In a split second, the noisy courtyard fell silent.
All eyes fell on him.
His gaze swept menacingly over Liu Yingxue's face. Taking a phone from his pocket casually, he pressed the answer button, then coldly replied, "Hello."
Hello...
The same voice also resonated from Xu Qiaoqiao's phone.
She looked at Xu Mushen. Before she could speak, he continued, "The foundation of the Xu family in the business world is honesty and integrity. If you are accepted as my sister, the Xu family will protect you for the rest of your life."
He spoke every word clearly, his voice deep and magnetic, utterances like a solemn vow, unwavering and assertive. His demeanor made Xu Qiaoqiao's heart uncontrollably pound again.
At that moment, the sun was just rising, seeming to envelop the man in a halo of light.
He was dressed simply in a white shirt, black trousers.
But there was something extraordinary about his presence.
That image lingered deeply in Xu Qiaoqiao's memory for many years to come.
