Chapter 111: Chapter 111 It’s Not Your Fault for Looking Old

Hu Xibing quickly shook his head, "Not me, after I was discharged, I opened this tea shop in town and know Chu Liang too, it wouldn’t be appropriate."

Chiang Xiao then looked at Zhao Xin, "Are you the cousin?"

Zhao Xin waved his hands repeatedly, "Chu Liang is already thirty, I’m only seventeen!"

"So, the person to play the cousin still hasn’t been found?"

Meng Xinian saw that she had asked Hu Xibing and Zhao Xin, but completely ignored him, his eyes unclear with meaning, "Why don’t you ask me?"

Chiang Xiao turned her head to look at him, "You are also only twenty-two or three, right?"

Meng Xinian couldn’t help but grind his teeth.

She had even asked seventeen-year-old Zhao Xin!

And does he look like he’s twenty-two or three?

"I’m twenty this year," Tyrant Meng said expressionlessly.

Chiang Xiao raised her eyebrows in surprise and honestly said, "No worries, looking older isn’t your fault."

Looking... older?!

Even if he really did appear to be twenty-two or three, that wouldn’t count as old, right?

It just means lacking juvenile immaturity!

It just means he seems mature and steady!

He gestured to Hu Xibing, no longer wanting to deal with the young girl.

"Find me a set of old clothes. Xinzi, tell her some things to watch out for."

Watching the commander go inside with Hu Xibing to get disguised, Zhao Xin showed Chiang Xiao a smile and gave her a thumbs-up, "Sister-in-law, you are really awesome, not falling for our commander’s good looks, and you even said he looks old!"

He was going to die laughing.

Chiang Xiao was startled, "What did you call me?"

"Sister-in-law! We should start getting used to it now to avoid any slips later. That’s right, Sister-in-law, later when the three of us go, you can just call me Xinzi, my family has been calling me that since I was young, it’s intimate and familiar."

Oh no.

Although she knew it was a mission, it was fake, but being really called sister-in-law, why did it feel so strange?

At this moment, Chiang Xiao really started to feel a bit uncomfortable.

What on earth is she supposed to call her "husband" later?

Zhao Xin told her some other things to pay attention to on the mission, and before long, the door to the room opened and Meng Xinian came out.

Chiang Xiao felt like this man had suddenly changed into a completely different person!

He was wearing a set of faded deep blue clothes with dirty, worn liberation shoes on his feet, his gaze was gentle, his demeanor simple and honest, and his face even bore a few traces of life’s hardships, completely shedding his previously sharp aura, with the corners of his mouth and eyes slightly downturned, he actually looked like he was in his early thirties.

Because the transformation was so dramatic, Chiang Xiao couldn’t help but walk forward to take a careful look at his face.

But there were no traces of makeup on his face.

It was still the same appearance, so how could the change be so drastic?

Meng Xinian had not expected her to come so close to him, and because of the height difference, she was looking up, her fair and small face completely beneath his gaze.

Her large, clear eyes were full of surprise and curiosity, excessively spirited.

"Ahem."

His voice brought Chiang Xiao back to her senses.

"I’ve been professionally trained, the corners of my eyes and mouth can control minute changes, as long as I droop the eyelids, press down on the corners of the eyes and mouth, add an expression of worry and a bit of tiredness, a person will appear much older," Meng Xinian said indifferently after she stepped back two paces.

Chiang Xiao was very impressed.

Tyrant Meng might be a tyrant, but he sure had some skills.

"My name is Meng Xinian, you can just call me Brother Xinian. Chu Liang’s cousin has the surname An, just remember that. Also, Chu Liang doesn’t know the name of the little cousin-in-law, so you can use your actual nickname, which will help your reaction time and prevent mistakes."
