"Are you from the Qin Guo?"

Gao Jianli heard this and couldn't help but ask Su Xuan.

Earlier, when facing Jueying, Su Xuan had also exposed Jueying's identity in Luo Wang in one sentence. There was only one possibility for Su Xuan to know these things, and that was that Su Xuan came from the Qin Guo.

"I am indeed from the Qin Guo!"

Su Xuan did not hide this point.

Gao Jianli's gaze tightened, and he was about to express his determination not to go to the Qin Guo.

Su Xuan saw this and said: "Don't be in a hurry to refuse. In fact, the reason I helped you and invited you to go to the Qin Guo is because of an old friend of yours!"

Gao Jianli looked at Su Xuan curiously.

This person had exposed his identity from the beginning, and he still didn't know Su Xuan's name to this day.

Now, Su Xuan even said that the reason he helped him was because of an old friend of his.

He couldn't help but listen intently, perhaps he could know some answers.

"Kuang Xiu!"

After this name fell into Gao Jianli's ears, Gao Jianli's body shook.

Kuang Xiu regarded him as a confidant he had never met, and wasn't he the same?

Although he and Kuang Xiu had never met, they had long communicated through music and both regarded each other as the only person in the world who could understand their zither playing.

Gao Jianli didn't expect that Su Xuan actually knew Kuang Xiu.

After the State of Zhao perished, he had even worried about Kuang Xiu for a while. He didn't expect that Kuang Xiu had actually gone to the Qin Guo.

There was another person who was moved by hearing the name Kuang Xiu.

"You know Mr. Kuang Xiu?"

Gao Jianli heard this voice and couldn't help but turn his head to look, only to see Xuenü looking over curiously.

I don't know when, but Xuenü had actually woken up.

Xuenü, who usually didn't give anyone a good look, couldn't help but have her expression change after hearing the name Kuang Xiu.

Su Xuan ignored Xuenü.

Xuenü raised her eyebrows slightly and asked Su Xuan again: "I'm asking you, do you know Mr. Kuang Xiu?"

Her voice was cold, with a hint of anger.

"Is this how you ask for help?" Su Xuan said calmly.

Xuenü took a deep breath. Thinking of Su Xuan's attitude toward her last night—although she didn't know if Su Xuan was deliberately pretending to be cold or if it was his nature—after hearing the long-lost name Kuang Xiu from Su Xuan's mouth, she couldn't wait to know Mr. Kuang Xiu's current situation.

Since that parting in the State of Zhao, she hadn't heard any news about Mr. Kuang Xiu for a long time.

"I'm sorry, I was wrong!" Xuenü admitted her mistake to Su Xuan.

This made Gao Jianli somewhat surprised; Miss Xuenü would actually take the initiative to admit her mistake to others.

Regarding the matter between Xuenü and Kuang Xiu, he could be considered to know a little bit, but he didn't expect Kuang Xiu to be so important to Xuenü.

"Your attitude in admitting your mistake is not sincere enough; it's too perfunctory!" Su Xuan deliberately picked on Xuenü.

Xuenü heard this, and anger flared up again, then she forcibly suppressed it. She looked at Su Xuan: "How do you want me to admit my mistake to you?"

"First, give me a smile!"

Su Xuan said indifferently: "Who are you showing that cold face to?"

Xuenü snorted coldly. Last night, Su Xuan had angered her time and again, and now, he was even more sharp-tongued. But she tried hard to remind herself not to be angry—who told Su Xuan to know about Mr. Kuang Xiu?

And so, she could only force out some smiles: "I'm sorry, I was wrong!"

"The smile is too stiff, do it again!"

Su Xuan didn't intend to let Xuenü off just like that. Being able to see Xuenü, who in the original work didn't give anyone a good look, in such a posture, he felt it was quite interesting and didn't mind continuing to tease her.

Xuenü was so angry she gritted her teeth. She kept comforting herself not to be angry, and then successively showed some smiles, apologizing to Su Xuan.

Unfortunately, Su Xuan's picking on her didn't end.

Either he said her smile was too fake and not from the heart, or he said her smile was somewhat ugly.

How was her smile ugly?

Gao Jianli, on the side, watching Xuenü curry favor with Su Xuan like this, felt very uncomfortable in his heart.

He had been a zither player in Feixue Pavilion for a long time. To everyone in Feixue Pavilion, Xuenü was a goddess high above. As a result, with Su Xuan, the goddess was like she had descended to the mortal world.

For a piece of news, she even had to curry favor with Su Xuan in every possible way.

After smiling again and apologizing softly to Su Xuan, Xuenü had already made up her mind in her heart.

If Su Xuan continued to pick on her, she would rather not know the news about Mr. Kuang Xiu than show this posture in front of Su Xuan.
