Chapter 739 - Know the Xie Family Incisively (1/2)
Uncle Lu and Xie Zhuolian communicate for a long time and they are finally on the same page.
After figuring out Uncle Lu’s worry, Xie Zhuolian chuckles.
“Uncle Lu, rest assured. I did make the offer to Gao Ge but he rejected it with determination. He didn’t give me any chance of persuasion.”
Uncle Lu would feel disappointed to hear so before this. After all, Gao Ge’s refusal means they fail the mission.
Now, the situation is different.
Uncle Lu feels so relieved to gain such a result. Otherwise, he wouldn’t know how to explain it to the Xie Family and Gao Ge. At that time, he and Xie Zhuolian will be really embarrassed. It is a good thing that Gao Ge’s stand is firm enough and he doesn’t have to face that kind of situation.
“Well, based on what you said, it seems that my family doesn’t want Gao Ge to join the Xie Family?” Xie Zhuolian asks.
She has seen Uncle Lu’s previous reaction. Of course, she feels a bit strange.
Uncle Lu coughs and explains, “Master and the others are unwilling to take the opposite stance from the Dragon Court for Gao Ge.”
“The opposite stance from the Dragon Court?” Xie Zhuolian is a bit confused.
What does he mean?
“Ahem. Your Ladyship, you’ve heard what Heaven Dragon said. He wants to get rid of Gao Ge through us. Did you agree to his request?”
Xie Zhuolian was a bit confused but when she hears that, she immediately comes to her senses. She feels angry and amused.
It turns out that the Xie Family doesn’t want Gao Ge to join them for fear that they may offend the Dragon Court for this matter.
This is quite interesting.
She didn’t want to find Gao Ge but they just forced her to talk him into joining the Xie Family, saying that it was for protecting Gao Ge.
Now?
They mistakenly think the Dragon Court wants to get rid of Gao Ge so they just change their mind.
Although she is a member of the Xie Family, she still feels that the Xie Family’s flip-flopping is so shameful.
Hence, Xie Zhuolian also makes up her mind.
Since the Xie Family has misunderstood Gao Ge, she will let the misunderstanding be. After all, Gao Ge doesn’t want to join the Xie Family. In this case, Gao Ge and she can both be free from trouble. This is a win-win outcome.
“By the way, Your Ladyship, Master asks us to go back as soon as possible,” Uncle Lu says.
They come out this time only to rope in Gao Ge.
Currently, the mission can’t be completed so they don’t have to stay outside.
“Not for now.” Xie Zhuolian shakes her head.
“Oh? Do you have other things to do?” Uncle Lu asks curiously.
“Yeah, I agree to do something for Lord Heaven Dragon,” Xie Zhuolian says calmly.
Uncle Lu pulls a long face and says, “Is it to help Lord Heaven Dragon deal with Gao Ge? Your Ladyship, although the Xie Family and the Dragon Court are on good terms, I don’t think you should accept this thankless task. It is fine that they can deal with Gao Ge. However, if they can’t, Gao Ge will harbor a grudge against us. Maybe he will even seek revenge on us. Something bad may happen. The loss really outweighs the gain…”
When she hears Uncle Lu out, Xie Zhuolian’s face has already turned dark with rage.
She thought that the Xie Family was shilly-shallying over the matter of Gao Ge but now, she realizes that she is wrong.
They always hold an attitude of fence-sitting even to the Dragon Court which they are always on good terms with. They just hope to be at peace with the Dragon Court.
