His eyes were wide open, his face filled with terror. He didn't understand why he was saying these things. Those weren't the words he wanted to say at all, but they just spilled out on their own.
Xu Wuyi's expression remained unchanged as he continued his questioning. "How did he help you?"
Zheng Hai wanted to shut his mouth, wanted to clench his jaw, but he simply couldn't.
"When I first started in the Star Realm trade, I didn't know anything and lost a lot of money. Once, when I went back to my hometown, I ran into him visiting his relatives, so we chatted for a bit.
"He heard I was losing money in business, so he gave me some pointers. He told me which avenues were viable and which were dead ends."
"Is that all?"
"That's all. I followed his advice later, and it actually worked. But we didn't have any other interactions. He didn't give me money, he didn't introduce me to any contacts, and I never sent him any gifts."
