Yang Yi with his back towards him softly commanded, "Leave."
The lawyer got up and exited, leaving only the two of them in the office. Xie Li dropped his pretense of being genteel, and Yang Yi abstained from playing the humble junior.
The two stared at each other, engaged in a silent standoff.
"Aren't you afraid that the Zhao Family might find out about your duplicity?" Yang Yi asked.
"If you are not afraid of her finding out, then why should I fear the Zhao Family?" Xie Li answered.
He didn't want to continue this conversation. Xie Li said, "Mr. Yang, you guys are born fortuitous. You always feel that if people of our ilk marry well, it's considered marrying up. But ask yourself, did the Mistress consider marrying you as marrying up?"
The insinuation was that he wasn't marrying up either, at the very least, Zhao Jingyan posed no threat to him.
