Chapter 1719: The Initial Agreement_1

No matter how much Ling Xiu protested, Yang Chen had never thought of helping the Ling Family. Though he couldn't be considered cruel, he was nowhere close to being compassionate. It was only natural for the Ling Family, one of the Four Major Clans, to decline, and he didn't think it was necessary for him to intervene. After all, even if the family fell, Ling Xiu wouldn't be left with nowhere to turn.

Furthermore, Yang Chen genuinely didn't have the power to assist Ling Xiu, so he had decisively refused her request.

But he didn't expect Ling Xiu to start crying.

Her crying left him at a loss of what to do.

Unsure how to comfort her, Yang Chen could only say, "Miss Ling, could you please stop crying?"

A woman's tears are powerful weapons, and even though his resolve was strong, he couldn't ignore them. So, he continued talking to Ling Xiu in an attempt to console her and make her stop.
