Chapter 1200: Chapter 1201: Little Rascal

"Did you guys catch a Bearded Man?" she asked, holding back her laughter.

Only if they captured that person would Dai Gang come searching for them in the mountains.

"Yes. When we caught him, he was scared out of his wits," Dai Gang gave Chiang Xiao a thumbs up. "A grown man is not even as brave as Sister-in-law."

Chiang Xiao’s expression remained unchanged.

"True, she has courage, even when a wild boar charged by, she stayed completely calm," Meng Xinian glanced sideways at Chiang Xiao and patted her head.

Chiang Xiao instantly knew where the suspicion lay.

Had she been too calm and collected just now?

Because she had lured those creatures out, she was mentally prepared; although surprised by the tiger, she was only slightly taken aback.

With someone as perceptive as Meng Xinian, any small suspicion was immediately caught.

Chiang Xiao immediately bowed her head towards her fingers.

It was really difficult to not reveal any suspicions in front of this guy.

Meng Xinian looked at her with a smile that was not quite a smile.

Chiang Xiao herself struggled to keep composure, glaring at him somewhat annoyed. "I don’t know anything!"

Meng Xinian chuckled, "Alright, I know. Anyway, there’s still a year and a half until you turn eighteen, Little Scoundrel."

If she had been able to hold it together, he wouldn’t have been so sure that this matter was related to her, but this girl just couldn’t hide anything in front of him.

However, her inability to hide things meant she trusted him, so his heart felt warm.

Chiang Xiao felt rather helpless; she was already thinking about just letting everything break, as she had already accumulated so many suspicions in front of Tyrant Meng, adding one more didn’t matter.

After all, he didn’t force her to talk, nor did he pursue her secrets.

As for turning eighteen, that was still far off.

Even then, she might not need to tell him everything.

When the time came, what if she was still playing the scoundrel?

But what Chiang Xiao didn’t know was that by then, she wouldn’t be able to shirk responsibility at all.

Since the person was caught, and it was already late, Chiang Xiao and Meng Xinian didn’t go back up the mountain to look for herbs.

Of course, before bringing people back, they had already dug up what needed to be dug, and Chiang Xiao had already gone to fetch the medicinal vine.

The harvest of two kinds of medicinal materials today meant they didn’t return empty-handed.

"You go down the mountain with Zhao Xin and the others first; I need to take Dai Gang and his team to check that cave," Meng Xinian patted Chiang Xiao’s head.

He had official duties today; otherwise, he would have accompanied her for dinner.

Chiang Xiao could only nod.

"Then you guys be careful," Chiang Xiao was still a bit worried. "What if you encounter tigers and wild boars again?"

Dai Gang adjusted his gun, "Sister-in-law, our shooting is not bad, don’t worry."

They had many people and many guns, they were not afraid.

Besides, Meng Xinian himself was nearly capable of fighting fierce tigers.

"Just be careful."

"I’ll be careful," Meng Xinian made a gesture.

Dai Gang and the others immediately understood and turned around in unison.

Chiang Xiao was still wondering why they had suddenly turned their backs to her when Meng Xinian’s lips pressed down, pecking her on the lips.

Her face instantly heated up, and she pinched his waist.

In front of so many people!

Meng Xinian smiled, pecking her again on the forehead. "Head back."

He already missed her.

Every time he had to leave, no matter how short the distance, as long as she was not by his side, not in his sight, he missed her.

In this life, he was completely smitten with Chiang Xiaoxiao.
