Xiao Yihe was silent for two seconds before he dropped the act, "Lanlan, the bidding meeting is about to start, and I won't hide it from you. Our Shengshi Group is planning to bid for several plots of land, so I wanted to ask your company for the bidding plot numbers."
His straightforward approach caught An Lan off guard.
An Lan analyzed Xiao Yihe's motives in her mind and then responded sarcastically over the phone.
"Xiao Yihe, are you here to spy on the enemy? Are you afraid that Shengshi Group will run into us, Huo An Group, and not be able to outbid us, so you had to make this call? I didn't expect that, for a bit of information, you would throw away your own dignity."
She was just shy of slapping Xiao Yihe's face directly. Xiao Yihe, a man who always valued appearances, was at a loss for words after An Lan's comment. Just as An Lan grew impatient and was about to hang up, Xiao Yihe's voice finally came through the phone again.
