The secretary hesitated slightly, "But if the Xi family finds out that we're targeting Xi Zuzi, and they refuse to sell us the Ancient Jade..."
Doing business on one hand while cutting down the Xi family's granddaughter — wouldn't that be too unscrupulous?
Nangong Mo took a puff of his cigar, exhaling a thick ring of smoke, "Are you stupid? If they refuse to sell it, can't we just snatch it?"
The secretary shivered, "Yes!"
He was wrong, "scruple" was never in the Fourth Young Master Nangong's dictionary — smiling while doing business, cutting down your granddaughter, and snatching your treasure...
That's what his Fourth Young Master Nangong did as a regular modus operandi!

One day to go until the high-stakes exam.
