Xiao Mu actually supported Xiao Yue and Su Nuo, so he immediately added from the side, "He knows that it's another matter whether he wants to do it or not. He's on the team now, so it's hard for us seniors to interfere in many things."

"Uncle Xiao, Xiao Yue, if Xiao Yue is with me, he can't inherit the Xiao Clan. Is that what you mean?" Su Nuo asked again with a trembling voice.

Xiao Mu nodded, "Yes, but Su Nuo, you should know that these are all problems he should solve himself. Since he likes them, he should shoulder the responsibility he should shoulder. You don't need to feel any psychological burden."

"I know, I know. Xiao Yue has always known about this. He has always said that he wants to be with me. How can this person be?" Su Nuo felt her heart ache so much that she almost suffocated.

She finally understood that in this relationship, she wasn't the only one who was sacrificing. Xiao Yue sacrificed more for her.

He had always thought that he was the weak person, but now he knew how much Xiao Yue had to pay to be with him, and this price was something he would never be able to repay in his entire life.

Xiao Mu could see that Su Nuo had suffered a great blow because of this matter, so he stood up and walked to Su Nuo's side. He comforted her warmly, "Su Nuo, don't be sad. I believe that Xiao Yue, like his father, must be someone who dares to love and bear responsibility. He definitely won't bear you. What we as elders can do for him is to respect his choice."

"Xiao Mu, what are you talking about?" Yue Qian felt that Xiao Mu's words were obviously meant to connive at Xiao Yue and Su Nuo's company.

Xiao Mu replied coldly, "I know what I'm talking about. I don't need your reminder."

'"Uncle Xiao, Xiao Yue," Su Nuo felt that her brain was no longer able to think and didn't know what to say. "I, I don't know, I really don't know. Xiao Yue didn't tell me about this."

'"He didn't tell you because he was afraid that you would reject him, right?" Xiao Mu saw that the girl was already very sad, so he could only gently put one hand on Su Nuo's shoulder and patted her. "Su Nuo, I believe that the more Xiao likes you, the more you don't want to get in between you and Xiao Yue because of this. Otherwise, he would be in trouble again."

'"I, I understand. I will, I will talk to Xiao Yue properly. I, I won't, won't make things difficult for him." Su Nuo gradually recovered from her shock and her mind became thinking. "Uncle Xiao, thank you for your support, but I know the importance of it. Don't worry, I will talk to Xiao Yue properly when I return."

"Alright, go back and talk to Xiao Yue about this," Xiao Mu said solemnly. "But remember one thing, as Xiao Yue's elder, I hope he is happy. I have already let Xiao Yue's father down. I can't let him go back to his father's old ways. Do you understand?"

"Understood." The resentment in Su Nuo's heart had also dissipated because of Xiao Mu's words, leaving only her heartache and unwillingness to part with Xiao Yue.

"It's good that we understand," Xiao Mu sat back in his seat. "Let's continue talking about the workers' strike."

'"Madam Xiao, Mr. Xiao, I think we should talk to the worker's representative now and rescue Captain Xiao." Du Ye, who was sitting at the side, said at the right time, "Mrs. Xiao, Mr. Xiao, I think we should talk to the worker's representative now and rescue Captain Xiao."

"My opinion hasn't changed. I personally don't agree to negotiate with the workers," Yue Qian didn't give Du Ye any leeway.

"What about you, Mr. Xiao?" Du Ye held one last glimmer of hope.

"My opinion on this matter is," Xiao Mu paused for a few seconds before saying his final decision. "You guys first think of a way to save Xiao Yue under the condition of guaranteeing the minimum casualties. If it really doesn't work, then we'll find a way to negotiate with the workers. No matter what, we have to ensure that Xiao Yue is rescued unharmed."

'"Since you said so," Su Nuo finally adjusted her mood, making herself at least look calm on the surface, "then we have nothing to say. We will think of a way to save Xiao Yue as soon as possible, don't worry."

Xiao Mu nodded, "Then I'll have to trouble the captains. When this matter is over, I will definitely invite everyone to our Xiao Clan. At that time, I will thank everyone for taking care of and helping us, Xiao Yue."

'"Mr. Xiao, you're welcome. This is what we should do," Du Ye immediately replied politely. "Then, Mr. Xiao, let's go back to the team. We'll contact you if there's anything else."

After saying that, the three of them left the Xiao Clan.

The three of them didn't say anything along the way. Zhen Ni was angry because the Xiao Clan did not cooperate, but Su Nuo's mind still flashed with the words of Yue Qian and Xiao Mu. She did not even know how she had left the Xiao Clan.

Half of Du Ye's anger was due to the lack of cooperation from the Xiao Clan, the other half was worried about Su Nuo being hit so hard. Moreover, there was no guarantee that the next plan would succeed. Du Ye had never been so worried as today.

This was the first time Du Ye had faced Xiao Yue's mother head-on, and he felt that this person was not generally unlikeable. Only now did Du Ye understand why Xiao Yue didn't like to go home. If his mother was like this, he wouldn't be willing to go home, right?

The three men who failed to negotiate quickly returned to a small armoured vehicle belonging to the coalition, only a few blocks from the factory. Su Nuo, who had been silent all along the way, suddenly opened her mouth after getting on the car. This sentence left everyone in the car speechless.

"We're not going to save Xiao Yue, let's retreat," Su Nuo lowered her head expressionlessly.

"What?" Du Ye couldn't believe his ears, "What are you talking about! That's not how we planned it!"

'"Let's go back to the team. If this goes on, both sides will be injured. Let the workers handle this on their own," Su Nuo said in a cold and powerless tone. "We'd better leave it alone. Perhaps it's better this way."

"How can you say that!" Zhen Ni also didn't believe that Su Nuo would actually say such words. "Didn't you try your best to save Xiao Yue when you were in the Xiao Clan? How could you say such words now?"

"Even Xiao Yue's closest people don't want to save him, what else can we do?" Su Nuo raised her head and stared coldly at Zhen Ni.

Zhen Ni was stared at by Su Nuo's eyes and didn't know what to say, so she subconsciously blurted out a sentence, "Then let's directly rush in and get Xiao Yue out!"

"This won't do," Du Ye immediately stopped Zhen Ni's suggestion.

"That's right," Su Nuo continued Du Ye. "If we rush in like this, not only will people on both sides be injured or even killed, but also Xiao Yue, who is the hostage, will be injured. Do you understand?"

"I know, but I can't retreat just because of this. What should Xiao Yue do?" Jenny felt that no matter what she did, she could not retreat.

Du Ye was also very worried about Xiao Yue's safety, but he always felt that Su Nuo's words were meaningful, so he echoed Su Nuo's words, wanting to see what Su Nuo wanted to do.
