Chapter 267: Chapter 267: Not Accepting
Chiang Xiao cast a sidelong glance at him, feeling she may have stumbled upon a sliver of the truth.
Tyrant ng either had his heart broken or had been taken advantage of by a woman.
Tsk, tsk, which woman had such capabilities?
“Anyway, whether you marry or not is your business, but I definitely won’t be spending your money. If you’ve got extra cash, go do charity work; I don’t need it.”
Charity work…
After all, she was a proud graduate of the fine arts college and had painted for so many years, living a lifeti longer than them. If she still relied on others’ charity, wouldn’t that make her look utterly useless?
Now that she had such a heaven-defying cheat, she should let others have the opportunity to be supported.
Besides, she genuinely disliked being pitied.
After being reborn, she had sworn that in this lifeti, she would rely on herself to lead her grandparents out of Siyang Village.
Go do charity work…
ng Xinian was left speechless for a while by her remark.
She treated him as if he were doing charity!
ng Xinian took a deep breath.
He really wanted to pinch this kitten’s cheeks purple, but in front of others, especially her relatives, it was out of line to mistreat soone’s granddaughter.
Kitten, just you wait.
ng Xinian gritted his teeth, opened the bag, took out the money, stuffed it back into his pocket, and then tossed the bag into Chiang Xiao’s arms.
“Fine, I’ll take back the money and use it for charity! But I’ve already bought these sweets, and I don’t eat sweets, so if you don’t want them, throw them away!”
His words were tinged with such vehence that Ge Xiaotong and the others couldn’t help but shudder.
Chiang Xiao hugged the bag and glanced at him, muttering under her breath, “Immature brat.” He was the most childish one, telling her to just throw it away if she didn’t want it.
“What did you say?”
“Nothing! I said thank you, Xinian Brother!”
Seeing her accept the items, ng Xinian’s expression finally softened a bit.
He glanced at Chiang Songhai and relaxed his deanor, saying, “Grandpa, Grandma, here’s the thing, Little Little helped
out before, but it might have caused the Alliance team to misunderstand our relationship, they think…” He glanced at Chiang Xiao and continued, “They think Little Little is my little wife. If I clear this misunderstanding up, it will negatively impact , so I ca here this ti to talk to you, hoping you could help
out. Could you please let Little Little act as my fiancée in na for now?”
Ugh, he felt a bit shaless.
Asking her to pretend to be his wife for the sake of his future?
ng Xinian felt his face heat up.
But he didn’t want to ntion the other half of the reason.
For instance, if his enemies found out Chiang Xiao had no connection to him, they would certainly focus on her. If she got involved in that mission for no reason and carried the identity of the savior of the Alliance Officer’s Wife, people with ulterior motives would definitely disrupt her life.
At that ti, not to ntion her taking leave to hunt for money, even people from the Old Chiang Family might be influenced to cause big trouble for her.
At this mont, the best solution was to have her act as his wife, so he could use his status as her fiancé to keep these people and troubles at bay, making sure they wouldn’t reach Peace Town.
That reason, ng Xinian didn’t want to ntion. Also, because he felt that these troubles were actually brought by him.
Of course, it also had to do with Chiang Xiao not following his instructions to stay in and instead running out with dicine. But the causes and consequences were now intertwined. What was the point of finding fault at this ti?
