Ye Xiuchen smiled and said: "I don't dare, I'm just telling the truth. Although our Jue Kill Sect is just a gangland organization, there are many masters in the sect, and we also know a little bit about the secrets of the powerful people in the capital. Mr. Xiao might as well consider it?"
"
Xiao Chengyi casually played with the teacup on the table and asked him in a faint voice: "Why do you want that position? Is it to avenge the late Duke Zhenguo, or is it because of your selfish desires?"
Ye Xiuchen was stunned. He really had never thought about this problem. He only wanted to get this world because it was his mother's wish.
He wanted to help her realize it, he wanted to make her happy, and he wanted her to stop living in hatred.
Ye Xiuchen secretly shook his hands: "It's for my mother."
For her, he has been trying hard to be what she expected.
Even if he didn't like it or felt tired of it, he never backed down because he didn't want to disappoint her.
Xiao Chengyi was touched when he heard these words. He probably knew why the Juesha Sect was destroyed overnight in his previous life.
He sighed, feeling a little heavy in his heart. If Ye Xiuchen learned that his respected mother had been using him as a pawn, I wonder how he would feel?
Since he agreed to conceal it, he would not tell Ye Xiuchen the truth, but if Su Xinyue refused to confess, the consequences would be disastrous.
Xiao Chengyi thought for a while, then looked at Ye Xiuchen and asked, "Have you never thought about yourself?"
Ye Xiuchen's expression moved slightly, but he didn't say a word for a while.
Shen Zhixu, who had been sitting quietly in the wheelchair, glanced at him. Although he had not known each other for a long time, he had a temperament that wanted to surrender, so he knew him well.
Everything Ye Xiuchen did was for his mother. He had never thought about himself. Even he felt that his life was too tiring and he once advised him to think about himself.
But he......
"Tell me about you, what exactly do you want?"
Ye Xiuchen avoided Xiao Chengyi's question and asked him instead.
Xiao Chengyi raised his eyebrows and said, "What I want is for my family to be safe and to win the hearts of everyone."
Of course, there is also the matter of clearing the grievances of one’s biological parents.
Ye Xiuchen listened to his words, froze for a moment and murmured: "The safety of your family means winning the heart of one person, which sounds simple but is actually difficult. If you don't have power, what can you do to protect your family and the one you love?"
Xiao Chengyi did not comment, he stood up and said: "So, I also want the position you want!"
Ye Xiuchen suddenly came back to his senses with a shock. He stared at Xiao Chengyi and saw that he was not joking. He couldn't help but narrowed his eyes: "Do you also want that position?"
Xiao Chengyi waved his sleeves: "Who wouldn't want to be the Ninth Five-Year-Old? Only by standing at the highest point can you protect what I want to protect, right?"
"So, Mr. Xiao wants to be my enemy?"
There was a murderous look in Ye Xiuchen's eyes.
Xiao Chengyi smiled: "That's not necessarily the case. Master Ye might as well go back and ask your mother if she still wants this position. If she doesn't want it, then Xiao will be rude."
Ye Xiuchen was a little puzzled, but Shen Zhixu understood the meaning of his words and asked: "According to Master Xiao, will Madam give up the planning that she has been planning for so many years?"
Xiao Chengyi couldn't guess, he was just betting that Su Xinyue would find her way back and stop being obsessed.
He chuckled lightly and said with a pun: "You will know when you go back and ask Mrs. Su."
