The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 324 You Lost

Seeing Daniel steadily advancing, Beast genuinely panicked. He knew he couldn't beat this country fellow and definitely didn't want to plunge into the septic tank again. The experience of falling in and swallowing that filth had left him retching more than any bout of drunkenness.

In an attempt to rid himself of the stench glued to his body, he had to scrub down with no less than eight bars of soap. To eradicate the foul taste from his mouth, he went through three tubes of toothpaste.

"Bro, this is all a misunderstanding! It’s all a big misunderstanding!" Beast changed his tune rapidly, offering apologies seeing the tides turn.

"Misunderstanding? You order your guys to aim a dozen guns at me and then call it a misunderstanding? Did you not want my life?"

"Brother, it really is a misunderstanding! I've already taken a dive into the septic tank, please don't make me go again. From now on, I consider you my big brother. Whatever you say, I'll do!"

To show his sincerity, Beast immediately dropped to his knees in front of Daniel after declaring this vow.

"Please spare me!"

Then, turning around, he pled to Jennifer, "I was wrong. I won’t cause trouble for you again. If anyone dares to mess with your factory, I'll deal with them. Please, I’m begging you—have the ‘big brother’ not throw me into the septic tank! The sewage in there, it's just too stinky, I can’t drink it!"

Jennifer was all set to deny any involvement, but then she thought about how Beast used to pester her daily. Now that the country boy had tamed him, silence seemed the best option, knowing that his acknowledgment of Daniel as the big brother meant he wouldn't dare bother her again.

"That's enough, let him go! After all, that septic tank really does stink."

Jennifer vouched for Beast, giving Daniel the nod of approval. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

"Alright! What Jennifer says goes!" Daniel waved dismissively at Beast. “Get lost! If you dare to make trouble here again, I promise to make you drink that septic tank dry.”

"Big brother, I won't do it; never again! I swear I'll never cause trouble again!"

Upon receiving the pardon, Beast hastily took his men and left. With his hands pocketed, Daniel turned to Jennifer with a triumphant grin. "You lost."

"What do you want?"

"We had a wager, remember? Now that you've lost, whatever I ask, you have to agree to."

"What’s your demand?" Jennifer asked, though internally, she was resolved to deny him regardless. She assumed Daniel would ask for something indecent—something she would never agree to.

This scoundrel likely desired her body, and she would never allow herself to be defiled by Daniel.

Instead of a straightforward reply, Daniel offered a riddle. "Take a guess."

"I don't guess riddles! Out with it, or the bet's null and void!"

With that, Jennifer began her countdown, clearly seeking to break her promise.

"Three!"

"Two!"

"One!"
