Ruan Tianling asked her in a good-natured way, not immediately revealing his stern expression.
Jian Yufei did not like being so close to him. Her eyebrows delicately furrowed as she gently stepped back, punctuating her distance with her cold statement, "Why should I be afraid of you? I have nothing to do with you. I don't believe that you could act recklessly without impunity!"
The man chuckled softly, thinking that the woman in front of him was overly naive.
Indeed, he would not blatantly act without restraint, but he had plenty of ways to deal with them. His gaze was mysterious, a faint smirk playing on his lips. Ruan Tianling reached out to touch her face, but she evaded him with disgust.
It didn't bother him. He gathered a strand of her hair between his fingers, leaning into her slightly as he whispered, "Do you understand what it means to win without bloodshed?"
To win without bloodshed means to win easily without combat.
