""This little girl is certainly something..."
Both Hu Ma and Lady Han were taken aback when they heard Xiang suddenly step forward and say these words.
Hu Ma had previously discussed matters with Burning Blade at length. Their goal was to find a logical, real-world justification, adhering to the rules of this world, that would give Miss Red Wine a reasonable rationale to help him.

Simply put, she didn't like rehearsals.
Therefore, after Burning Blade and Hu Ma had devised a plan, Hu Ma was to approach her openly, in his capacity as a Martial Artist, and straightforwardly request her assistance.
