Chao Hongjie and Chao Bao are on completely different levels.
Chao Bao's arrogance is written all over his face, his emotions are always evident, and you can tell what kind of person he is at a glance.
Chao Hongjie is completely the opposite, cunning and deceitful, sweet-talking but with hidden daggers, a master of performance...
If Zhang Yuan were a teenager, he would have been completely manipulated by him.
Surely, he'd fall into the trap obediently.
But having lived two lives, how could he not see Chao Hongjie's treacherous motives hidden beneath his gentle mask!
It's just that Zhang Yuan is still very weak now, so he played along with the uncle and nephew's act.
But Zhang Yuan did not come away empty-handed.
First, he understood Chao Bao's motive to dominate the River Bay District.
As for the talk about Mother Chao having a serious illness and needing the White Dragon Loach as a medicinal guide to save her life.
Zhang Yuan didn't believe a single word!
