Hearing that Lu Fan wouldn't tell her anything, Lu Xi assumed that Lu Fan was afraid of Dongfang Shuo's family.

“That’s right. Dongfang Shuo’s family is much richer than your brother’s. Your brother’s assets are nothing to them.”

Hearing his sister's words, Lu Fan lowered his head in shame and said to her.

"Oh, what does his family do?"

Lu Xi, who initially didn't believe it, understood perfectly well when she saw her brother's expression.

Lu Fan never submitted to anyone, but this time he actually took the initiative to admit that Dongfang Shuo's family was stronger than his, out of curiosity about what the other party was.

"The other party is the Dongfang family, one of the four major families. I only heard of this family after I reached my current level of wealth. This family made its fortune by exporting oil to foreign countries. Now they also monopolize new energy technology. If we compare financial resources and strength in all aspects, we are no match for them."

Lu Fan didn't want to admit that he was incapable, after all, a man will never admit that he is incapable.

He could only helplessly shrug and say to Lu Xi.

"Isn't this perfect opportunity for us to get to know him? Why won't you let me have more contact with his family?"

Judging from Lu Fan's words, Dongfang Shuo's family was very well-off, so he decided to get to know him.

Once you get along well with them, you can help each other in the same field.

I don't quite understand why Lu Fan wouldn't let me do that.

"That's because the Dongfang family wouldn't like him being with you. As far as I know, they prefer people from similar social standing. So you understand what I mean?"

Seeing that his younger sister insisted on knowing, Lu Fan sighed and answered her question.
