Chapter 2111: Chapter 2047: Just a Little Less Attractive Than You
âI really was just following Brother Xinianâs lead,â Chiang Xiao said, winking at Meng Xinian, and asked, âBut, when I just came in, I heard the old lady was introducing a match for Brother Xinian? Is the girl pretty?â
The old lady of the Nian family felt this girl was really quite personable, she even initiated a conversation with her.
She quickly said, âPretty, very pretty! But, just a little less pretty than you, dear, youâre really the prettiest girl Iâve ever seen.â
Chiang Xiao stifled a laugh and said with a regretful face, âNot as pretty as me, huh? Then maybe it wonât work out.â
Old Meng and Meng Chaojun both looked speechlessly at Chiang Xiao, seeing her teasing the old lady of the Nian family, they were both amused and a bit exasperated.
But they didnât dare interrupt Chiang Xiao recklessly.
They both couldnât quite figure out if Chiang Xiao was happy or angry at the moment.
If she was angry, even the whole Meng and Nian families wouldnât be enough to deal with her messiness.
After all, Meng Xinian would undoubtedly side with her without a word.
âOh? Why?â the old lady asked.
âBecause Brother Xinianâs eyes have been spoiled by me, to find a match, he would at least need someone as pretty as I am for him to be interested. If they arenât as pretty as me, how could he even be interested?â
Chiang Xiao raised an eyebrow and shot a sidelong glance at Meng Xinian.
Well, Tyrant Meng, secretly returning to the Meng family, turns out someone is introducing a match for him.
Meng Xinianâs face turned dark, he grabbed her hand, pulled her down, sat her beside him, and slid a hand behind her to wrap around her waist.
In a place where no one could see, his fingers stroked her waist.
Nian Tang had already noticed something was off.
Just how could a neighborâs child be so close to Meng Xinian?
The two of them sat so close together, bodies practically touching.
And Meng Xinian, since she came in, his eyes have been glued to her, that gaze, made anyone who saw it feel overwhelmed.
Just a moment ago he was quite frosty.
âGirl, you really know how to jokeâŠâ
The old lady of the Nian family looked awkward, still thinking Chiang Xiao was just joking, but Nian Tang had already interrupted her, looking at Chiang Xiao with a slightly gloomy expression.
âYouâre Xinianâs fiancĂ©e, right?â
Chiang Xiao smiled, âYou could tell, huh?â
âWhat?â The old ladyâs face changed, âYouâre that village girl?â
âThatâs right, Iâm that poor village girl who climbed up the social ladder, Meng Xinianâs fiancĂ©e.â
As she spoke, she pinched Meng Xinianâs waist, and she didnât use any less force.
Meng Xinian let out a low hiss.
âAttempted husbandicide?â
It really did hurt a bit.
This girl isnât like the average girl, her hand strength is quite considerable too.
Meng Xinian couldnât help but smile bitterly.
âWhatâs this about husband? I thought you wanted a pretty elementary school teacher?â
âDidnât you say yourself? Anyone whoâs less pretty than you, I have no interest in. In this world, thereâs probably no girl prettier than you.â
Meng Xinianâs eyes gleamed with amusement. This girl obviously knew full well and understood that he couldnât possibly go on any dates or find another match, yet she was still acting a little jealous. This showed she was becoming more and more concerned about him, to the point that she wasnât happy hearing about things that couldnât possibly happen.
He didnât think she was too petty at all, instead, he loved seeing her nervous because of him and acting a little peeved.
Chiang Xiao almost couldnât hold back her laughter.
When did this guy become so slick-tongued?
The two of them suddenly ignored the others present, whispering in each otherâs ears, indulging in this seemingly childish but clearly enjoyable banter.
