Venerable Demon King & The Doting Immortal (QT) novel Chapter 204

Chapter 204: Warning to Xiang Yu

Xiang Yu’s surprise deepened, though he kept his face composed. "Why me? I’m not good at teaching others."

Han Jing smiled a calculated expression. "Don’t sell yourself short. I will pay you well for it."

Xiang Yu didn’t relish the idea of dealing with Han Jia, but he disliked the thought of dealing with Han Jing even more. He decided it would be best to teach Han Jia quickly and return to his own affairs, particularly to pick up the twins.

"You are excellent with firearms, and you must be good at teaching," Han Jing continued, his voice smooth. "I heard you have twin girls so you must be a very patient man."

The mention of his two little cuties was deliberate, a thinly veiled threat. Xiang Yu knew it, and so did Han Jing. This was a way to remind Xiang Yu that Han Jing was aware of what he valued most.

Han Jing wanted to provoke a reaction, to see something other than cold indifference in Xiang Yu’s eyes. He wanted to see fear, anxiety, anything that would give him an edge.

But Xiang Yu’s gaze remained steady, his expression unchanged. The same indifference stared back at Han Jing, who couldn’t help but admire Xiang Yu’s fearlessness. Perhaps Xiang Yu didn’t care about those girls as much as he thought, or perhaps he was simply that good at hiding his emotions.

Han Jing leaned back, a small smile playing on his lips. "So, will you do it?" he asked, his tone almost casual.

Xiang Yu took a slow sip from his glass, his eyes never leaving Han Jing’s. He showed no reaction, his face a mask of calm indifference. Years of harsh upbringing in that place had taught him to conceal his true emotions.

But inside, he was seething with rage. If Han Jing dared to lay a hand on Lian and Mei, he would make him regret it in ways unimaginable. He took another sip of his drink, the cool liquid doing little to quench the fire within him. "Alright, I will teach him," he said, his voice steady.

Their eyes locked, a silent battle of wills playing out between them. Han Jing finally broke the silence. "Good. He is upstairs, third door on the left."

Xiang Yu nodded and rose from his seat. As he turned to leave, Han Jing’s voice stopped him. "Xiang Yu."

He turned back, his expression still unreadable. "Be gentle with him," Han Jing said, a hint of amusement in his voice. "He is a little spoiled."
