Marun confirmed, "Yes."
At this moment, Zhou Tianci felt a vague unease, as if some bad premonition was quietly spreading in his heart.
"good!"
Chen Zhennan's lips curled into a cold smile as he turned to face Zhou Tianci and suddenly stomped on the floor tile.
With a crisp "crack," the floor tile instantly caved in, and the surrounding air seemed to freeze, creating a tense atmosphere.
