Xiang Yu had little desire for power; he hesitated for a moment because he wanted to leverage Hongmen's influence to accomplish something for himself.
However, the position of Chief of Hongmen was too high, and attaining it certainly wouldn't be simple. Moreover, it would take a lot of time.
Xiang Yu didn't have time to waste here, so he declined.
After Xiang Yu left, Yuan Huai looked at Hong Jinbao and said, "Since he doesn't agree, just leave it. We'll find someone else."
Having said that, Yuan Huai stood up, ready to leave.
At this point, Hong Jinbao laughed lightly and said, "How can I let someone I have my eyes on run away again?"
Yuan Huai noticed something off in the tone and turned to Hong Jinbao, saying, "Don't do anything rash. Xiang Yu is my brother."
Hong Jinbao smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't do anything rash."
