His voice was hoarse, "Su Mo was a poor boy, besides painting, his family background was very bad. His father was a gambling addict, his mother had passed away early, and the Shi Family was a major, almost divine family—they naturally wouldn't agree to their relationship."

"Every time Shi Ying and Su Mo had a date, they would first ask me out. Plainly speaking, I was their cover."
Ming Yao suddenly remembered the words Fang Keer had said.
