The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 877

Daniel knew exactly where Dog's confidence came from, and he was well aware that Dog's robe was specially made. However, he believed that as long as he wanted to, there was nothing he couldn't ignite—even water could burn like gasoline in his hands.

Turning to Jax, Daniel said with a smile, “Jax, your teeth are blacker than coal! I can tell you’ve been smoking for decades. You must have a lighter in your pocket—let me borrow it!”

“Why would I lend you a lighter? I won’t!”

Jax’s refusal surprised Daniel. But he recognized that he wasn’t Jax’s superior and had no authority to order him around. So, he turned to Chloe, grinning as he asked, “Chloe, can you help me borrow Jax’s lighter? He’s refusing!”

“You little brat, can’t even borrow a lighter? What a fool!”

Chloe replied with a teasing tone, then turned to Jax and commanded, “Jax, give him your lighter!”

“Yes, ma’am!”

Now, Jax couldn’t defy Chloe’s order. He pulled a lighter from his pocket and handed it to Daniel, but not without an expression of disdain.

“Why do you always have to find a woman to solve your problems? Aren’t you a man? If you were a real man, you’d handle things yourself instead of asking a woman for help!”

“Exactly because I’m a man, a capable one! I clearly understand that asking for a woman’s help isn’t shameful at all! A smart man knows to seek assistance from capable women like Chloe.

Some matters, such as getting Jax to follow orders, require a woman! Most women wouldn't be able to manage it, but Chloe can! After all, she’s the team leader at such a young age!”
