Chapter 1230: Chapter 1231: The Purpose is You Chapter 1230: Chapter 1231: The Purpose is You âThank you, we wonât go.â
âWhy not go? Youâre on summer break now, and you donât have anything else to do. Besides, your grandparents would like to see your uncle, right?â
âAfter Deng Qingjiang changed his surname, heâs no longer my uncle. Just go back and tell him that he doesnât need to meddle in our family matters anymore.â
âChiang Xiao, what are you talking about? Itâs just a surname, how does that make you not family anymore?â Chen Kaijin was taken aback, âAre you holding a grudge against your uncle and speaking out of anger?â
Chiang Xiao tugged at the corner of her mouth as their food had arrived, and she didnât want to waste any more words with Chen Kaijin and the others.
âSo, you came to Peace Town this time just to take my grandparents to Province X? Is there anything else?â
âWe wanted to take you too, Chiang Xiao. Your uncle has always cared about you. How can he take mom and dad for a visit and leave you behind?â
âOh, thatâs really not necessary. I wonât go, and neither will my grandparents. Please go back to your seats, we are about to eat.â
Chiang Xiao issued an order for them to leave.
Eating in front of them would probably upset her stomach.
Besides, even if she directly asked them why they came, they probably wouldnât tell.
âChiang Xiao, where are mom and dad? Weâve already finished eating. Maybe I should go talk to them.â Chen Kaijin clearly wouldnât give up.
âThey went back to the county town,â Meng Xinian suddenly interjected, âThey are not going to Province X.â
Hearing this, Chiang Xiao knew Meng Xinian also didnât think much of the Chen Sisters, and he had figured something out.
She nodded, âWe wonât go, and we donât have time to entertain you either. Whether you want to stay in Peace Town or go back, thatâs up to you. Can we eat in peace now?â
The Chen Sisters still cared about their image, being in public, so they didnât dare to argue with Chiang Xiao. âThen you eat first, eat first.â They sheepishly stood up and returned to their seats.
Chiang Xiao looked towards Meng Xinian.
âThey are targeting you,â Meng Xinian said softly, his expression serious.
Chiang Xiao felt a chill.
She had also heard it. Although Chen Kaijin had said it was to take Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao to Province X, as soon as she asked, the other side immediately emphasized that they wanted to take her along and couldnât leave her behind.
If it was just about showing filial piety to the parents, naturally, they would focus on them first. Why emphasize taking her?
It was clearly targeted at her.
Could it be that in this life, even without any connection to the treasures of the ancient tomb, they were still interested in her and wanted to take her out?
What was it for this time?
âLetâs eat first. Iâll make a few phone calls after dinner,â Meng Xinian patted her head.
Chen Kaijin and the others had finished eating but hadnât settled the bill and left, obviously waiting for them.
Chiang Xiao and Meng Xinian finished eating and went directly to the second floor.
Ma Jincai thought they were coming to him and was shocked when the two went straight to the window and jumped out, leaving him stunned for a long time.
Chen Kaijin had been waiting outside when they went up, thinking they would come down eventually, but after waiting for half an hour and still seeing no sign of them.
âGo up and look for them,â the driver said sternly.
Chen Sue gritted her teeth, âIâll go. I really donât believe this. Can Chiang Xiao really keep hiding like this?â
But she searched around the second floor and didnât find anyone.
âWhat? Theyâre not there?â The driver was stunned.
âTheyâre really not there! Iâve checked everywhere!â Chen Sue clenched her teeth in frustration.
