A dark glimmer flashed in Xiao Linye's eyes.
He glanced at Elder Xiao and said coldly, "Who told you I was with her?"
Elder Xiao and Butler Zhong were silent. Both of them recalled Xiao Shuo's pitiful plea before he left, his miserable demeanor making it hard not to feel for him.
Then they looked at Xiao Linye's stern expression.
It was clear that if Xiao Linye discovered Xiao Shuo was the informant, Xiao Shuo would be in for a hard time.
Xiao Linye's gaze swept back and forth between the two men. Seeing neither spoke, he let out a cold snort and stood up. "Don't call me for such trivial matters in the future."
He slept with the Ye Family's adopted daughter? The rumor was so absurd he felt like ripping out the tongue of whoever started it.
With that, he turned and walked away.
Just then, Elder Xiao's voice came from behind, "Whether it's true or not, you should avoid any entanglement with the Ye Family. From now on, cease all cooperation with them."
