Chapter 403

"There's definitely something else going on here."

With that thought, Huang Shangzong's thick brows furrowed as he lay on his side, suddenly feeling as though he had fallen into some kind of conspiracy.

The refined man on the phone, upon hearing Huang Shangzong's words, chuckled.

Then he said, "Old Huang, look at you, getting impatient again."

"After all these years, when will you ever calm down?"
