I could only go upstairs and knock on the door of Su Mu's room. I heard Su Mu's wary voice coming from inside.
"who?"
“It’s me, Lu Xiaonan,” I said.
Su Mu came out from inside, opened the door for me, and looked at me warily. Only after confirming that I was alone did he breathe a sigh of relief and let me in.
Once inside, I noticed he was holding a gun.
"Why did you come up here instead of resting downstairs?" I asked.
Su Mu limped to the sofa and sat down. He picked up a bottle of wine from the table, took a swig, and said, "Someone down there tried to kill me. Do you think I could still be there?"
I frowned.
He explained, "You went out just now? You should have seen what's going on in Jiangbei. Some people have already started forming cliques."
I said, "I see it, can't you solve it?"
"A solution?" Su Mu snorted coldly. "What solution can I have? Biyuan's actions today have completely disrupted Jiangbei's rhythm. The people of Jiangbei were not very united to begin with, and now that a major event has occurred, many people have started to have ulterior motives again, wanting to become independent and wanting to take my place."
"You really have no ideas at all?"
Su Mu frowned, not saying anything directly, but instead asking me, "Let's not talk about that for now, why did you come to see me?"
I said, "I plan to leave Jiangbei tonight and make sure everyone who needs to be settled is settled."
Su Mu stared at me, sighed, and said, "I know I can't stop you no matter what I say. How about this, you do me a favor and help me resolve the current situation in Jiangbei, and I'll let you leave tonight."
"If you have a way, this matter can be easily resolved." I agreed.
Su Mu nodded, "Then it's settled."
