"Is it Qin?"
"No worries, I'll call him right now. Just listen in."
Zhao Liwei said gently, then took out his phone and dialed, even putting it on speaker.
"Oh, President Zhao, what can I do for you?"
Qin, who had just been scolded, said humbly, as if he were a mouse having just seen a cat, not daring to breathe a single breath, and even weighing every word carefully before speaking.
"It's not a big deal, it's just about the daughter-in-law. I heard the Cao Family has accepted quite a bit of your betrothal gifts. They're worried you won't call off the engagement, so I'm calling to ask what you really mean."
Zhao Liwei said expressionlessly, exuding a very oppressive aura, like a beast ready to pounce. Any sounds from the phone that displeased him would surely cause him to show his claws.
"Who says I don't want to call it off?"
"Your eldest son has taken a liking to a girl, so we must make way unconditionally, anytime, without considering my feelings."
