What kind of fairness is this?!
"Even if Sheng Xueqin doesn't work for your company anymore, wouldn't you still have to meet her if the Sheng Family and the Huo Family have any interactions in the future?
Huo Tingxiao, can't you be less childish?!"
Childish?
Huo Tingxiao narrowed his eyes; this was the first time anyone had called him childish.
"So, you're unwilling to cut ties with Lin Yize?"
Mu Lan frowned; the focus of this matter wasn't really on Lin Yize. She could agree today, but what if a Zhang Yize came along next time, and a Li Yize the time after? Or was she expected to avoid all men around her?
"I thought adults could think like adults. Huo Tingxiao, I think you're being a bit irrational right now. Our conversation isn't appropriate to continue."
"Adult thinking..."
Seeing the corners of his mouth curl up, Mu Lan's face suddenly flushed red.
"I'm talking about being objectively rational; don't get the wrong idea!"
Rational? Huo Tingxiao squinted his eyes.
