Upon hearing this, Elder Gao smiled slightly. "Brother Zheng, you jest. The honor is all mine to have you greet me in person."
"Haha, Brother Gao, you are too kind! Please, come in. Let's talk inside," Elder Zheng replied with a smile.
Elder Gao didn't stand on ceremony, as they both knew what the other was thinking.
The two elders went into the study, while Zheng Kang waited outside. In their presence, Zheng Kang did not have the right to enter.
"Brother Gao, please, have a seat," Elder Zheng said with a smile, personally pouring a cup of tea for his guest.
Elder Gao accepted it without formality, taking a sip before speaking. "Brother Zheng, I believe you are well aware of what has been happening outside. Now, with the Shen Family blocking my way, I have no choice but to seek an alliance with you." He got straight to the point.
