Guo Jiumin glanced discontentedly at Xia Lan and said, "Alright, Young Madam Huo has met you. You don't need to linger here."
At this point, Xia Lan dared not say anything further, she bit her lip and left the study.
Inside the room, only Xia Chuyi and Guo Jiumin remained.
As Xia Lan left, Guo Jiumin continued with his insincere smile and "kind" demeanor, asking Xia Chuyi, "So, Young Madam Huo, how have you considered my proposal?"
"Well…" Xia Chuyi lowered her eyes, feigning hesitation, and said, "I still want to think about it…"
No sooner had Xia Chuyi spoken than Guo Jiumin's expression showed a hint of displeasure.
"Young Madam Huo, you're not being very sincere," remarked Guo Jiumin.
Xia Chuyi shook her head, pretending to be cautious, and said, "It's not that I'm insincere, it's just that I don't quite understand, Mr. Guo, what exactly do you intend to do?"
