"Alright, I understand. Thank you for your troubles; you've worked hard during this period."
Saying this, Lu Jincheng felt somewhat embarrassed and quite guilty towards him.
After all, if it weren't for his own matters, he wouldn't have burdened him with such exhausting tasks.
But as soon as the good brother heard him, his tone immediately changed, becoming extremely serious.
"Hey, what's our relationship? Why are you suddenly being so polite? Are we still brothers or not? Remember, if we're brothers, just gratefully accept my help without a word. I don't want to hear any of that courteous crap. Save it for dealing with your adversaries."
Lu Jincheng's lips curled into a wry smile, but he ultimately refrained from saying anything overly polite.
"Okay, thanks. When my company makes its comeback, I'll definitely treat you to tea."
"It's a deal, old Lu. I'll be waiting for that day!"
The two bantered for a few sentences before quickly ending the call.
