It was Wu Jing’s first ti here. Seeing the vast mountains covered in dense trees, trying to find a person seed nearly impossible, especially at night.
While he was worrying about this, Tie Zhuzi suddenly stood there shouting loudly, "Xiao Xuan, where are you, co back quickly."
Tie Zhuzi’s voice was very loud, and you could tell he used all his strength. Being night, his voice traveled far.
The sound spread through the mountains like waves.
Wu Jing was startled and quickly pulled Tie Zhuzi into the car.
"What are you doing?" Tie Zhuzi asked anxiously.
"You’re asking for death," Wu Jing shouted, then pulled him to retrace their steps.
On the way there, they had already noticed people patrolling halfway up the mountain. Now that Tie Zhuzi had shouted, it surely reached the enemy’s ears. If they didn’t retreat imdiately, they wouldn’t be able to leave.
"Hurry back, I still need to find Xiao Xuan. If Brother Yu cos out and finds that I lost Xiao Xuan, he’ll definitely deal with ," Tie Zhuzi said anxiously.
"Xiao Xuan is already an adult, he’s not a child, don’t worry," Wu Jing said, ignoring Tie Zhuzi and pulling him toward the back.
He was also worried. If Xiang Yu ca out and found his two good brothers missing, he’d go mad.
Wu Jing drove slowly, thinking about future matters as they went.
When they returned to the villa, it was already 3 a.m.
Tie Zhuzi regretted saying what he did to Xiao Xuan. He was a bit self-reproachful, wondering what to do if sothing happened to Xiao Xuan.
Just as the two parked and got out, they saw a shadow sitting on the steps outside.
They approached and were both stunned, especially Tie Zhuzi, who was so happy he almost shouted out.
"Where have you been, you brat?" Tie Zhuzi lifted Xiao Xuan and checked him up and down.
He never knew seeing Xiao Xuan could be such a joyful thing.
"We thought you went into the mountains," Wu Jing said happily.
Xiao Xuan gave a bitter smile and looked at Tie Zhuzi, saying, "Your shouting was too piercing."
Tie Zhuzi and Wu Jing were both taken aback, finally reacting, and exchanged a glance before bursting into laughter.
It seed Xiao Xuan really did go there. Just as he was planning to sneak in, Tie Zhuzi’s shout scared him.
And the shout also alerted the guards above. Seeing he lost his chance, Xiao Xuan decided to return.
"Xiao Xuan, don’t do this kind of thing again. Whatever happens, we’ll face it together," Wu Jing said, looking at Xiao Xuan with deep emotion.
If the two of them hadn’t arrived on ti, Xiao Xuan might never have returned.
"Exactly, you’re already so grown up and an adult, how could you do sothing so brainless?" Tie Zhuzi said, pushing Xiao Xuan’s head.
Xiao Xuan was speechless, standing there without speaking, acknowledging that he had been sowhat reckless.
As the three were chatting, Li Bingbing suddenly appeared on the second floor in a nightgown.
"Don’t you three ever stop? It’s the middle of the night, can’t you let people sleep?" Li Bingbing said with disheveled hair, looking listless.
The three looked up, then quickly lowered their heads, nearly having nosebleeds. Xiao Xuan’s face turned red instantly, and then they all coughed and walked away separately.
The next morning, Rumus ca to see Xiang Yu. He made everyone else leave and stayed alone with Xiang Yu.
Xiang Yu’s photo and so physical characteristics had already been submitted to the higher-ups, and now he was waiting for their approval.
"Who is Xiao Xuan to you?" Rumus suddenly asked.
Hearing this na, Xiang Yu’s body involuntarily trembled. Being locked up here, what he feared most was his brothers coming to save him, as it’d be throwing themselves into the net.
"Why do you ask?" Xiang Yu tried to act as if nothing mattered to him.
Rumus was a sly old fox. Seeing Xiang Yu’s expression, he already guessed.
"Last night he tried to get you out," Rumus said casually, lighting a cigarette and taking a puff.
"Where is he?" Xiang Yu asked.
"Do you want to see him?" Rumus wore a calm expression, as if everything was under control.
"No," Xiang Yu replied and then closed his eyes.
"If I said I caught him last night, would you beg to release him?" Rumus asked with a confident smile.
"I wouldn’t," Xiang Yu said straightforwardly. "Firstly, you couldn’t catch him, and secondly, even if you did, you wouldn’t easily let him go."
Seeing Xiang Yu’s calm face, Rumus suddenly felt that the man in front of him was incredibly capable, unshakeable by anything.
"What do you plan to do with ?" Xiang Yu asked, reopening his eyes to look at Rumus.
"In a few days, you’ll be taken out and shot," Rumus said, taking a deep breath of smoke.
He was always watching Xiang Yu’s face but was disappointed to find that, except when Xiao Xuan was ntioned, Xiang Yu remained calm at all other tis.
"Aren’t you afraid of dying?" Rumus asked with curiosity.
"Afraid," Xiang Yu said calmly.
Rumus shook his head helplessly. From Xiang Yu’s deanor, there was no sign of fear.
"As for how to deal with you, you’ll know in a couple of days. But don’t have too much hope; you might really be executed," Rumus said.
Xiang Yu replied with a simple "hm" and said nothing else.
Death didn’t an much to him. On the battlefield, he had been at death’s door many tis.
Seeing that he couldn’t get anything out of Xiang Yu, Rumus stood up and left.
Since submitting Xiang Yu’s information, higher-ups went through all sorts of data and found no Chinese collaborator.
For safety reasons, they handed Xiang Yu over to the central military departnt.
Even there, no information on Xiang Yu was found, so they issued a notice to the lower level saying the person could be dealt with.
However, at that mont, the central military departnt received a notice that a Chinese delegation would visit in two days, asking them to prepare for all security asures.
After a thorough discussion, it was decided to hold off dealing with the matter until the Chinese group arrived, and the person would be handed over to them.
This would not only show their trust and friendship towards China but also reveal China’s true attitude, determining if Xiang Yu was indeed one of theirs.
Xiang Yu was unaware of all this. Although unafraid of death, he didn’t want to die dishonorably here.
While appearing disoriented these days, he had been carefully observing his surroundings.
But to his dismay, there was an entire battalion guarding him. Even if he could untie himself, escaping was no simple feat.
He was speechless by the attention from the army’s commander, almost as if they feared he would fly away.
"Ah, my stomach hurts, soone co quickly," Xiang Yu suddenly shouted...
