Huo Wenting watched Lu Chengwen's serious expression as she angrily told Huo Wenxi what she thought, her brows tightly furrowed.

Huo Wenxi burst out laughing. "Lu Chengwen, quit playing dumb! You think I don't know you? Don't think your reputation isn't big enough.

You and your sister should both learn from him. What great prospects can you possibly have if you only stare at this little bit of profit in front of you?"
