"I thought that was her true nature!" Li Ji'an couldn't help but chuckle wryly to himself.
In this world, what merchants are there who are truly scholars? They are just Confucian on the outside and manipulative inside, the more they showcase benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and trust on the surface, the more they are strict with others in private, putting interests above all.
