Moon Pavilion.
In the private room on the second floor.
Liu Zhixiang saw Cheng Ran leaving with a face full of anger and swept his sleeves as he left, prompting Liu himself to rise to his feet.
"Mr. Cheng, since you've made up your mind, I won't say any more! But I must warn you," he said, "this young man by your side is Jiang Li's brother, and Jiang Li, a mere disabled constable, has caught the attention of Cao Bin."
"Do you think he could have any future or prospects?"
"His future is already sealed. If you continue to associate with him, your Cheng family will inevitably become involved."
"Your aunt may be married into the Xie family, but she's just a concubine, the fourth wife in the branch house, and can't protect you completely."
Hearing these words, Cheng Ran paused slightly as he crossed the threshold, then continued to step out of the private room.
A short time later.
