Everyone at the dinner table was stunned by this change. Liu Xingnian's face turned pale, and he trembled all over, like a helpless little animal being targeted by a large predator, shaking uncontrollably.
"I know, I understand, I won't do it again."
Xu Milu blinked gently, her soft and harmless demeanor returning, and slowly lowered him down before smiling and patting his collar.
"That's more like it. See, I can still reason with people like you."
Liu Xingnian was so frightened that he couldn't speak. After trembling for a long time, he managed to stammer out, "You wait," but his voice was so thin that it sounded like a mosquito's buzz and was very weak.
No one at the table expected that Xu Milu, who used to be as innocent as a little rabbit, would suddenly erupt, but they all assumed that it was because Liu Hongjun's family was really disgusting.

Old Liu glared at his daughter: "You, all your good fortune in this life rests on these two children. If Junzi's family causes trouble again, you can let Dami take charge—"
Afraid of disturbing Xu Milu, the two lowered their voices, but they didn't notice that Xu Milu, who was sitting in the last row, suddenly opened her eyes, and a pair of golden vertical pupils were reflected in the glass.
