Situ Zhangyou was getting anxious and spoke in hushed tones, "Ms. Shen, do me a favor, please? Our family is interested in doing business with you in good faith. Grandpa admires you but there have been roadblocks along the way. Let's head in for a chat and perhaps then you can decide. What do you think?"

More questions and envy overwhelmed Su Ruowan as Situ Zhangyou led Shen Xi further away.
