Hearing this, Song Kaijiang was stunned for a moment, thinking of a possibility.

However, this possibility only flashed through his mind.

Because this possibility, in his opinion, was absolutely impossible.

"Grandpa, didn't you understand what I meant?"

Seeing that his grandfather didn't show much shock, Song Anguo was completely puzzled.

"I understood."

Song Kaijiang said lightly, "That Chen kid must have killed Anbang and knew he was in the wrong, so he went to the Bear Country overnight, and after a lot of effort, he killed that Luther, took his head, and rushed back to the Northern Territory to curry favor with the chief."

"I admit it's amazing that he can do this, but what does this prove? Some top assassins can do the same thing he can do!"

"If you judge that Chen Xiao can defeat Jiu Qiansui (Nine Thousand Years) because of this, then you are completely wrong!"

Song Kaijiang looked at his unpromising grandson, his eyes full of contempt.

As if mocking this unpromising grandson for not having seen the world.

"Alas."

Song Anguo sighed, "Grandpa, you still didn't understand what I meant. The point is the twenty minutes that Chen Xiao was out... I admit that if you have enough preparation, many assassins can assassinate a country's general, but who else but Chen Xiao can enter another country's military base so easily and take the head of its general?"

"Are you saying that Chen kid killed Luther in those twenty minutes?"

Song Kaijiang asked incredulously.

"Otherwise, what do you think I'm talking about?"

Song Anguo rolled his eyes.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

Song Kaijiang retorted sharply.

To take the head of an enemy general thousands of miles away as if picking something out of a bag is the magic of gods. How could a mere mortal do it?

But after a moment, Song Kaijiang, who had calmed down, became listless.

Because he knew that what he thought was 'absolutely impossible' was actually happening.

And this was the key to the chief's change of attitude.

For a moment, Song Kaijiang slumped in his chair, his mind in a mess.

When Song Anguo saw his grandfather like this, he knew that his grandfather had realized what kind of existence Chen Xiao was.

He took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire and said, "Grandpa, now you know how terrifying Chen Xiao is, right? To put it bluntly, if the country had to choose between the Song family and Chen Xiao, the Song family wouldn't even have a 10% chance of winning."

"As for Jiu Qiansui (Nine Thousand Years), of course, I don't know how strong Jiu Qiansui (Nine Thousand Years) is. I can't guarantee that Chen Xiao will definitely defeat Jiu Qiansui (Nine Thousand Years)."

"If, I mean if, Jiu Qiansui (Nine Thousand Years) is defeated, then there will be no room for reconciliation between our Song family and Chen Xiao, and the Song family will be in a situation of eternal doom!"

"So, are you sure you still want to avenge this?"

After saying the last sentence, Song Anguo hooked the corner of his mouth and showed a hint of unobtrusive triumph.

"I won't."

Song Kaijiang shook his head blankly.

He already understood that this was a gamble. If they won, the Song family would not get any benefits other than venting their anger.

But if they lost, the Song family... there would be no Song family.

"Grandpa, I think we should not only not take revenge, but also try every means to befriend Chen Xiao. Now is a rare opportunity, right in front of you."

Song Anguo said.

"What are you up to again?"

Song Kaijiang suddenly began to feel that this unpromising grandson was not as unpromising as he had imagined.

"Didn't you want me to pass a message to Chen Xiao? You can just take this opportunity to carry thorns and plead guilty!"

Song Anguo said.

"Carry thorns and plead guilty? Why? That kid killed my grandson, and I haven't done anything to that kid!"

Song Kaijiang glared again.

"Grandpa, I didn't ask you to carry thorns and plead guilty to Chen Xiao. I'm referring to the grievances between us and the Li family. As far as I know, Li Ziqing and An Ran have a good relationship. She will definitely not make things difficult for you for An Ran's sake."

Song Anguo said firmly.

"Li Ziqing and An Ran have a good relationship? But didn't you just say that An Ran and Chen Xiao..."

The relationship between young people is too complicated, the old master Song said, expressing he couldn't understand.

"Grandpa, don't worry about these details. Let them solve the relationship between them. Now, there is an opportunity for our Song family to soar to the top right in front of us!"

Seeing his grandfather following his plan step by step, Song Anguo looked excited.

"Where does this soaring to the top come from?"

Song Kaijiang felt that he was really old and couldn't keep up with Song Anguo's train of thought.

"Grandpa, think about it, tomorrow's Hongmen Banquet (鸿门宴, a banquet that is a trap) will not change, but the position of our Song family has changed. If Chen Xiao defeats Jiu Qiansui (Nine Thousand Years), the other four major families will definitely not end well, then in the future, the imperial city will not be dominated by our Song family alone!"

Song Anguo began to dream of great things!

"What if Chen Xiao loses?"

"If he loses, he loses. We are not with Chen Xiao. If he loses, what does it have to do with us?"

Song Anguo looked as a matter of course.

"You asked me to carry thorns and plead guilty to Li Ziqing, and then I will go to Baxian Tower (Eight Immortals Restaurant). Wouldn't everything be exposed?"

Song Kaijiang sneered. In his opinion, Song Anguo was still too young and didn't think carefully enough!

However, he did not expect that Song Anguo had been prepared for this: "Wouldn't it be over if you didn't go? You just say that you went out at night tonight and caught a cold, and you are lying in bed, and the other old guys can't find fault!"

"..."

The corners of Song Kaijiang's mouth twitched, and he couldn't speak for a long time.

"Grandpa, what's wrong with you?"

Song Anguo asked with concern. He saw that the corners of his grandfather's mouth were twitching, and he thought that his old man had a stroke.

"Alas!"

Song Kaijiang sighed, "I, Song Kaijiang, have been upright and honest all my life, how come I have such a treacherous and cunning grandson like you!"

Song Anguo smiled, because he could hear that his grandfather was not blaming him.

"Hehe, Grandpa, I'm not treacherous and cunning, I'm just saying that those who know the times are heroes, and good birds choose wood to perch on. The most important thing in a person's life is to be able to make the right choice. As long as you make two or three key choices right, you can be worry-free for a lifetime!"

Hearing this 'heretical theory', Song Kaijiang shook his head helplessly.

In his mind, he still likes that domineering grandson.

But I have to say that Song Anguo's remarks today also made him look at him with admiration.

"You go out, Grandpa is tired and wants to rest."

Song Kaijiang waved his hand, signaling that Song Anguo could leave.

"Then tomorrow..."

Song Anguo looked at his grandfather expectantly.

"Do as you said."

Song Kaijiang made a final decision...
