Chapter 401

The old man felt utterly displeased at heart.

He had originally intended that no matter whether he won or lost the bet, it would be a win-win situation for him.

But the outcome was not as expected!

Xu Ningxi's mind was too shrewd, and she didn't fall for his tricks.

He let out a cold laugh.

"Miss Xu, you are nothing but a smooth talker. I have seen all kinds of people over the years, plenty of various types, including someone like you. No matter how obedient, reasonable, or devoted you pretend to be for Fu Hanzheng, I will not be fooled by you."

"Your tricks may work with Fu Hanzheng, but not with me. Put away your self-righteous speech, as I really don't care for it."

Xu Ningxi directly used the old man's words to counterargue, "Just now, you said my tricks work with Fu Hanzheng, but why do they work? It must be because we share common values and are a perfect match."
