"Ah.. I see.." Long Kang nodded slightly and turned his attention to Luo Yating. "Miss Luo's clan has plenty of businesses."
Luo Yating was trying to suppress her annoyance towards him. She nodded stiffly. "We have some."
Long Kang's eyes formed into crescents. "Yes! My father, the City Lord, has always admired the Luo clan's expertise towards business. Even I could even see how integral it is to the economy in the capital."
Luo Yating wouldn't have minded comments like these. After all, Long Kang was not the first person to say it.
But what made her annoyed was the intention behind his words.
She knew that the City Lord wanted Long Kang to marry her so that they could accumulate wealth through the Luo clan.
When a young woman marries, the family would give dowry to the groom's family.
From the Luo clan, handing a few businesses plus some jewelry and other treasures were the likely items for the dowry.
