"I once truly trusted in your abilities, but this time, you have greatly disappointed me!" Yuan Hao said with a pained expression, as if his past expectations of Ling Xi were inexplicably high.
Leng Jianjun snorted coldly.
Hypocrite!
But he did not interject. He had come here today to embolden his beloved granddaughter, but still, he believed that this matter was something his family's treasure could easily resolve.
Truth be told, he found it quite contemptible that he could live so hypocritically.
...
"Then I really have disappointed the officer." Ling Xi said calmly, reclining casually in her chair. Her young face showed no sign of nervousness, confusion, or even urgency, yet her words seemed to hint at a deeper meaning.
Disappointed, as to what specifically, remains to be seen.
At this moment, Ling Xi remained indifferent, but the aura she exuded made anyone stepping into this room feel the same.
This was Ling Xi's home turf!
