Chapter 704: Chapter 704: How Can Someone Else Sleep Soundly by the Pillow
When the three of them were together, they always spoke very directly.
There were no reservations, but they would never betray any party. Whenever a problem arose, they would work together to solve it.
Rong Shaoze asked expressionlessly, "Have they made any moves?"
Xu Yao shook his head, "Not for the time being."
That meant that action would be taken soon, and it was inevitable.
Although Tao Hua was not part of the Fenghuang group, he knew everything.
He laughed and said, "I guess the Qianyue group will be the first to strike against Fenghuang. No matter what, the Qianyue group’s lair is in Asia, close to us.
Their power has grown significantly lately, and Fenghuang has just suffered a severe blow. It’s the perfect time to deal with us.
As the saying goes, ’How can one sleep soundly by the side of a rival?’ Our existence is the biggest threat to them.
Only by eliminating us will they have no contenders in Asia and can sleep without any worries."
Xu Yao nodded, "Exactly, that’s what I think too. So we need to prepare immediately to avoid being caught off guard."
He then looked at Rong Shaoze and said, "Fenghuang still needs you to take control of the big picture. Consider what our next move should be."
Rong Shaoze pondered, "Just like you said, we should just prepare. We’re currently in recovery and not suited to be involved in any struggle. Moreover, whether a conflict will break out is still uncertain."
"You’re right. We can only prepare, and if everyone gets ready while they never act, it will greatly affect our morale. No matter what happens in the future, we’ll just adapt."
After discussing for a while longer, Xu Yao left.
Rong Shaoze raised an eyebrow at Tao Hua, "Got something else?"
"Have you decided to pull yourself together?" Tao Hua asked instead of answering.
Rong Shaoze leaned back in his leather chair, his lips pressed together in silence.
Tao Hua spoke earnestly, "As your brother, I really don’t want to see you tormenting yourself. I hope you can let go of Lin Xinlan and spare yourself some suffering. You’ve loved her enough, and since she doesn’t want you, why should you be heartbroken over her? Shaoze, you should move on. If the old doesn’t go, the new won’t come."
Rong Shaoze stared at him strangely, his gaze skeptical and deep.
Tao Hua faced his eyes, felt a tremor inside, and asked with a puzzled look, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Are you hiding something from me?" Rong Shaoze asked with suspicion.
Tao Hua’s expression was calm as he smiled lightly, "What could I possibly hide from you? You’re being paranoid."
"Am I?"
Rong Shaoze narrowed his eyes and added, "I suspect you’ve been acting strange lately. You’ve been very attentive to me, almost overly so. Tell me the truth, Tao Hua, do you know something?"
Tao Hua raised his eyebrows, his expression unchanging.
"I don’t know anything. I’m not being overly attentive; I’m just taking extra care of you because we’re brothers. Hey, you’re not thinking that my concern for you is all fake, are you?"
Rong Shaoze slightly curved his lips and said indifferently, "Do I not know you? Your concern is excessive. If you weren’t feeling guilty, would you care about me this much?"
"Of course!" Tao Hua’s face showed a you’re wronging me, and I’m hurt expression.
"Rong Shaoze, would I not care about you at all? If I were in your situation, I believe I would care for you just the same."
