Chapter 198: Chapter 198 Jiang·Deceitful·Li is Verified
Jiang Yan shuddered violently.
Not because he was moved.
But because he was scared.
He wrapped his arms around himself and stepped back half a step, eyeing Jiang Li across from him with suspicion, “What, what are you doing?”
Jiang Li blinked her lashes gently, “Isn’t it you who said you wanted your little sister to be a bit more gentle? Is that not okay?”
Jiang Yan: “…..”
“Just be normal, please. You’re scaring .”
If it weren’t for the fact they were surrounded by a vast open space and people nearby, he would seriously suspect that this girl was about to murder him the next second.
It was too abnormal!
Jiang Li, however, casually withdrew her gaze.
“Fine then, I thought since you were doing pretty well today, I might give you a bit of a treat, but since you don’t want it, never mind.”
Jiang Yan wavered.
If he kept searching aimlessly like this, who knew when he would find the Task Points.
Tomorrow was settlent day, and he certainly didn’t want to wait until the end to be the very last and forced to stay in this godforsaken place.
Jiang Yan tried to compose himself, “Would you really be that kind?”
Jiang Li didn’t answer, but Wen Jiaojiao beside him got a bit anxious.
“Lili, why are you being so nice to him? We discovered this Task Point first, why should we let him have it?”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yan wasn’t pleased, “It was clearly discovered by both of us together. What’s wrong with Jiang Li letting it to ? I am her brother, it’s only right and natural for a sister to honor her brother!”
Saying so, he pushed past the two and approached the old man, deliberately rolling up his sleeves to show off his muscular arms.
“Old man, I am a guy, strong, this job is perfect for .”
The old man squinted his eyes, surveyed him seriously for a mont, and showed a satisfied expression, “Young man, are you sure you want to do it?”
“Sure!”
“Alright then, this is for you to take care of!”
Having said that, the old man handed over the small cart to him.
The mont he took over, Jiang Yan weighed it in his hands before scoffing dismissively, “This is so easy? It seems like I’ve won already today.”
Wen Jiaojiao pouted in frustration.
“Lili, look at him, I really want to beat him up! Gets a bargain and still acts cute!”
Hearing this, Jiang Yan beca even more smug.
However, Jiang Li patted Wen Jiaojiao’s shoulder to calm her down and then looked at Jiang Yan.
“You start with this task first, we’ll go check out the front.”
“Go go.”
Jiang Li took Wen Jiaojiao and walked away.
Even though Wen Jiaojiao was soothed by Jiang Li, she still couldn’t swallow her pride.
“It’s not like you, Lili, to have such a good temper all of a sudden. Aren’t you angry at all about how your brother acted?”
Jiang Li gave her a look, the corners of her mouth turning up in a aningful smile.
“You’re right, I really don’t have a good temper.”
Now it was Wen Jiaojiao’s turn to be puzzled, “What do you an?”
She then noticed sothing was amiss.
“Isn’t this the path back? Why are we going around this way?”
Jiang Li withdrew his gaze, staring straight ahead.
“Because that old man is not the executor of the task at all.”
“What???” Wen Jiaojiao froze in place, “What do you an? That old man wasn’t arranged by the show crew? How is that possible?”
“Because I’ve calculated it, there are no Task Points anywhere near here.” Jiang Li said imperturbably, “That old man accepted help so naturally just because of his nature. I’ve observed his facial features, and this person has low-set eyebrows and eyes with a mouth shaped like the number three, which signifies a greedy person—put plainly, soone who likes to take advantage of small benefits. As we provided help for free, of course he was happy to accept.”
Having co to her senses, Wen Jiaojiao then stood on the ridge and burst out laughing.
“Pfft hahahahaha, I’m dying of laughter hahaha.”
“It’s not Jiang Li.” She wiped away the tear that had erged from laughing, “You’re so bad… I really like it.”
Jiang·Deceitful·Li was confird.
[I couldn’t hold back either, I really thought our young master was going to have a mont of enlightennt, but it turns out he got tricked hahaha.]
[For such a regrettable and heartbreaking situation, all I can say is… Sister Li did a beautiful job!]
[I’m cracking up, folks. Jiang Yan still hasn’t realized the gravity of the situation and is happily transporting grain for the old man.]
After learning the truth, Wen Jiaojiao’s mood instantly improved, and she recklessly followed Jiang Li back to the village.
Elsewhere, Su Yinwan, according to a slip of paper secretly given to her by a staff mber, found a Task Point in the village with the highest good score.
It was an exceedingly ordinary household.
The houses were all built with green tiles, with floors mounted high on wooden stilts, much like stilted buildings.
Sister-in-law Lan, the task person ntioned by the staff, was squatting by a stream in front of the stilted building, beating laundry.
She was dressed in the local ethnic clothes, with shiny silver ornants in her hair, her cheeks flushed red, and she was securing a baby on her back with a cloth bag.
Su Yinwan approached quietly, pretending to be uninford as she greeted:
“Hello, sister. I’m a guest here for filming a show. Do you know where our crew has set up the Task Points?”
Su Yinwan’s gentle voice instantly captured a wave of goodwill.
[My God, Wenwen’s voice is too pleasant to hear, love it so much.]
[Su Yinwan really is so gentle, way better than that aloof girl next door.]
[I feel Su Yinwan is quite polite, switched to being a fan.]
Hearing the commotion, Sister-in-law Lan stopped what she was doing and looked up.
When she saw the young and beautiful Su Yinwan, she too was chard and quickly wiped her hands and stood up.
“Eh, you’re calling , right? Task Point? Soone claiming to be a director ca to yesterday, said sothing about setting up a task for you. Is that what you’re looking for?”
“Yes, yes.” Su Yinwan nodded, clearly excited, “Sister, what’s the task here, and how many good score points is it?”
[Su Yinwan knows to avoid pitfalls, even asking about the good score in advance.]
[Truly a smart woman, totally love her.]
“Good score…” The woman strained to rember, then took a card out of her pocket, “Is this what you’re talking about?”
The mont Su Yinwan saw the number on the card, her eyes lit up.
30 points?!
Director Sun’s assistant really didn’t lie to her!
She instinctively reached out to take the card, but the woman pulled her hand back.
“I can’t give it to you now. Your director specifically instructed us to hand over the card only after you’ve completed the task and we’re satisfied.”
“Okay, what’s the task?”
Upon hearing this, Sister-in-law Lan’s face turned even redder.
“Ahem, well, my husband and I have been married for five years, and we’ve had four children together. All these years I’ve been busy taking care of the little ones, hardly having any ti for just the two of us.”
“So, I’m entrusting you to take care of the four kids for one day, and the director will arrange for my husband and to go on a date in town.”
