Lu Huairu obviously didn't expect Old Mr. Zhong's attitude to be so firm. However, in this situation, he couldn't keep things tense with Old Mr. Zhong, so he had to leave first, planning to return for negotiation once he thought of a better solution.
After Lu Huairu left, a white-haired man walked into the room and said to Old Mr. Zhong, "That guy with the surname Liang is still waiting."
Old Mr. Zhong snorted, "What's the point of dealing with such people? They probably got some half-baked information and wanted to come here to dig for more. Haven't we entertained enough of these people over the years? Just let him return the way he came."
The white-haired man hesitated, "But there's Yan Gu's side."
"She has her own life. It's been so many years; why disturb her peaceful life again?" Old Mr. Zhong sighed, "If you really can't let go, after I'm gone, you can contact them."
