When Yang Xiaodong heard that Murong Xuan had finally agreed to help them, she was already on the verge of tears. She quickly wiped them away. ”Murong Xuan, thank you.”
Murong Xuan smirked and waved his hand. The boss had to continue acting.
Of course, Jiang Liu'er was grateful towards Mu Rong Xuan for his help, but that didn't mean that they could write off everything that had happened between them. Of course, they were enemies.
Jiang Liu'er outlined her plan to Murong Xuan, who thought about it for a while.
”I don't get along with that old fogey, that's what everyone knows. If you want to make Long Yuyin believe that your firepower is already focused on me, then I need to call a press conference.”
”There's no need for that right? We're just putting on a show.”
Jiang Liu'er felt that things hadn't gotten to this point yet, but Murong Xuan didn't think so. ”I've worked with Long Yuhuo before, and he has a lot of suspicions. If he does something, you'll be forced to turn the tables, and if he wants to believe it, I'll come forward and inform the reporters. In order not to clean up my dad's mess, we'll sever our relationship with him, and he'll even fight a lawsuit and ask my dad for compensation for not having had a father's love for so many years.”
Jiang Liu'er looked at Murong Xuan. In fact, he had always felt that Murong Xuan didn't have any brains at all, but the method he said just now was completely logical and watertight. Even if he was trying to trick Jiang Liu'er, he would be fooled.
Yang Xiaodong listened to Murong Xuan's words. ”I agree.” ”When Mr. Murong was hospitalized, there were rumours that he wanted to break off the relationship between father and son. This press conference wasn't empty talk. It might be more reliable.”
”En!” Jiang Liu'er agreed. ”Then we'll have to do something big, but you might have to suffer.”
It was also because of himself that Long Yuhuo had asked him to take the Tian Zi sword from him. However, after Jiang Liu'er had taken the sword away from him, Long Yuhuo had told him that if Murong Xuan didn't give him back the Tian Zi sword, he would take Murong Xuan's life.
After all, everyone wanted to stand on the same side as strong people in order to protect their own little lives. However, Long Yuhuo was such an independent person, which made Murong Xuan feel that no matter what he did in front of Long Yuhuo, Long Yuhuo would take his little life as well.
Rather than thinking of a way to avoid the fire of the dragon, he might as well stand on the same side as Jiang Liu'er. Besides, since Jiang Liu'er saved him from the Black Hand, it also meant that Jiang Liu'er was someone who was really capable, even if it was some kind of fence-sitter, he didn't care. At this time, of course, it was most important for him to register.
”Then remember to prepare some medical fees for me or give me a chance to compete with you for Yang Xiaodong.”
Mu Rong Xuan looked at Yang Xiaodong. Yang Xiaodong was the one whom he couldn't let go. He wanted her to come back to him. No matter what, he wanted to be with her.
The sudden change in topic towards Yang Xiaotong made her a little embarrassed. She quickly lowered her head and pretended not to hear it. Jiang Liu'er had already made Yang Xiaotong her own woman. Even if he had given Murong Xuan a chance, Murong Xuan was already familiar with the situation before he had even made a move. There was no need for that.
”I don't care if I say this. Let Xiaotong decide for herself. She will choose whoever she likes. Neither of us have any way to help her make her choice.”
When Mu Rong Xuan saw Yang Xiaodong's lowered head, he naturally knew what she was thinking. He curled his lips into a helpless smile, and within the laughter was mockery of him, so he deserved it. When Yang Xiaodong was by his side, he didn't protect her properly.
”I won't send you guys away, okay?”
Murong Xuan's mood suddenly dropped. He couldn't continue talking to Jiang Liu'er, so he could only gently order them to leave. Jiang Liu'er and Yang Xiaodong didn't say anything else as they left the Mu Rong Xuan family.
Jiang Liu'er was driving. She kept peeking at Yang Xiaodong's expression in the mirror. He felt that something was wrong when Yang Xiaodong left the Mu Rong family.
”Are you okay?”
Her mind was filled with Murong Xuan's words about fair competition. She hadn't thought that even after so long, Murong Xuan would still care about him so much. Although his heart and people were already like a river, it was impossible for her to completely forget those days with Murong Xuan before the river flowed.
