外遇的好日子

"I am going to take care of her," Nyx declared with determination.

Her words made Xia Tian\'s grin widen with craziness. Did she really think he would allow her to do as she pleased?

"Oh, but when did I say you could do it?" Xia Tian grabbed Nyx by the neck and spoke, his grip making her feel suffocated. Though she had the power to turn him to ash a thousand times over, to the surprise of Wang Wenshu and Meng Hui, all she did was struggle for her breath.

"Do you really think I would let you disturb me as you please, huh?" Xia Tian spoke, maintaining creepy eye contact with her.

"Uuuu*Choking*..." Nyx\'s toes trembled as she sat on her knees in the bed next to him.

As Nyx fought for breath, her struggling sounds grew louder and more desperate. Her chest rose and fell rapidly, each gasp for air more labored than the last. She made guttural, rasping noises as Xia Tian\'s grip tightened around her neck, her body writhing in agony as she fought to stay conscious.

Wang Wenshu and Meng Hui watched on in horror, unable to move or speak as they witnessed Nyx\'s struggle. Her face turned a deep shade of red, her eyes bulging with the effort of trying to breathe.

Xia Tian\'s cruel smile only grew wider as he watched Nyx\'s desperate struggle. He relished in the fear he could see in her eyes, the way her body shook with each gasp for air.

Finally, after what felt like an eternity, Xia Tian released his grip on Nyx\'s neck. She collapsed onto the bed, coughing and gasping for air. Tears streamed down her face as she struggled to catch her breath.

"You... you," she gasped, her voice hoarse and weak. "How could you do that to me?"

It was clear she was starting to lose control. There was still a part of her arrogance that sprouted out of Xia Tian, being forced to a vulnerable state like this, definitely made her feel ashamed.

Even her eyes started to glow with a sinister light, making the whole Xia Family feel an invisible pressure weighing on them. The entire Ancient Xia Realm suddenly felt enveloped by an invisible pressure, ready to crush it into grains at any moment.

The cute and yielding personality disappeared completely, making her look like an old monstrous cultivator that could destroy realms with a flick of her finger.

Xia Tian did not fear her; rather, he felt amused by the small break in her usual character. His eyes glinted with amusement as he looked down at her. "I did it because I can," he said. "And because I wanted to test you, to see if you have what it takes to serve me. I have no use for weaklings, Nyx. If you can\'t even handle a little bit of pain, how do you expect to survive?"

Suddenly, Xia Tian smiled. "But, if you believe that I would let you handle this woman, then you are not wrong," he continued.

His words caused Nyx\'s eyes to widen. Even for her, predicting him was harder than she ever thought.

"But, if you can\'t make her submit, then you will be taking her place. Remember that, little girl, before taking any next step," he warned, making Nyx narrow her eyes.

Even if she failed, all she had to do was endure the pain of torture. Unlike Wang Wenshu, she wouldn\'t die even if her body was no more. In Xia Tian\'s terms, he indeed gave her leeway.

Not to forget, she felt he was testing her.

Nyx narrowed her eyes and stared at Wang Wenshu, determined to prove him wrong. She would show him that she was strong enough to handle anything he could throw at her.

It was clear that even though she began to lose control in the end, she was still listening to him clearly and following the rules. One of them was no use of powers when he was disciplining them. So earlier, even though she felt suffocated, she did not use her powers, reducing her to the stage of powerless mortals.

The marks on her neck healed quickly, showing that her body was far superior to that of ordinary mortals even without using any powers. Xia Tian looked at her with interest, wondering how she would break Wang Wenshu\'s will

Wang Wenshu looked at Nyx with fear in her eyes as she trembled and muttered, "K-Kill me!"

But Nyx, with a hint of arrogance, replied, "Who allowed you to order me? If you want to die, I would gladly do it, but you won\'t be alone."

"What do you mean?" asked Wang Wenshu with a quiver in her voice.

Nyx then conjured a transparent screen above Wang Wenshu, which showed Xia Leng, who was searching for the source of a sudden murderous aura.

"I will kill you, but he will die along with you. Now, his life and death are in your hands," Nyx said, smiling faintly.

Wang Wenshu pressed her lips together and fell silent, gathering her strength to heal herself.

Nyx\'s words made her rethink her decision. She would rather die than betray her husband and earn the title of an unfaithful wife.

But if her actions caused her husband to die along with her, would she still be faithful?

