A short while later.
Chen Mo and Ning Tian finalized an order worth a full 1.5 billion gold soul coins.
The other party also threw in some rare metals free of charge, all of them naturally occurring metals unavailable in the Sun Moon Empire.
"Once these Soul Tools are finished, we'll notify your sect to collect them. If there's nothing else, Miss Ning, I'll take my leave." Chen Mo rose with a smile and shook Ning Tian's hand.
Then he left with Meng Hongchen.
Feeling the lingering warmth in her hand, Ning Tian nodded. "Goodbye."
Yet her gaze followed Chen Mo until his figure vanished completely.
Only then did she reluctantly look away.
Standing beside her, Wu Feng saw how reluctant Ning Tian was to part with him.
Jealousy welled up in her heart.
Ning Tian had never watched her leave like that.
The difference in treatment was far too great.
She gave Ning Tian a light, disgruntled push. "All right, Ning Tian, he's already gone. Why are you still pining after him? Besides, what's so good about that Chen Mo? If you ask me, he's not worthy of you at all."
"Wu Feng, why do I get the feeling you're really hostile toward Chen Mo?"
Ning Tian gave Wu Feng a puzzled look.
She had noticed the change in Wu Feng's mood the moment Chen Mo entered the reception room.

Yet Wu Feng and Chen Mo should never have had any dealings before.
Seeing that Ning Tian had noticed her feelings toward Chen Mo.
Wu Feng's mind instantly raced.
After all, she couldn't very well say
