Chapter 247: Chapter 247 The Blind Date
“Little sister, does your big brother have a partner?” The landlady was still quite young, and ng Xinian’s masculine vibe was so strong that she felt a bit embarrassed to speak with him directly, so she kept using Chiang Xiao as a go-between.
Though the question was ant for ng Xinian, she asked Chiang Xiao instead.
Does Tyrant ng have a partner?
Chiang Xiao looked bewildered. How would she know?
She turned to ng Xinian.
ng Xinian had a serious face and shook his head.
His family had always wanted to use his marriage as a business transaction, hoping to marry him off to so woman. Heh, for the sake of this matter, those people had abandoned all sha, trying every trick in the book.
The year before last, in his frustration, he had declared to all the ladies of the Capital, the daughters of prestigious families, that he wouldn’t marry any of them. For life, he’d rather go to the countryside and find a village girl to marry!
Not to ntion, if this Kitten had an older sister, she would be quite suitable.
The landlady was still waiting for Chiang Xiao’s response, her eager and expectant eyes making it hard for Chiang Xiao to bear.
“He said he doesn’t have a partner,” Chiang Xiao said helplessly.
“Really?!” The landlady was thrilled; she swiftly wiped her hands on her apron and quickly turned away. Soon, she brought back a plate of stead buns and a bowl of soy milk, placing them in front of ng Xinian.
“Young man, this is for you. Eat up, eat up!” And she scurried away again.
Chiang Xiao: “…”
Landlady, are you even aware of how excited you get seeing a handso guy? Does your husband know?
Then she saw ng Xinian pick up a bun with his chopsticks, take a bite, and the rich, savory juice overflowed, the aroma tantalizing.
Chiang Xiao: “…”
Landlady, being such a sucker for good looks, you’re this generous to a handso guy, offering him four at buns just like that. Does your man know that?!
Who would have thought, it’s a world where looks matter now.
She looked at ng Xinian sowhat resentfully.
ng Xinian felt like laughing under her disapproving gaze, and pushed the remaining three at buns towards her. “Eat.”
“ng Xinian, have you never heard of not taking handouts?”
“What are you thinking? I’ll pay later.”
Does he look like the sort of person who just eats whatever he’s given?
Besides, he’s a Supervisor Guard.
All of a sudden, Chiang Xiao didn’t hesitate to push the plain bun in front of him and picked up a at bun to take a big bite. Mmm, it was sheer happiness!
Was the girl implying that she’d trade a vegetable bun for his at bun?
Looking at the vegetarian bun she pushed in front of him, ng Xinian couldn’t help but find it funny. But after scarfing down the at bun in three or four bites, he still picked up the plain bun.
As they ate the buns and drank soy milk, there was a sense of peacefulness as if ti stood still.
At that mont, a bun and a bowl of soy milk symbolized happiness.
“Why are you in town? Don’t you have school?”
Only after two buns had settled in his stomach did ng Xinian ask.
Chiang Xiao said, “I took a few days off for so personal matters.” She didn’t plan to tell him about the ss at ho. That would sound too much like complaining.
And with Zhao Xin around yesterday, he probably knew what was going on. With Zhao Xin’s blabbermouth, he would surely tell ng Xinian when they t. Why bother repeating it herself?
ng Xinian gave her a glance but didn’t inquire further.
“Where are you staying? I’ll give you a ride back later.”
Chiang Xiao was about to decline when she saw the breakfast shop owner dragging in a young lady who seed sowhat reluctant.
“Oh, sister, I told you there’s no need for this. It’s going to be so awkward…” Before she could finish her sentence, she caught sight of ng Xinian sitting there.
The rest of her words got stuck in her throat and she couldn’t say another word.
