Zhuang Ling nodded, avoiding Rong Qi’s gaze.

Rong Qi frowned, sensing something was amiss. She thought, ‘Had Shen also been targeted in a scheme similar to mine?’

Zhuang Ling explained the day’s events at Xihuang Bar and waited for Rong Qi’s reaction.

However, Rong Qi’s response was unexpectedly calm. She said, “I see. I’ll go check on him.”

Rong Qi headed upstairs, leaving Zhuang Ling puzzled. He said, “Isn’t she supposed to be angry? Master Shen looked so grim when he returned.”

Xu Yi speculated, “Ever heard of the calm before the storm? They might be heading for another cold war.”

“Ah! Not again!” Zhuang Ling exclaimed.

“No, no,” Shangguan Ze interjected, “You’re underestimating Sukie. Based on my years of friendship with her, she’s not angry.”

“Friendship?” Zhuang Ling and Xu Yi exclaimed in unison.

“You know, best of friends. What’s wrong with that?” Shangguan Ze stated as he admired the grandeur of the mansion.

“Phew, you should have said that earlier. No one can save you if my master heard that.” Zhuang Ling implored.

Both Zhuang Ling and Xu Yi simultaneously patted their chests and exhaled deeply, relieved. Shangguan Ze was baffled by their behavior and ignored them. He continued examining the house’s interior, touching the pillars and tables thoughtfully.

“This must have cost a fortune, right?” Shangguan Ze asked.

Zhuang Ling, noticing Shangguan Ze for the first time, asked, “Who are you?”

Shangguan Ze handed out his business card as S.K’s executive, offering a discount on real estate. His actions resembled those of a pushy real estate agent. Zhuang Ling and Xu Yi were dumbfounded, realizing this was the person from the opposing company, S.K.

Shangguan Ze sipped his tea, savoring its fresh aroma. “Mmm, excellent tea! Truly first-rate!” he exclaimed.

First, Shangguan Ze took a small sip, then immediately gulped down the entire cup, promptly refilling it himself without any hesitation. Then, he turned to a bewildered Zhuang Ling and Xu Yi, asking, “Is there more of this tea? Could I perhaps take some home for free?”

With a squint and a smile, Shangguan Ze added, “If you buy a house under my name, I can offer you a 15% discount!”

Zhuang Ling and Xu Yi’s eyes widened in astonishment.

“Such a penny-pincher! Is S.K. really that broke?” Xu Yi wondered aloud.

Poking Zhuang Ling with his elbow, he said, “Did you know that when we went to find Madam, we saw a jeep at the scene? I thought it belonged to those thugs. Turns out, it’s Shangguan Ze’s. That jeep was the epitome of rundown..

It’s my first time seeing a wealthy person driving something like that!”
