Qin Xiang frowned, looking at Chen Kai with confusion.
"I don't quite understand. If the issue is about the terms of collaboration, why didn't you wait until you had completed your task before agreeing to cooperate?"
Chen Kai chuckled helplessly.
"If you knew what his condition was, I don't think you would be asking this."
Qin Xiang was even more puzzled.
"So, what exactly did he tell you?"
Chen Kai didn't answer the question. Instead, he cast his eyes into the distance and spoke softly.
"Do you think the Qin Family and the Li Family have a chance to mend their rift?"
He brought his gaze back and stared at Qin Xiang with a serious look.
"What I mean to say is, old grievances are easier to resolve than to foster. You've been at odds for several years now; always looking at each other with disdain won't get you anywhere."
"Because of your relationship with me, the Qin Family and the Li Family probably can't keep their respective affairs separate anymore."
