Chapter 636 - 635: All Friends
As the words were spoken, the entire campsite seemed to quiet down momentarily, as almost everyone’s gaze shifted in this direction.
But it was just a fleeting glance, and then these people turned their heads away, each returning to their own business.
Li Ge, the Young Master of Mobei Commerce, was also a famous prodigy. Moreover, Mobei Commerce and the Trading House where Annie belonged both had their headquarters in the same city.
It was said that the rivalry between the two Trading Houses was fierce, but these two grew up together from childhood. Some even called them childhood sweethearts.
Lately, there were signs of reconciliation between the two Trading Houses, and they seemed to be getting quite close, even rumors of an arranged marriage between the two houses started to spread.
Everyone had long speculated that it had something to do with Li Ge and Annie, but no one expected Li Ge to make such a sudden attack, teasing Annie in front of so many people.
The affairs of the young were not of concern to the adults, and the members of the Trading Houses continued to be busy with their own matters.
But Annie’s expression was one of annoyance. However, she did not want to cause trouble for Lin Hao, so she let go of his hand, took two steps forward, and said disgruntledly, "Li Ge! Please watch your words! Who is your woman? And this is my friend. If we are not welcome here, we will leave. But please, refrain from using foul language!"
Annie obviously gave no face to Li Ge and there were quite a few people from other Trading Houses watching from the side.
Li Ge’s face grew even darker.
This was a public humiliation in front of so many people!
If this had been in the past, it wouldn’t have happened like this. He, Li Ge, was a man who understood the bigger picture and knew when to advance or retreat, and would not have taken offense.
