Auston looked at Ruan Tang in surprise, he didn’t expect him to say that.

He had always felt that Ruan Tang was very soft-hearted, and liked to sympathize and help others even if it might cause him trouble. 

In good words, he was considered kind, but in bad words, he was a soft bun that anyone could squeeze.

In the orthodox sense, Ruan Tang was a good man with a saint-like nature that was totally different from him.

Just now, Ruan Tang’s aggressiveness towards Owen allowed him to see another side of him, which refreshed his understanding of Ruan Tang.

But his behavior was still within the normal range.

It wasn’t until Ruan Tang finished his words that Auston suddenly realized that Ruan Tang might be very different from what he had imagined.

This difference made him more and more interested in Ruan Tang.

“After all, the embankment of a thousand miles collapsed because of an ant’s nest, and there are countless great people in history who died at the hands of little people he looked down upon…” 

Ruan Tang didn’t know what Duke Auston was thinking, but he spoke what he thought in his heart.

“It can be seen that no matter what it’s not a good thing to offend big or small people because you don’t know when someone will catch you off guard and stab you from behind.” 

Ruan Tang didn’t know what this mad Duke was thinking, he just wanted to tell him his experience as a normal person.

As an unfavored child who grew up in an aristocratic circle with intense intrigues, Ruan Tang had tasted everything from the warmth to the coldness of human relationships since he was a child.

Ruan Tang knew that he was not a good person, not like a saint, but he had a certain bottom line.

He had read a lot of historical records and knew that many famous and big figures eventually died because of the hatred of little people. 

A certain cruel emperor in history died because he was smothered by a servant who served him while he was sleeping. 

The emperor who was feared by everyone, died such a disgraceful death…

Because of this, Ruan Tang tried to never offend or despise others, even if the other party was just an insignificant person.

Being in the aristocratic circle of the Empire Star, he very well knew that only a few of these big figures had clean hands. 

He didn’t care about Auston killing people, but he didn’t want to see him intentionally torturing others without killing them…

Keeping a person who had been tortured by you by your side, who hates you night and day, was very risky. You don’t know when he would counterattack and stab you.

Maybe Auston, the lunatic, would even enjoy this unknown danger. But in Ruan Tang’s view, this was the most unwise and somewhat suicidal behavior…

Even rabbits bite people when they are in danger, let alone people. 

Today you can crush a person with your strength, but maybe in the future, he would accumulate his strength and could directly put you to death.

This was why Ruan Tang wanted to stop Auston from torturing the servants in the mansion.

He would never intentionally humiliate others or watch it happen in front of him if he wasn’t sure to kill that person.

Killing was nothing more than nodding, but torturing others… was really unnecessary and risky.

Auston didn’t expect Ruan Tang to think like that, he looked at him with even more interest, “They humiliated you for so long, why didn’t I see you take revenge?” 

“How do you know if I have a chance I will not act? I am silent for now, who knows I won’t put them to death in the future?” Ruan Tang calmly looked back at Duke Auston and asked.

Ruan Tang had never been a person who liked to put his hatred and thoughts in the open.

If he hated someone, he would not move that person, for now, he would wait and hit him when the opportunity arrives…

Duke Auston didn’t expect to hear such words from Ruan Tang. 

Hearing those words, his whole body shook, and a strong excitement made him feel as if he was seeing Ruan Tang for the first time.

Auston’s whole body went numb as if he had been electrified, and he couldn’t help but burst out laughing, “Haha—” 

Suddenly, he felt that Ruan Tang had become very interesting, and terribly cute.

Hearing the laugh, Ruan Tang was dumbfounded. He couldn’t understand why Auston laughed so happily as if he had heard some joke.
