"Of course, how could I dare to deceive you," Huang Xiang said, his voice quivering with excitement.
What that meant was that Mr. Chen was deceiving you.
As a businessman, he naturally understood that the greater the risk, the greater the reward. Just a slim chance to climb into Ye Ziqi's good graces was worth tearing his face off with Chen Shimei, so what?
After pausing for a moment, he continued, "Miss Ye, if you want to know more about Li Er Niu, maybe you could come with me... to the small woods up ahead?"
Ye Ziqi said, "No need, just say it here." Hmm, Li isn't a scrap collector, what would he be doing in the small woods? Just say it here.
"Miss Ye, actually, Li Er Niu is..." Huang Xiang stammered,
Then, with a sudden burst of inspiration, he said, "Actually, Li Er Niu is a prince from the Li Tang Dynasty. Yes, a prince from the Li Tang Dynasty."
