"Xiao Hu."
Chen Jie called out deliberately after hearing Xiao Hu’s words, stopping him from continuing.
Upon hearing this, Liu Laoguai looked at Chen Jie and said, "Hey, Jiu Si, don’t blame Xiao Hu, that’s fine. If Nan Batian dares to act recklessly, we shouldn’t be afraid of him. If it won’t work, we’ll just go to Darugachi and accuse him!"
After hearing this, Chen Jie picked up a teapot beside him and poured a cup of tea for Liu Laoguai, saying, "Guild Leader Liu, please calm down and have a sip of tea. I know the Feng River closure has cost you a lot. If Guild Cao is really strapped for cash, I can lend you some to tide you over, but as for accusing Nan Batian, I’m afraid I can’t get involved."
"Why not?"
Liu Laoguai looked at Chen Jie, puzzled.
Chen Jie paused for a moment before saying, "There are two reasons. First, Nan Batian is the leader of the Fishing Guild, and my White Tiger Hall is one of his subsidiaries. In name, I am his subordinate. If a subordinate sues his superior and others find out, they will say I, Chen Jiusi, don’t understand hierarchy and am a despicable man."
"This..."
Liu Laoguai was at a loss for words but soon regained his composure and said, "Jiu Si, you’re being foolish. Nan Batian wants you dead, yet you still care about hierarchy? Why are you so old-fashioned?"
Chen Jie took a sip from his tea cup and said, "I’d rather Nan Batian be the unkind one than to be Chen Jiusi the unrighteous. I ask for Guild Leader Liu’s understanding."
