Kristy and Jiang Hong exchanged glances, both with expressions that showed a mix of shock and confusion. Slowly they moved toward the far end of the room, both thinking what just happened. The room was filled with murmurs and curious glances from the others, who began moving toward the pair, eager to get some answers.
A young woman finally broke the silence.
"Jiang Hong, who was that young man?"
"Ha? He is..." Jiang Hong blinked, caught off guard.
He muttered, only just realising he hadn't even asked about Hirvan's relationship with the Ren brothers. Were they relatives?!
Beside him, Kristy appeared more composed.
She took a deep breath and grabbed Jiang Hong's arm.
"Sorry, we have something to take care of."
Kristy said crisply, shooting the others a polite but firm look before dragging Jiang Hong out of the room.
"Hey, what are you doing?!" He whispered, trying to shake free, but Kristy's grip was surprisingly strong.
