In the room next door, Huo Zhanting, Su Xingye, and Li Yucheng were about to explode with rage.
But their fury had reached such a peak that the air had fallen utterly silent.
Beneath the silence, however, an even more savage fury surged.
Huo Zhanting slightly lifted the hand he had resting on the coffee table. The next second—
Cracks spiderwebbed out from where his hand had been, spreading across the perfectly smooth surface of the coffee table.
Then, with a CRACK—
—as if it could no longer take the strain.
With a loud SMACK, it shattered completely.
The tabletop broke into pieces, hitting the floor with a heavy THUD.
And that heavy thud...
...instantly snapped Yu Lan out of her dazed confusion.
Yu Lan hastily snatched her hand back from Jun Lin Yuan's grasp, her face flushing slightly.
She then quickly reached out, wanting to pull Jun Lin Yuan to his feet.
"Y-Y-You, get up first."
"Don't do this. We can talk about whatever it is calmly."
