brother."

"Don't you like Miaomiao..."

"Silly Miaomiao."

Looking at the somewhat aggrieved Miaomiao, Xu Fan smiled and stroked her long hair.

He could tell she was fully determined to give herself to him.

However, Xu Fan felt that tonight was not suitable.

"Next time, brother will 'eat' Miaomiao."
