"Anyone standing on the land of China must abide by China's rules," Xu Ke replied coldly upon hearing Xu Jiahui's words to Lin Mengyao.
During the reply, Xu Ke didn't pause his actions at all. Taking advantage of Xu Jiahui's outburst, which distracted the two people she was ordering around, Xu Ke seized the moment, kicking A Gu and punching the fair-skinned man, successfully pushing them both back a step.
The three who were entangled just moments ago suddenly separated.
A Gu clutched his stomach while the fair-skinned man held his shoulder. At this moment, their looks at Xu Ke no longer carried disdain, but instead were filled with wariness and scrutiny.
Xu Ke was the only one among the three still unscathed, and he now stood beside Lin Mengyao, holding her hand. He turned his face slightly, whispering softly to Lin Mengyao, the tenderness and precious regard in his words adding another layer of chill to Xu Jiahui's already grim expression.
"Slap!"
"Slap!"
