Yang Xiao's refusal was straightforward, leaving Shangguan Hao completely stunned.
The olive branch he had extended to Yang Xiao was by no means ungenerous. To become an honored guest of the Shangguan Family was a position countless people in Tiandong City coveted, yet Yang Xiao had rejected it without even a moment's thought.
Such an unequivocal refusal utterly overturned Shangguan Hao's understanding.
In Yang Xiao's heart, did the title of young master of the Shangguan Family carry no weight, or was the status of becoming an honored guest equally worthless?
Or was it possible that Yang Xiao was simply oblivious to the elite of Tiandong City, unaware of the Shangguan Family, therefore ignorant of the significance behind those four words?
That seemed unlikely, though; from Yang Xiao's earlier remarks, it was clear he was well aware of the Shangguan Family.
