The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Chapter 1512 - 1511: Refused Audience

"It's nothing, really. Lao Geng is quite impressive. Xiao Yue almost lost her life, but he managed to bring her back."Saying this, Cha Xiangzi could talk all day without pause about the tragic story of Geng Bucuo and Xiao Yue, the star-crossed lovers.

Their relationship was genuinely touching, heart-wrenching, watching them made one cry just hearing about it.

Geng Bucuo, in order to find Elixir Pills to heal Xiao Yue, exchanged and sold everything of value he had. The sixth-grade pills he gritted his teeth to exchange are now entirely in Xiao Yue's body.

Xiao Yue more than once told Geng Bucuo that her life was worthless to begin with, that it was Tang Rao who gave it to her. Since Wang Han was Tang Rao's woman, if she wanted it back, she could take it back.

If Tang Rao's woman wanted her life, it meant Tang Rao wanted her life.

As long as it was the master's wish, she would listen to whatever the master said.

If the master wanted her life, she wouldn't argue at all.

"Boss, don't you think Xiao Yue is something else? Lao Geng recently brought back several sixth-grade Elixir Pills for her, and she refuses to take them, saying her life isn't hers to own. She can't make her own decisions. If she took the pills without permission, it would be disobedience, and she couldn't bear such a charge."

What disobedience, what charge she couldn't bear? When Cha Xiangzi heard this, he went out of his way to find Xiao Yue, telling her a bunch of things, and finally coaxed her into taking the pills.

The only thing unclear was why Xiao Yue had thoughts of ending her life. Was life too hard, or was there another reason?

"You mean Geng Bucuo tried everything to treat Xiao Yue, and yet Xiao Yue wishes for death?"

If what Cha Xiangzi said was true, then the situation was indeed serious.

"Something like that, boss. I don't know if I should say this; saying it might upset you, but not saying it feels suffocating."

It was better to say it, rather than hesitantly holding it back, Cha Xiangzi only felt a pain on his behind.

"If you have to say it, just say it all at once, or else I'll hit you again!"

Tang Rao appeared like a tyrant, but Cha Xiangzi knew he was just joking. If he really wanted to punish Cha Xiangzi, it wouldn't just be this harmless.

"Boss, I think Xiao Yue is waiting for your attitude."

A man's understanding of a woman was like a grain of sand trying to understand the vast ocean. To fully understand it was impossible, but understanding a bit, Cha Xiangzi believed he still had that insight.

"What attitude?"

This time, Tang Rao did not quite understand the approach.

"Boss, think about it, who hurt Xiao Yue? Xiao Yue always says her life is a gift from you. She believes no one has the right to take it, not even herself. But the one wanting to kill her is your woman, so she naturally sees it as your woman executing your orders."

When had Tang Rao ever said Wang Han was acting on his orders?

He didn't even know why Wang Han went out to the training grounds to make trouble for Xiao Yue and his brothers.

"Nonsense! When could a woman speak on my behalf?"

Tang Rao clenched his fist, wanting to punch the wall, but couldn't bring himself to do it. He was worried he'd damage the wall and end up spending a fortune to fix it. Why bother with such theatrics when he wasn't swimming in money?

"Boss, you can say that, but for us subordinates, how can we think that way? I feel Xiao Yue has been with you for so long, always working with all her heart and soul. Even if there aren't any achievements, there has been hard work. She just wants to serve by your side, with no other intentions. It's not a sin worthy of death. Boss, you should take the time to see Xiao Yue. After all, you personally appointed her as the Sect Leader of the Kao Shan Sect. If you don't visit her, it might seem heartless."

See Xiao Yue?

Tang Rao had thought about visiting Xiao Yue, but was it appropriate at this time?

Even if he wanted to visit Xiao Yue, Tang Rao must first see Geng Bucuo.

Because Xiao Yue was injured for offending Tang Rao's 'woman', there's a good chance Geng Bucuo would turn against Tang Rao in front of Xiao Yue to defend his beloved. Tang Rao didn't want that, and neither did Geng Bucuo.

But this fishbone stuck in their throat, only Tang Rao and Geng Bucuo working together could remove it. How could Tang Rao do it alone?

"I was just about to visit her."

After Tang Rao stated his intention, Cha Xiangzi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Both sides were Cha Xiangzi's brothers. Whether it was the one being hurt or the other side, neither was the result Tang Rao wanted to see.

When Tang Rao found Geng Bucuo, he was hitting a human-shaped frame made of Mystic Iron alone, striking it incessantly until his hands bled, and yet there was no thought of stopping.

He had long heard footsteps behind him, steady steps, walking with a firm and confident aura. Under the subtle pressure Geng Bucuo intentionally emanated, this person was undeniably Tang Rao.

Once, no matter the occasion, whenever Geng Bucuo saw Tang Rao, he would always stop what he was doing and respectfully call out 'boss.'

Today, not only was there no greeting, but he didn't even give a proper acknowledgment. From the moment Tang Rao got close, he had already begun confronting him.

"What, still haven't cooled off?"

Geng Bucuo continued hitting the frame, while Tang Rao found an empty spot, pulled out a rocking chair, lay on it, and basked in the sun while watching Geng Bucuo's personal performance.

"I meant to visit Xiao Yue directly, but I was afraid you'd misunderstand, so I came to consult your opinion first."

Tang Rao made no attempt to hide the complex relationship between the three of them.

The more open he was about it, the less likely there was anything between Tang Rao and Xiao Yue. It was precisely because of this that Geng Bucuo's movements gradually slowed down.

"I know you like Xiao Yue, and I know you're upset with me because of her. I'm here today to explain that I was unaware of Wang Han's actions against Xiao Yue."

Whatever Tang Rao wanted to clarify, it wasn't that he had any feelings for Xiao Yue or any other kinds of emotions.

If there were indeed any romantic feelings, Tang Rao would have shown up immediately when Xiao Yue got into trouble; he would have done everything to save her, and would have punished Wang Han. But everyone could see that Tang Rao didn't do anything; Xiao Yue didn't receive any favor or help from him, and Wang Han wasn't punished for injuring Xiao Yue or the Kao Shan Sect brothers.

"What's the use of saying this now? Xiao Yue is doing quite well, recovering well. I'm afraid if you visit her now, she won't be able to handle the shock."

Geng Bucuo's meaning was clear; he was refusing the meeting between Xiao Yue and Tang Rao. He understood the matter between Tang Rao and Xiao Yue well.

"You're worried that Xiao Yue will regret being with you after meeting me?"

Tang Rao hit the nail on the head, leaving Geng Bucuo with no chance to say otherwise.

Because everything he said was true, Geng Bucuo wasn't just worried; he was scared.
