Su Shen did not offer any opportunity for discussion. With a steady voice, he declared, "I've already purchased and sent out the items. There's no need for you to trouble yourself. What brings you here? Speak plainly."
Su Shen was well aware that neither Hu Bing nor Huo Jing were in charge of the training base here. There was no reason for them to appear unless they needed something from him.
Accustomed to Su Shen's cold and aloof demeanor, Hu Bing was not embarrassed by the rejection. He stated frankly, "It's all because of my cousin, Hu Jie. She's set her heart on renewing the marriage contract with you. The Hu family also believes they can support you, so they sent me as a mediator. I had no choice but to come and play the part. Su Shen, please don't take it personally."
