Chapter 645: Untitled

From the beginning, he'd suspected that this woman was putting on a show in front of him, certainly with an ulterior motive or even a plot. However, despite racking his brain, he could not figure out what she wanted.

Now, upon hearing her mention Chen Xiaoting, he had an epiphany. He realized that, here, him being a Li didn't mean he had nothing.

There was a young girl, after all!

As expected, she must've learned about Chen Xiaoting and then deliberately "invested" in him. If her treatment of him was genuinely sincere and helpful, he would certainly be grateful.

She even feigned kindness offering him a job, potentially seeking direct control over him.

They were overthinking!
