Seeing Xu Ke's perpetually placid expression, no one believed he was truly unaffected. They were certain he was seething with humiliation, merely putting on a brave face.
How pathetic!
Behind Xu Ke, the disgust on Zhan Yunning's face had reached its peak.
If you're going to be a kept man, you should at least act the part. Couldn't he just stand quietly in the back? Why did he have to step forward and speak, let alone fabricate a position? As the chairwoman's assistant, she had never even heard of a role like 'investigator'. Seriously, could he have some common sense? Being engaged to someone like Xu Ke was truly a stroke of terrible luck that must have been accumulated over eight lifetimes.

The crowd was baffled. Xu Ke had been humiliated so thoroughly, yet Wong Qifu had no reaction?
