Xiao Ming's voice wasn't loud, yet Jiang Nanxi felt a buzzing in her ears.
She had just been crushed by the destruction of her false pride, and now she was being forced to confront the heaviest burden in her heart.
Beyond the fear and discomfort, there was a faint, inexplicable excitement, much like a middle schooler who knew they would get a beating, but still couldn't help feeling tempted by a classmate's invitation to pull an all-nighter.
"Can't do it?" Xiao Ming asked.
"Sir, I... Although that person is just a dog of the Jiang family, being the person in charge of an entire province's industry means he's also part of the family core,"
Jiang Nanxi explained, suppressing the turmoil within her heart, "Killing him for no reason will definitely infuriate my father, and the consequences are unpredictable."
Xiao Ming shook his head, "That's not for you to consider. Tell me, do you want to kill him?"
Jiang Nanxi pursed her lips, "Yes."
"Then go and kill."
