Xu Mu chose to reject the olive branch thrown by Shang Lian.
"I'm sorry! I'm afraid I can't accept your offer!"
Xu Mu laughed and shook his head.
The daughter that Shang Lian mentioned certainly wouldn't be Shang YaoYao. Although Xu Mu has shown impressive talent, he has not yet reached the point where he is worthy to marry Shang YaoYao.
In simple terms, it is acceptable for a woman to lack talent, but absolutely unacceptable for a man. If a woman is highly talented, then a man must be even more so.
Considering Shang YaoYao's talent, marrying her would require more than just talent, it would also require a good background.
In other words, they must be a good match in terms of social status.
But Xu Mu was obviously not there yet, one could even say he fell drastically short.
"Won't you reconsider? I've offered these indulgent terms for YaoYao's sake!"
Shang Lian's brow furrowed, displaying a hint of displeasure.
