THUD!
Gao Hongquan dropped to his knees, wailing, "I wouldn't dare! I wouldn't dare!"
How could he dare have any objections? His very life was still in Ye Xiu's hands.
"It wouldn't matter if you did," Ye Xiu said with a cold laugh, then shouted, "Su Mo, come over and pour my wine."
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Su Mo stumbled over, picking up the wine bottle with trembling hands to pour for Ye Xiu.
"Steady your hands," Ye Xiu said coolly. "If you spill a single drop, I'll chop you into pieces."
Su Mo shuddered with fright. He took one deep breath, then a second, and a third, desperately trying to suppress the terror gripping him. Forcing his hands to steady, he slowly, carefully, poured the wine into Ye Xiu's cup.
Only when the cup was full, and he confirmed that not a single drop had been spilled, did Su Mo let out a secret sigh of relief.
Ye Xiu drained the cup in a single gulp, set it back on the table, and said, "Fill it up again!"
