I didn't believe Zhu Chen's words, but I still said in a pretentious way, "Wow, you're really lucky. I'm a little cold. How about we go back to the villa and talk? Where are you staying now? If we're going to cooperate, you can move in with us. Have you eaten anything? We have plenty of food."
Zhu Chen's grip on the back of the chair in the guard booth loosened considerably, and his eyes kept glancing in Ji Lin'an's direction. I took another step forward, getting to within a meter of the guard booth. I looked back at Ji Lin'an's location and softly called out, "Old Ji, come out."
