When Yang Sheng conveyed Old Master's request to Ji Rui, Ji Rui first looked at Yang Sheng, then at Uncle Jing, and finally spoke to Uncle Jing.
"Uncle Jing, sorry, you'll need to ask Le Tong about this. I can't make the decision."
Although Ji Rui hadn't said much earlier, it didn't mean he wasn't thinking about how this situation could develop.
Regardless of which way things developed, what he needed to do was unconditionally stand by Le Tong's side, support her, and protect her!
"Mr. Ji…" Uncle Jing's tone carried a hint of pleading.
"Uncle Jing, you don't know Le Tong. Yang Sheng should understand her. He has the ability, so let him talk to Le Tong. I'm sorry, I don't have that ability."
Ji Rui didn't mind diminishing himself to this extent, just so Le Tong wouldn't have to face difficulty.
And Yang Sheng, obviously, had no intention of helping Old Master either.
