Su Shen sneered, "Lord Xie, what are you trying to say? That I'm biased towards Chen Yongnian because of this matter, and deliberately didn't tell you the clues?"
"Don't you have any?" Xie Xing's eyes were cold, and his tone was no longer as polite as before.
"Xie Xing, do you know where you fall short compared to Chen Yongnian?" Su Shen's tone turned cold, but his attitude was even more resolute than before.
