Chen Xi looked at Liu Bei, whose throat sounded somewhat hoarse. He didn't know what to say. He originally thought he would have to persuade Liu Bei to get him to side with him. Chen Xi had prepared his arguments before coming and was clear about the high possibility of Liu Bei agreeing. Unexpectedly, Liu Bei agreed so readily.
Liu Bei agreed with him as expected, but not because of his arguments; it was because he was Chen Xi. Liu Xuande trusted him; there were no other reasons but trust. Even if everyone else opposed, Liu Bei was willing to stand behind him and support him.
"Lord Xuande, thank you! I've never considered myself one of the strategists; I always felt I have too many shortcomings compared to others. Although I do have many advantages, since Lord Xuande is willing to believe that I can outshine everyone, then I will strive, I will prove myself," Chen Xi's eyes sparkled with a hint of madness.
