"Young Master Yan, let's not bring up the past."
Zong Mao's attitude is significantly more arrogant than before.
Naturally, Young Master Yan understands, this Zong Mao likely despises him due to repeated interference in recent times.
Yet, he was compelled to, at that time; Whether standing as Bai Shao's or as Zong Zhe's friend, he couldn't have turned Xiao Lizi over to someone who appeared out of the blue, even if that someone were Xiao Lizi's biological grandparents.
At that moment, Young Master Yan, just like Zhu Qianying worried about the future of Bai Shao and Xiao Lizi.
Perhaps, he need not worry about Xiao Lizi. After all, he is the only flesh and blood of Zong Zhe. Even with Zong Mao and his wife's ruthlessness, they would not act against their only granddaughter.
As for Bai Shao, her future without title or role in the Zong Family, it would be grueling indeed.
