Chapter 1299: Chapter 1300: Worship Him

"Mm, is there a third?"

"Third, assuming that Chen Qi is really Chen Qi, how did it happen that she was just so coincidentally in the same country, at the same familiar school as Xu Yiqiu?"

Chiang Xiao indeed felt there were too many coincidences, so many that she found them somewhat incredible.

And some coincidences couldn’t even be called coincidences, rather they should be viewed as points of suspicion.

"Mm, I’ve been thinking the same things." Meng Xinian wanted to ruffle her hair but stopped when he realized his hands were dirty. He couldn’t resist touching her though, so he leaned in closely and pecked her on the lips, "It’s all greasy anyway."

There were times he simply couldn’t resist touching her, wanting physical contact with her.

Chiang Xiao leaned on his shoulder and let out a soft laugh before adding, "Also, Xu Yiqiu seems very interested in Chen Yin. Of course, after seeing you, she seemed pretty interested in you too."

Meng Xinian frowned, saying, "Stay away from this woman, don’t learn from her. I’ve always felt something off about her. When we go back, I will have someone investigate her thoroughly."

Investigate her?

Chiang Xiao sat up straight again, asking in surprise, "What do you find off about her?"

She had always thought Xu Yiqiu was the kind of woman who unconsciously exuded a fatal allure to men, but that seemed like a personal style issue at most. Did it really warrant an investigation?

Meng Xinian said, "Did you notice anything about how Xie Gongxun and Xi Xiaobao treated her, or anything different about her towards those two?"

Now that he mentioned it, Chiang Xiao recalled the earlier scene and suddenly noticed something odd.

Xu Yiqiu would normally emit that seductive charm regardless of who the man was, and in turn, all men would unconsciously be drawn to her, their attention fixed on her.

Yet just before, she had seemed almost invisible to Xie Gongxun and Xi Xiaobao, and the two men did not seem to pay much attention to her.

That was simply illogical!

"Could it be that Xu Yiqiu looks down on those two men, so she has no interest at all?"

"Silly Kitten, you must understand, if a woman is truly releasing her charm unconsciously over the long term, she wouldn’t hold back no matter the status of the man. If she can turn it on and off at will, then it would only mean..."

Chiang Xiao continued, "It means she’s been pretending all along!"

"Mm."

Meng Xinian nodded.

Chiang Xiao fell silent for a moment before she heard him say, "Pretending is one thing, but what really bothers me is that I feel she has a very covert understanding with Xie Gongxun and Xi Xiaobao."

"Understanding?" Chiang Xiao was puzzled again.

"Mm, if you had paid attention to their conversation earlier, you would have noticed that when the three of them spoke, their content and rhythm seemed too in sync and natural, not like strangers or like people who grew up in such different environments."

Chiang Xiao turned to look at him, her eyes practically sparkling.

Why did she think Meng Xinian was so handsome?

She knew he was very perceptive, but she never realized it extended to such a degree!

Meng Xinian continued, "So, I will send someone to investigate her and the two men named Xie and Xi. You be careful too, don’t get too close to her."

"Yes, Officer Meng!" Chiang Xiao immediately jumped to her feet and saluted him.

"Your salute is a bit off..."

Soon, it became Officer Meng teaching a young girl how to salute properly.

And not long after, it turned into his own feast of senses.
