Finally got it!
Carson Flores let out a long sigh of relief in his heart, but outwardly, he displayed a grateful expression as if he had been shown great kindness: "Thank you, Family Head, I don't know how to express my gratitude, but I will definitely work hard for you in the future and help ease your burdens!"
Cyprian Valentine laughed heartily: "Good, you are truly a talent, and our Valentine Family will not treat you poorly."
Cyprian Valentine deliberately pointed out that he had spent a favor to get this Hidden God White Jade Stem, and he specifically mentioned that it was obtained before the end of the competition. This meant that regardless of whether Carson Flores won or lost, he did this for him, subtly indicating the value he placed on Carson Flores.
Showing favor!
Carson Flores understood and pretended to be moved, playing along with Cyprian Valentine in a theatrical display.
