Thatâs right, she had âSpaceâ and âMagic Brush,â and if there were someone around her day and night, it would be difficult to keep such secrets. If their partner learned that she possessed Exotic Treasures, who could guarantee that human nature wouldnât change?
Perhaps she was more suited to a single life in her lifetime.
âWhat are you thinking about?â
Meng Xinian furrowed his brows, not liking the sudden quiet that had taken over her eyes. He preferred her previous demeanor, which seemed very lively and engaging.
Now, she seemed to be keeping others at a distance of a thousand miles.
âNothing much, just thinking about how to get into the library of M City University.â Chiang Xiao immediately changed the subject.
Even though Meng Xinian felt she might be thinking about something else, no matter how clever he was, he would never guess what was on Chiang Xiaoâs mind. When she diverted the conversation, he did not press further.
âYou want to go to the library of M City University?â He was quite surprised.
For someone her age, shouldnât the bookstores outside satisfy her reading desires? Yet she wanted to visit that famous library?
He knew about M City Universityâs libraryâits collection size and the variety and value of the books drew much admiration.
âYes. I just donât know how to get in. I want to look up some information.â This was her main purpose for coming to City M, even selling paintings was secondary.
Meng Xinian smiled slightly, âThatâs easy, Iâll take you there after we eat.â
He also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He had been wondering where to take her, and unexpectedly, the young lady wanted to go to the library to read booksâa matter in which he could be of help.
âReally? You can take me there?â
âYes. I have a friend in M City University.â
âWow, Tyrant Meng, you are somewhat useful after all!â Chiang Xiao blurted out in surprise.
Meng Xinianâs smile froze at the corner of his mouth as he narrowed his eyes dangerously at her, âTyrant Meng? Hmm?â
Without her mention, he would have forgotten that his nickname originated from her, and now it had spread throughout the alliance. He really didnât understand how he was tyrannical or bullying.
Also, what did she mean by saying he was still somewhat useful?
Was he, in her eyes, someone who was utterly useless up until now?
A fire began to burn in Meng Xinianâs chest again.
Was he really that bad?
âBrother Xinian, the food is here, the food is here.â At that moment, Chiang Xiao was incredibly grateful for the server bringing the dishesâit came at just the right time.
But Meng Xinian didnât plan to let her off that easily.
After the meal, once the server had cleared the table, he glanced at someone who looked quite satisfied and began to settle the score.
âChiang Xiaoxiao, do you have anything youâd like to say to me?â
Chiang Xiao felt the hairs on her back stand up.
Danger.
âNot at all, whatâs there to say? Letâs go out, we still need to find a guesthouse.â She said, standing up.
Meng Xinian raised an eyebrow, âSit down. Rest a bit after eating.â
Chiang Xiao had no choice but to sit down again.
âI have a few questions that have been baffling to me. I thought about writing, but felt that might not clarify things, so I wanted to wait until we met to ask. Now that weâve brought it up, why donât you explain them to me?â
âWhat questions?â Knowing she couldnât avoid it, Chiang Xiao sat up straight and looked at him.
Meng Xinian felt an urge to laugh, but restrained himself.
He thought she looked like a student about to take an exam, very honest.
But he didnât dare take this young lady for someone naive, she was rather shrewd. If he wasnât careful, he would definitely be swayed by her.
âFirst question, do you really think Iâm like a tyrant?â
