He Lan looked at how confident Chen Xuan sounded, and her eyes held a trace of anticipation.
She hurriedly asked, "Chen Xuan, does your family own a mine?"
Chen Xuan was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head with a smile and said, "No."
He Lan quickly followed up, "Do your parents run a multinational corporation?"
"Not that either." Chen Xuan shook his head with a smile.
He Lan showed a bit of impatience, "Then what exactly do your parents do?"
"They used to be researchers," Chen Xuan responded softly.
Upon hearing this, He Lan instantly deflated, and the trace of expectation in her eyes disappeared completely.
She said irritably, "I thought your parents had some amazing status, turns out they're just researchers."
Yang Leshan looked displeased, "Mom, how can you say that, shouldn't researchers be the most respected?"
He Lan rolled her eyes, "It's a different matter, don't mix them up."
