"What do you think?" Instead of answering, Fu Xing asked back coldly.
Horace's scalp tingled with dread, and he started to sweat profusely, "Your relationship with the old lady is already very tense. If you fight with the old lady over power, I'm afraid..."
"I'm afraid I'll end up with a reputation for being cruel, disloyal, and unfilial?" Fu Xing scoffed with a snort.
"Not necessarily that."
