Chapter 417: They Should Support Each Other

Xu Xiang knew what he said was right, so she smiled and said softly: "I’m sorry, Yucheng. I didn’t take your feelings into consideration. I won’t hide anything from you from now on."

Seeing that Mu Yucheng was still frowning, she held his hand, shook it gently, and said coquettishly: "Yucheng~ I know I was wrong. Forgive me, okay?"

Seeing Xu Xiang blinking at him with her pair of clear and beautiful eyes, and hearing her sweet voice calling his name, Mu Yucheng’s heart melted. He sighed helplessly, stroked her nose bridge gently with his index finger and said, "There will be no second time."

Xu Xiang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, nodded, and hugged his arm. She smiled sweetly at him and said, "Mhm. I will listen to you."

Xiao Shao, who was sitting across from the two of them, almost crushed the cup in his hand. He lowered his eyes, hiding his feelings deeply. No one knew that he was almost going crazy with jealousy. Watching the woman he loved coquettishly coaxing another man, his heart felt like being pierced by countless sharp knives, making it difficult for him to breathe.

There was a self-deprecating smile on his lips when he thought: ’Those who love more are losers. This statement is indeed true.’

Huan Yun, who was sitting next to him, saw that smile. She sighed and thought: ’Even a strong person like Xiao Shao still got hurt because of his love for Xu Xiang. I’d better not jump into this pit of fire.’

Seeing Xiao Shao’s sad and helpless face, Huan Yun reached out and patted his hand lightly. Xiao Shao raised his head in surprise and saw the complicated emotions inside her eyes. He was lost in thought until he saw Huan Yun roll her eyes at Xu Xiang.

Huan Yun took back her hand that covered Xiao Shao’s hand and asked, "Xu Xiang, can you stop spreading dog food everywhere? Where is your domineering and cold face? Why have you suddenly become as disgusting as those women? Has your brain turned into water after falling in love?"

Xu Xiang knew who Huan Yun was talking about. She raised her eyebrows slightly and asked, "Why? Do you still hold a grudge against my elder brother’s fans?"

Too lazy to talk about those brainless fans, Huan Yun said, "We are talking about something serious here. If you want flirting with Mu Yucheng, can you do it behind closed doors?"

Hearing what she said, Mu Yucheng blushed. He coughed lightly and said, "Miss Huan, I’m sorry if we make you uncomfortable."

Huan Yun looked at him and said with a smile: "It’s alright. I like handsome men, so I forgive you."

After saying that, she looked at Xiao Shao who was staring at her, and winked at him. As people who had one-sided love, they should support each other.

Seeing that Xiao Shao’s expression had returned to normal, Huan Yun turned to look at Xu Xiang and asked, "Have you caught the spy that poisoned the food and water?"

Xu Xiang nodded, and then shook her head. Huan Yun was confused by her nodding and shaking and asked, "What do you mean by nodding and shaking your head? Have you caught the spies or not?"

Looking at her impatient and curious look, Xu Xiang said, "We caught one group of the spies, but the other group managed to run away. A Lu Qian is still tracking them down right now, and he will join us after he completes his mission."

Huan Yun had never met the five brothers before, so she asked, "It seems that you trust these people a lot. The Xu Xiang I know is not someone who can trust others easily."

Hearing what she said, Xu Xiang smiled and said, "Besides Yucheng, I trust them the most."

After Xu Xiang said that, Huan Yun noticed that Xiao Shao’s expression changed slightly. She sighed in her heart, looked at Xu Xiang with a pout and asked, "What about Xiao Shao and me? Do you trust us or not?"

Xu Xiang looked at the two of them for a while, smiled and then said, "Of course I trust you and Young Master Xiao."

Satisfied with her answer, Huan Yun said with a smile: "That’s more like it."

Unlike Huan Yun who was satisfied with Xu Xiang’s answer, Xiao Shao was not happy. From Xu Xiang’s answer just now, he already knew his position in her heart. He is not even as good as those people from secluded tribes.

While Xiao Shao was still struggling with his feelings, Xu Xiang asked, "Young Master Xiao, what are your next plans?"

Hearing her question, Xiao Shao looked at her and said, "I plan to clear out the barbarians first, and then declare war on the Shang Empire. What about Miss Xu? What is your next plan?"

Xu Xiang smiled and said, "We are here to support you. We will act according to your plan."

After hearing what she said, Xiao Shao’s mood improved. Seeing that he finally smiled, Huan Yun asked, "Since you have decided to clean up the barbarians first, do you have any specific plans?"

Xiao Shao nodded and said, "Now we just need to wait for Cao Qinbo to take action first. I got the news that Cao Qinbo had sent more rations, weapons and war horses to Ka Huo Long. When the time comes, I will lead the hidden guards to rob them."

Xu Xiang thought about the situation of the Shang Empire and asked, "Where did Cao Qinbo get his rations, weapons and war horses? With the current situation of the Shang Empire, I think it is impossible for him to obtain those things without the emperor’s knowledge."

Speaking of Zhao Jue, Xiao Shao sighed and said, "Ah Jue should already know about what Cao Qinbo was doing."

"Then he just let Cao Qinbo do whatever he wanted?" Xu Xiang asked with a slight frown.
