"What if someone tampered with it, wouldn't that leave me as a fish on the chopping board, at the mercy of others?" she said with a teasing edge in her voice.
Lu Minghao raised an eyebrow, feigning heartbreak, "So this is what you think of me in your heart."
With that, he stepped closer to Wen Tang.
She remained standing her ground, looking up at him with an imposing air fostered by years of competence and authority, attempting to deter him.
However, Ming Hao, with his rogue nature, was unphased, lowering his voice and stating, "No matter what, your looks are top-notch, how could I bear to get you drunk and hand you to someone else?"
He overstepped even further, a mischievous smile flashing in his eyes, almost lifting Wen Tang's chin.
This scene was caught in its entirety by Gu Muchen as he entered the banquet hall.
Narrowing his eyes decisively, he shoved Ming Hao aside, stood next to Wen Tang, and confronted him, "What are you, to dare take advantage of Wen Tang?"
