He’ll definitely drag you to the cafeteria for a meal, and then you’ll become the center of attention like a national treasure.”

The thought of that scene gave Chiang Xiao a shiver.

She didn’t want to go.

She was going to eat in the city.

“Let’s go quickly, we can meet another time.”

Sorry about that, Zhao Xin!

Zhao Xin ran over breathlessly, only to be greeted by the car’s exhaust as it pulled away.

“Commander!” He gasped, hands on his knees, unable to straighten up, exhausted from running. “Was that the sister-in-law who came?”

He had heard that a beautiful girl had come to see the commander and had rushed over immediately, only to miss her.

But it had to be Chiang Xiao! Otherwise, why would the commander take time off to go out with a girl!

Yet, the commander had whisked the sister-in-law away so quickly, and without including him—how could he be so inconsiderate!

The inconsiderate Meng Xinian, however, was already enjoying a novel experience.

Sitting next to him was his girl, hmm, his own.

No grandparents or uncles and aunts around, just a teammate driving the car, pretending he wasn’t there. Once they reached the city and got out of the car, it would be just the two of them.

Being alone with Chiang Xiao in a place where nobody knew them, not in Peace Town, felt quite novel to him. His mind was busy making plans, deciding where to take her to eat and where to go after the meal.

Suddenly, he realized a problem.

He wasn’t that familiar with the city either!

In the past, he was just there for business. He had no interest in shopping—arrive by car, handle the business, and leave by car.

He knew nothing about the fun places in the city or the places a young girl might like to visit!

And he still wanted to take her out?

What if Chiang Xiao wasn’t satisfied?

Meng Xinian coughed and looked at the back of the driver’s head, coming up with an idea.

So, he said directly to the teammate, “Xiao Sun, later just take us to a restaurant and drop us off. That’s all.”

Yes, Xiao Sun would know where the restaurant was, so that first destination didn’t require his effort—problem solved.

Chiang Xiao, however, felt a bit uneasy—it was mealtime. “Shouldn’t we invite him to dine with us?” she whispered to him after gently touching his arm.

“No need, Xiao Sun has tasks to attend to, and there will be food for him there,” Meng Xinian explained. “This counts as a mission for him; he needs to hurry back to the base.”

Chiang Xiao nodded in understanding.

Each troop has its discipline, and it wasn’t her place to comment casually.

Seeing her so well-behaved, Meng Xinian’s hand itched again, and he pinched her cheek, liking the feel of it.

“After we finish eating, we’ll find a guesthouse to drop off our belongings, and then I’ll take you out.”

Chiang Xiao swatted his hand away and glared at him, “Can you speak without touching?” Did he really think of her as a little kid? Always pinching her cheek like that.

The essence of a person’s soul manifests itself as their temperament and charm, not confined by their physical form.

That was exactly what Chiang Xiao was demonstrating.

Her appearance might be that of a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl, but the subtle charm revealed in the glance of her eye was entirely that of a mature woman—the perfect blend of cuteness, sincerity, and allure.
