Did I understand it correctly? Xu Yan didn't approach Haoming with the intention to seduce and marry him, right?…
HaoMing had been stringing her along, refusing to be interviewed, not taking calls from her assistant. He had already known everything about her by then, just playing a waiting game, knowing she would finally approach him to get that interview. He understood her that well. She approached him and bam! The meeting went as we saw it, but we also saw his surprise at her talking about the agave.
