Shi Yang raised his glass and clinked it with Li Shuren's: "I really hit a rough patch. I've been busy smoothing things over recently. To be honest, I've knocked on every possible door to find connections and spent quite a bit of money. The key issue is, the other side isn't interested in this little money of mine at all."
Li Shuren was taken aback and asked, "Is someone deliberately giving you a hard time?"
Shi Yang downed his drink in one go and nodded: "You have a sharp eye; you got it right away. It took me a few setbacks to realize what was going on."
Li Shuren was curious: "What's really happening?"
Qu Chaozong indignantly slammed the table: "Brother Li, stop talking about it. Just thinking about it makes my blood boil, I feel like my lungs are about to burst."
