Old Su's lips lifted up in a smirk. Although he knew he could lose the game he had begun back in his time, he could still not miss the moment where he could defame Shin Tingming and get on his nerves. 

Shin Tingming's gaze turned sharp as it pierced deep into the old man's bones. His fingers clenched into fists which were about to raise to slam hard on the armrest of his chair when suddenly, Chen Rui held him back. 

As if already guessed his gesture, she reached out to hold his hand before patting it gently with assurance. "It's okay. Hold in it for the time. We can always retaliate at the right time." She said softly that it was just him hearing her. 

Shin Tingming took a deep breath in and nodded. She was right. At the moment, getting all riled up at the words of Old Su would only prove him right. And he won't let that happen.
