Chapter 958: Chapter 959 This is My Partner Chapter 958: Chapter 959 This is My Partner Chiang Xiao also went along.
As soon as she entered, a figure pounced toward her.
âSister, I finally found you!â
Meng Xinian reached out a hand and blocked Ji Chunlai.
âStand properly, and speak nicely!â Meng Xinian sternly reprimanded.
Ji Chunlai was startled by him and instinctively stood at attention. When he got a good look at him, he couldnât help feeling a bit sour, âHey, buddy, youâre quite handsome!â
He still hadnât found a partner yet, and wasnât it because those girls disliked him for not being good-looking?
Really, he was just a little thin, a little short.
The man in front of him was really quite tall.
Ji Chunlai felt like he was a little shrimp who had encountered Prince Dragon.
âPfft.â Chiang Xiao couldnât help but laugh, âHeâs quite handsome, donât tell me youâve taken a fancy to him?â
At her words, both Meng Xinian and Ji Chunlai glared at her and spoke up at the same time.
âI like men, am I sick?!â
âTalk nonsense again and see what happens!â
Chiang Xiao stuck out her tongue.
Meng Xinian flicked her forehead, âStay here, Iâm going to find Director Ye, and Iâll be back soon.â
Chiang Xiao nodded.
Once Meng Xinian walked away, Ji Chunlai couldnât help but ask out of curiosity, âSister, is he your brother?â
âMy fiancĂ©, my partner.â
If it had been before, Chiang Xiao might have simply nodded and said Meng Xinian was her brother, but now she was unwilling to do so.
Ji Chunlai stared at her in astonishment, âHow old are you? Youâre engaged already!â
âYeah, is it strange?â Chiang Xiao said, while taking out two hundred yuan and handing it over. Ji Chunlai initially reached out to take the money, but then hesitated and retracted his hand.
âSister, this money, isnât it too much?â
âYes, two hundred. Although we agreed on one hundred, Guan Town is indeed dangerous, and I heard that the day before yesterday you also helped evacuate the wounded, so, Iâm giving you an extra hundred as compensation.â
To her surprise, Ji Chunlai shook his head, âWhat was agreed is what it is, I still have that much credibility. Besides, I knew the risks in Guan Town, and helping to evacuate the wounded was my own decision, you didnât force me, so I wonât take extra money.â
Chiang Xiao suddenly felt that Ji Chunlai was quite a decent person.
He had his stances, his principles, he loved money, but he also had his own bottom line, not greedy.
She thought about the people in Peace Town and, after a moment of thought, she beckoned Ji Chunlai over to a corner for a talk. Ji Chunlai followed her to the corner with a suspicious look.
âSister, what else do you want?â
âItâs like this, Ji Chunlai, do you want to earn a bit more money?â
Ji Chunlai looked at her as if she were a fool, âSister, isnât that a silly question? Who wouldnât want to earn money? Who wouldnât take it?â
âWhat if this money comes with a bit of danger?â
Ji Chunlai immediately looked at her warily, âLetâs get things straight first, sister, I absolutely wonât do anything illegal, I am a good person!â
Chiang Xiao rolled her eyes, âItâs not illegal!â
âAs long as itâs not illegal, then whatâs the danger?â
âIt involves following a few people; naturally, thereâs danger if they discover you, because Iâm not sure yet who those people are.â
âTail them? So thereâs no danger if Iâm not discovered, right?â
âIf youâre clever and sharp enough, that should do it.â Chiang Xiao nodded.
In fact, Chiang Xiao wasnât even certain whether those people were good or bad. But her instincts werenât great.
And she couldnât possibly stay and watch over Peace Town indefinitely.
