As Wen Xin spoke, she handed the blueprint back to Ou Shenzhi, her dark eyes earnestly meeting Elder Ou's gaze.
"Old man, I thought of you as a friend, but I didn't expect you to betray me. Does this mean our deep connection is over?" Wen Xin's tone was calm, but Elder Ou could hear the seriousness in her voice.
He hurriedly opened his mouth to explain, "Well... Wen Xin..."
"Elder Ou, there's no need for many explanations. You know what kind of place Independent State is. I initially made the drawing just to make a little money, not to get involved in those disputes. I just want to live a peaceful life."
"Also, I want to kindly remind Mr. Ou not to let the people of Independent State use you as a pawn. Be careful not to drag down the entire Ou family because of it."
Wen Xin's cold eyes slightly narrowed, a chill flashing through them.
