Chapter 1140: Chapter 1140: The Good Side of Being Simple-Minded
Xia Xin eagerly nodded, “That’s exactly what I an, ancestor, are you going to participate?”
Jiangli didn’t even think about it, “No.”
Xia Xin: “…”
Xia Xin thought Jiangli didn’t hear clearly, so he quickly said, “Ancestor, you might not understand, this is a very important matter for the Xuann line of ChinaCountry. If we lose again, we’ll completely lose face internationally—”
Jiangli looked at him leisurely, “So what?”
So what???
Xia Xin’s mouth twitched, “Ancestor, this concerns the reputation of our entire country…”
Jiangli took a sip of water, “You want to participate?”
Xia Xin t Jiangli’s cold and indifferent gaze, feeling a bit apprehensive, but still nodded bravely, “Yeah.”
Then, he gathered his courage and continued.
“After all, this is a matter concerning the dignity of the entire Xuann and the nation. Even if I’m not skilled enough, I still want to contribute. At least, this way, I won’t feel ashad. Don’t you think so, ancestor?”
Jiangli raised an eyebrow and nodded seriously, “If you want to go, then you go.”
Xia Xin tentatively asked, “Ancestor, you… don’t want to go?”
Jiangli said flatly, “I have other things to deal with.”
Xia Xin was instantly a bit restless, feeling like a thousand ants were crawling across his heart, followed by a stampede of a thousand alpacas.
That was a real emotional rollercoaster.
After looking at Jiangli and pondering for a mont, he made up his mind, “Alright then, I’ll go by myself. I’ll inform Director Xun later.”
Jiangli gave him a glance.
Originally thought that would discourage Xia Xin.
Unexpectedly, even with things at this point, he’d still want to go.
Jiangli frowned slightly, seeing Xia Xin about to leave, sighed impatiently, “Ask Xun Tianhai to send the schedule.”
Xia Xin paused in his steps, turned his head suddenly, staring at Jiangli in surprise.
Jiangli spoke before him, “I’m just looking to see what the competition entails, don’t get too excited just yet.”
Xia Xin blinked rapidly, looking at Jiangli, almost forgetting to breathe.
Jiangli, seeing his dumbfounded expression, kindly reminded, “Those two nostrils of yours can be used for breathing.”
Xia Xin instantly seed to co back to life, jumping up excitedly, “Ancestor, you’re too good! This ans you agree, right?”
Jiangli reminded, “I said I’ll check what’s being contested. If there’s sothing I’m interested in, then I’ll join. Otherwise, forget it.”
“Ancestor, you’re just a softie with a tough exterior. I know it, you definitely agree!”
Xia Xin was grinning from ear to ear, no longer afraid of Jiangli, daring to say anything.
“I’ll go find Director Xun for the schedule right away, ancestor, wait for a mont!”
With those words, he ran out excitedly.
He even lost one of his slippers while rushing out the door.
Jiangli watched his foolish figure, turned away disdainfully.
Thinking, how did I end up with such a silly disciple.
But…
Being silly has its perks.
For a mont there, Jiangli seed to see Tianxuan in Xia Xin.
Too bad, she couldn’t even rember what Tianxuan looked like now.
Jiangli’s expression imdiately beca somber.
She hugged the water cup in her hands, sitting by the bed, her eyes losing focus as if she was daydreaming.
Just then, her phone suddenly beeped, pulling her out of her thoughts.
Jiangli freed a hand to pick up her phone and saw it was a ssage from Fu Shiyan, asking if she was back.
Jiangli held her phone in one hand and sent a voice ssage, “Just got back, does Mr. Fu need sothing from ?”
