Ling Tianyu sat throughout the meeting without uttering a word, just smoking and with no sign of any change in his eyes, making it impossible to guess his thoughts.
Zhao Xiangde and his two companions noticed this and forcefully suppressed the anger in their hearts, turning their gaze towards Ling Tianyu.
"Tianyu, you absolutely must not go," Nan Wuji said gravely, looking directly at Ling Tianyu, and Dongfang Shuo felt the same.
Ling Tianyu exhaled a puff of smoke, shook his head with a smile, and said, "I'll think about it."
Upon hearing his response, the three men wanted to say more but could only choke back their words and take their leave, with Ling Tianyu personally escorting them out.
Su Ruoxi had already come down from upstairs, unaware of the events that had transpired. After pouring water, she went back upstairs.
"Has everyone left?" Su Ruoxi asked from the sofa.
