Knowing it's an unfair request, why would he still press ahead? Is the old man leveraging his age for sympathy, or is he ready to go all out for Bai Yibo? Is he not afraid of offending Mr. Xie?
Bai Ruozhu wanted to stop him from speaking but not out of selfish concerns about the old mansion gaining an advantage. It was because Bai Yibo had been such a huge embarrassment today that they had already greatly offended Mr. Xie and his wife. If the old man made any more unreasonable demands, it would make the Bai Family look presumptuous.
Bai Zepei's face darkened, his moody expression almost dripping with gloom. He had invited his mentor for a visit to express his gratitude, but now it seemed like his family was attempting to manipulate Mr. Xie. Anyone would be upset in this situation, wouldn't they?
