"Although I don't like you, we're still one in the eyes of outsiders now. Therefore, we have to be close no matter what."
Nangong Jue sneered. "You pay me every month?"
"How can I give you a salary?"
"Then why should I be close to you?"
"You—"
"If there's nothing else, let's go."
"Nangong Jue." Nangong Lin stopped him again. "Even if we're not close, as a normal situation, I'm unfamiliar with this place. As the host here, you should at least do your part as a host."
