Mu Can's expression was calm, but a fire of rage burned in his heart.
His fiancée had come to break off their engagement, and she'd made such a public spectacle of it that he and his deceased parents had lost all face.
If she had just come to discuss it with him discreetly, rather than delivering the news with such arrogance and fanfare, Mu Can would have naturally chosen to respect her wishes.
