As soon as he finished speaking, ignoring his son's contemptuous look, he quietly waved his fist at Little Thirteen from an angle where Zhan Se couldn't see, mimed, 'I'll beat you up,' and without another word, he picked up Zhan Se and walked outside.
"Father Emperor, you're bullying people! Mother, the beast is out of its cage, you need to be careful—"
Little Thirteen's shouts came from behind.
