Kapitel 36: Playing With Vera

Vera smiled smugly, letting out a humph as she said, "You perverted brother-in-law, don't think you can bully me just because I'm young. If you dare try anything, I'll bite you to death and then tell my second sister."

The mention of "bite" and the imagery it evoked made Ryan's mind wander for a moment. Seeing her triumphant expression, Ryan chuckled helplessly. "Baby, are you dog or something?"

"That's right, I am! So what?" she replied, puffing her cheeks in mock indignation.

Seeing Ryan deliberately put on a dejected face, Vera laughed even more happily. "I specialize in biting shameless perverts like you. If I catch one, I bite one!"

Breaking down the word "bite" in this way sparked some rather mischievous thoughts. Watching the feisty little girl act fierce only made her appear more innocent and endearing—her mock threats had no real menace, instead stirring a mischievous curiosity.
