Zhao Dingli had to explain with a cold voice, "This is to avoid causing trouble for Li Xiaoyun. But since they are good friends, why give what can be given to her to someone else?"
"But if I contact her directly, others will definitely say Li Xiaoyun got it through connections, especially through my connections; it makes a bigger difference if that's the case," Zhao Dingli said.
"Knowing that Li Xiaoyun will face some gossip in the upcoming collaboration, but if she doesn't take it, she suffers more losses, so I'd rather let her take it," Zhao Dingli said.
"There's no way around it," Zhao Dingli continued, "But as for our relationship, if we can keep it secret temporarily to prevent her from being attacked by others, isn't that better?"
Rui Changhuai nodded, thinking Zhao Dingli's explanation made good sense.
"Well, President, if there's nothing else, I'll be going," Rui Changhuai said again.
