Adding Fuel to the Fire

Qiao San brought him to the door hesitantly.

Murong Chun turned and stared at him. "Qiao San, you need to talk to Young Master."

Qiao San looked toward the courtyard before replying softly, "Elder Murong, you think I don't want to? I don't want to see the position get passed to someone else. But his temper… Ai--!"

"Qiao San, what are you saying!" Chu Li's voice called out from the courtyard.

Qiao San was shocked and immediately replied, "Young Master, nothing, nothing!"

"If you continue to speak nonsense, I will chop off your tongue!" Chu Li called out.

Qiao San yelped, "Yes, yes, I won't say anything anymore."

He flashed a helpless smile at Murong Chun.

Murong Chun gave him a fist salute and walked away.

Back at the main hall, everyone watched him return. They all shook their heads when they saw that he was alone.
