Li Wang and Li Lei were both stunned, almost thinking they had misheard.
For Junior Brother Chen to contradict Senior Sister Nie to her face... could it be...?

But things were different now!
More than ten drops of Centennial Earth Core Milk every month! And a drop of three-hundred-year-old Earth Core Milk dangling before him!