Nyx could see the hesitation on Wang Wenshu\'s face. A few more transparent screens appeared above her, showing Xia Ying and Xia Chen practicing a set of exercises in a strange environment that appeared to be a sect in the Sacred Sky Jade Realm.

Wang Wenshu\'s heartbeat raced as she looked at the screens in fear, and Nyx spoke emotionlessly, "They will die along with you, and it won\'t be pleasant for them at all. Now, you decide whether you want to bring your whole family to ruin due to your stupidity or bend your head and save them."

Nyx waited for Wang Wenshu\'s decision. If this woman hesitated further, Nyx was ready to slowly torture Xia Ying and Xia Chen on the screens to make her yield.

Wang Wenshu glanced at Xia Tian with panic in her eyes. "Y-You won\'t let her kill Ying\'er, will you?" she asked in a hurried tone.

Xia Tian shrugged indifferently. "She kills whom she likes. Who am I to stop her?"

His words caused unprecedented chaos in Wang Wenshu\'s mind. If it was only about her life and death, she was fine with dying. But now, what was the use of sacrificing herself if her small world, which she had created, was going to be destroyed along with her?

Feeling humbled, she lowered her head and said, "I accept to serve you." Her hands were clenched into fists, and her voice was filled with defeat.

But right after the words were spoken, Xia Tian waved his hands, and a sword made of pure qi shot towards one of the portals. It instantly slashed through Xia Chen\'s legs, severing them in half.

"Good," Xia Tian nodded, without minding that he had just severed the legs of her son.

Wang Wenshu was left shocked. "Why?" Her eyes shook violently, unable to comprehend the current situation. Hadn\'t she already surrendered? Even Nyx looked at Xia Tian with a strange expression, unable to understand why he suddenly decided to do it and what he hoped to accomplish by it.

Although Nyx managed to subdue Wang Wenshu with relative ease, she still couldn\'t match the level of control her father had over people. It was his unpredictable actions that made him the most dangerous. While one might think he was just having fun, he could influence them without even realizing it.

By slashing Xia Chen\'s legs, Xia Tian had taught Wang Wenshu that she had no right to negotiate. This moment would be forever etched in her memory, and she would think twice before trying to negotiate again. If Xia Tian hadn\'t taken such drastic action, she might have tried to negotiate in the future, but now she knew that hesitation would come with consequences.

This technique of creating an unconscious belief can be employed by both employers and employees in the workplace. It is a subtle but effective way of influencing behavior and ensuring that everyone understands the consequences of their actions.

Let\'s say an employee approaches their employer requesting a day off. The employer may approve the request, but they could also say, "Mr. XXX, I approve your leave, but please keep in mind that our company is expecting extra orders on the upcoming Friday. I hope I can count on you to assist the company during these busy times."

Even though a certain number of paid leaves are allowed in an organization, the employer is subtly implying that Mr. XXX will need to work overtime on another day to make up for his absence. This creates an unconscious belief in Mr. XXX\'s mind that taking leave comes at a cost, which may discourage him from asking for leave in the future.

This is one way managers can discourage employees from taking their paid leave entitlements.

This is a tactic that can also be used by employees. For example, when a manager asks something like, "Mr. David, we\'re receiving work from our overseas branch today. You might have to work overtime," instead of simply agreeing, David can say, "Sure, sir. I\'m always willing to assist the company whenever it needs me." The manager would likely be pleased with his response, saying something like, "That\'s the spirit! Everyone should learn from you, David!"

Then, David can "play his card." He can pretend to turn around and leave, but then stop and turn back to face the manager. "Umm... sir, I just remembered something. I have a date with Lissa this coming Monday. Would it be alright if I could leave early that day?"

The manager may initially be flustered by David\'s request, but will likely agree to it. However, once David is gone, there will be an unconscious belief in the manager\'s mind that while he can ask David to work overtime, it will come at a price. The next time the manager asks David to work overtime, he will remember the previous request and its consequences.

These are small tricks, but if you learn them, they can make your life easier.

If you don\'t want other to take advantage of you learn this technique and engrave it into your unconscious habits.

In certain cases, after a one-night stand, the girl may wake up early in the morning and leave some cash on the table. This money signifies that the previous night was nothing more than a transaction and the man should forget about it. Even if the man sees the same girl in public, he must behave like he has never seen her before because the transaction has ended.

However, it\'s important to note that this technique can also be used by men to save themselves, but it may trigger the woman\'s fragile ego.

At the end of the day, never let anyone take advantage of you, always let them know there is a price...
