The sound was so loud and crisp that it sent chills down everyone's spine.
"It feels like someone has cracked my skull open."
"Is my head still there? My head feels buzzing."
"For a moment, I didn't know whether to sympathize with the crab or start drooling."
"Isn't anyone concerned about the princess's reputation?"
"There's no blood, is there?"
The crab's claws loosened, and its huge body slammed heavily onto the river surface, lying dead belly up.
Yan Jin reached out and picked it up without any hesitation, nodding in satisfaction. "Hmm, it just fainted, but it still tastes fresh."
Shui Xinlan felt a chill run down her spine when she heard Yan Jin's words. She shrank back behind Shui Jianglan and swallowed hard.
At this moment, she desperately wanted to know where she had gotten the courage to fight this terrifying woman before. How lucky she was that she hadn't been killed by this horrible woman.
Yan Jin had no time to pay attention to her anymore, and turned away with the crabs in her arms.
With tears streaming down her face and a look of grievance and defeat on her face, Shui Xinlan said to Shui Jianglan, "Brother, I will never go against Yan Jin again. She is too terrible. She is not a woman at all."
"..." Shui Jianglan remained silent for a long time, then patted Shui Xinlan's shoulder to comfort her, "We are normal people, we can't compare ourselves to those abnormal people. If you see them in the future, stay far away, understand?"
"Okay, I understand." Shui Xinlan nodded solemnly. Oh... Although the hammer didn't hit her directly, the tip of her tail took all the force.
At that moment, Shui Xinlan could no longer feel the tip of her tail; she felt as if she had been shattered by the shock.
She felt that Yan Jin wasn't hammering a crab, but rather her—a hammer that seemed to strike her soul.
Ugh...
At that moment, Shui Xinlan was truly afraid, a fear that came from the depths of her soul.
"Hiss, how ruthless, a woman who shows no mercy whatsoever."
"It feels like His Excellency the Duke isn't hammering crabs, but rather people."
"They were quick, accurate, and ruthless in their actions."
When Shui Xinlan calmed down and walked over to Yan Jin with her brother and everyone else, she continued to swallow hard.
They were all trembling, wishing they could shrink back and be as timid as possible. Ugh... it was terrifying.
There, in a large, transparent glass pot, the edge of a cloth was filled with boiling water, and on top of it was a steamer basket. Inside the basket, a large crab was turned upside down, belly up.
The water below was boiling, and the crabs above struggled even more fiercely, all their limbs flailing about, trying to turn over, but there wasn't enough space.
Trying to kick off the pot lid and jump out, Yan Jin pressed down on the lid's handle with one finger, but the lid didn't budge.
The crab struggled in vain, its body gradually turning from its original bluish-gray color to a tinge of red, and slowly, little by little, it began to turn red.
The crab's struggles gradually weakened, and finally, it stopped moving completely. Yan Jin's hand also loosened its grip.
"..."
In the eerie silence, someone swallowed hard and secretly wiped the cold sweat from their forehead. My God, that's terrifying.
"Wow..." Shui Xinlan's psychological defenses completely collapsed, and she burst into tears, "Yan Jin, this is a threat, a silent threat."
"What did I threaten?" Yan Jin looked at Shui Xinlan with a puzzled expression, completely unable to understand the little princess's thought process.
"If I don't behave, will you steam me like this crab?"
