Chapter 178: "Nothing else, just making friends."

"So, the reason the Grey Family has survived all these years without any background is that they didn't let anyone offend them."

"They made sure not to be just an ordinary passerby."

"People always think that as long as you don't offend anyone, you can live in peace."

"But few people realize that if you can prevent everyone from offending you, you can be even more peaceful."

"In simpler terms."

"Take the passerby example we mentioned earlier."

"If you randomly hit an unknown passerby on the street, and that passerby, in return, gives you cigarettes, invites you to his home for tea, and cheerfully says let's be friends and wishes you well, what would you do?"

"What would you do?"

Jonas Grey frowned and thought for a moment before saying, "I would think this person is cunning and insidious, like a smiling tiger who likes to stab people in the back. It's better to get rid of them."

"Exactly."
