Huo Tingxiao looked at Pei Zhao, his tone chilly.
"Otherwise?"
Pei Zhao's lips curled up, his gaze burning.
"Otherwise, if we're not careful, she might no longer be Mrs. Huo."
Mu Lan hated the tone of Pei Zhao's speech, and the way he looked at her also made her feel uncomfortable all over.
She furrowed her brows and replied coldly,
"Whether I am Mrs. Huo or not is really none of your concern, Mr. Pei, because no matter what, I will never become Mrs. Pei. It's not your place to worry about it."
Huo Tingxiao slightly curved his lips, very satisfied with Mu Lan's response.
"I heard that the land you just bid on failed its environmental assessment."
The smile instantly faded from Pei Zhao's face, realizing that this couple was teaming up to throw shade at him.
"Those are baseless rumors. This is a Sea City bidding project. How could there possibly be such an oversight?"
"Whether it's a baseless rumor or not, we'll find out soon."
