“My…my throat hurts,” Mo Fan pointed at his throat indicating he was having trouble talking.

Zu Huanyao rolled his eyes at Mo Fan and said, “You think I don’t know you are close with Su Lu’s faction? Su Lu is an impressive person, yet there’s something strange about his character. Even we from the older generation don’t really understand him, but there’s one thing we know for sure, and that is that he won’t hesitate to fall out with anyone who opposes him! I don’t care who you are hanging out with, but you should be careful with everything you do. Do you understand?”

“Mm, mm,” Mo Fan nodded.

Zu Huanyao’s eyes suddenly had a strange look. He began to observe Mo Fan closely.

The Dark Vein in Mo Fan’s body became restless. It was alerting Mo Fan about some kind of danger.

Did the Old Fox notice something?

Mo Fan’s heart skipped a beat. Zu Huanyao was the pillar of the Zu Clan, and had the nickname of the Old Fox. He was a capable man. Even though Mo Fan was smart enough to pretend he had a cold and a sore throat, Zu Huanyao still noticed something was not right.

What went wrong? Could it be that Zu Xiangtian was never so obedient in front of Zu Huanyao?

“You have to scold me no matter where I go. I’m already getting tired of it. Can’t you keep it to yourself for once? I’m seriously unwell,” Mo Fan said impatiently.

“So what if I’m scolding you? I’m telling you, anyone who isn’t stupid can easily tell what you are after! There’s another thing I want to ask you about. Why are you making such a huge fuss about the duel?” Zu Huanyao regained his initial expression.

Mo Fan was relieved. It seemed like Zu Xiangtian had always acted impatiently in front of Zu Huanyao.

“I’ve waited long enough. I’m going to trample him to death. Besides, we can’t just forget what he did on the national team!” Mo Fan spat back.

“You’re still the same, you can never keep your cool. It’s in your best interest not to mess with that Mo Fan. He has done a lot for the country. Do you think it’s the same as your petty acts of virtue, which you purposely hired people to make a big fuss about?” Zu Huanyao sniffed.

“He’s just lucky. The outcomes of those incidents would be the same even if he wasn’t involved!” Mo Fan exclaimed, parroting the words of the people who were doubtful of his capabilities.

“Why have I never seen you being lucky, then? I’m telling you, don’t you earn our Zu Clan to shame!” Zu Huanyao rebuked him.

Mo Fan could not agree more in his heart. It turned out that the old man still had some sense in him!

“I have some other business to attend to. I can’t afford to waste my time talking to you here,” Mo Fan huffed.

“Don’t you have a sore throat?” Zu Huanyao snapped at him.

“Ugh…” Mo Fan had a feeling he should leave as soon as possible!

“(Sigh), I know you still hold a grudge against me. It’s true that you might have had a chance to meet the great Angel Michael if you had participated in the mission on Tianshan Mountain, but do you have any idea who that Qin Yu’er is?” Zu Huanyao told him.

“Is she related to us?” Mo Fan raised his brows.

“Do you remember your second eldest brother, Zu Xingyi?” Zu Huanyao asked grimly.

“Mm,” Mo Fan nodded, trying not to speak too much.
