The situation suddenly seemed to reach a stalemate. When the man said they'd talk another day, he hadn't meant to apologize to Xu Ke and Ariel. He just wanted to gracefully exit the situation with Wen Xin in front of everyone else, never expecting Xu Ke to say such a thing.
At this moment, if he didn't apologize, it would clearly show Wen Xin that he was just brushing her off. But apologizing publicly would be like putting his dignity on the ground for everyone to trample on. Neither choice was advantageous for him.
The expression on the man's face immediately grew solemn.
"It seems the apology you just mentioned wasn't sincere, so in that case, we'll be leaving." Seeing that the man remained silent without any intention to speak, Xu Ke slightly curled his lips, let out a faint scoff from his nose, and was about to leave with Ariel, only to be held back by the man's grab on his arm.
