He hadn't taken more than a few steps before he was stopped by his sister-in-law.
"Hanzheng, are you trying to slip away? How come your reputation is worth so little so early in the morning?"
Fu Hanzheng had no choice but to stop in his tracks and explain, "Sister-in-law, I just saw an acquaintance. I want to go over and speak with her for a moment."
Gu Baixue couldn't help but laugh after hearing this.
"What kind of acquaintance makes you, the accomplished third young master, chase after her? With your current power and status, shouldn't people be fawning over you? Stop joking around with your sister-in-law. I brought you here today for an important matter; I need your help."
Fu Hanzheng's brows furrowed slightly.
He remembered that his sister-in-law Gu Baixue rarely asked for favors.
And she had come for a serious matter this time.
He gave up the idea of chasing after Xu Ningxi and turned back to explain things properly to her.
