Chapter 561: Chapter 562: Did He Acknowledge Another Brother (Alliance Leader +14)

"Hey, are you with the Supervisory Guard Team?"

He sure had a good eye for people!

This young man stood out far too much compared to ordinary people, carrying an air of fiery blood about him. As soon as he opened his mouth and said "comrade", it was estimated that he must be with the Guard Squad.

"Mhm."

"I knew it at first glance. My last name is He, He Jin, I deal in calligraphy and paintings! Come, let’s get acquainted, if you ever want to buy calligraphy or paintings, you can come to me." He Jin extended his hand towards him.

Their hands briefly clasped.

Meng Xinian’s hand was rough with calluses and strong.

He Jin’s hand was slender, without many calluses.

Kuang Yunxian glanced over again, feeling surprised.

He hadn’t expected Meng Xinian, who usually had little interest to chat with anyone, to start a conversation with the young man next to him? What was this about?

Meng Xinian was already holding back a surge of irritation.

"Is this ’Big Master’ also in the business of selling calligraphy and paintings?"

Uncle Lee quickly waved his hands: "I wouldn’t dare claim that. I just enjoy paintings, and I like to buy one or two to hang at home too."

"A collector?"

"Far from a collector, I run a hotel."

In just a few sentences, the two men’s situations were completely uncovered by Meng Xinian. Then, Meng Xinian steered the conversation towards Chiang Xiaoxiao.

"I’m a layman when it comes to paintings. Just now, I heard you all mentioning buying a painting by someone called Xiao Chiang. Is that Xiao Chiang a famous painter?"

He Jin snorted and said, "Dude, let me tell you, you might not even believe it if I told you." He pointed at the Secluded Valley Orchid hanging on the stage, "See that painting? It’s done by Xiao Chiang. Guess what, is Xiao Chiang male or female, old or young?"

Meng Xinian’s gaze fell on the painting, his eyes deep.

It seemed that the painting Chiang Xiao made for him did indeed hold back some of her skill.

"The painting looks quite good, I would guess it’s by a male painter, and he’s not young either."

"Hahaha! That’s what I guessed at first too!" He Jin slapped his thigh and laughed, "But guess what? That painting was done by a little girl!"

"A little girl?"

So does that mean, someone just recognized another XX brother?

Meng Xinian felt an itch in his teeth.

He had had a very tight training schedule these days, and after taking a three-day rest, their entire team went out for a high-altitude training lasting ten days.

After returning and looking for Chiang Xiao again, he found out she hadn’t returned to Peace Town yet.

He went back to the Capital City to take care of some matters and managed to return today, making it a month and a half since he last saw Chiang Xiaoxiao.

The summer vacation was almost over. Was Chiang Xiaoxiao spending the holidays at "relatives’"?

And when had she gotten to know this He Jin?

Realizing that he knew absolutely nothing about Chiang Xiao’s current situation, Meng Xinian’s mood turned even sourer. Especially upon seeing He Jin always flashing a mouthful of white teeth with a smile, he had this urge to pin the boy down to the ground and punch out all his teeth.

Unaware that he had inadvertently angered Meng Xinian, He Jin continued to chatter gleefully, "That’s a really young sister indeed, but she is really pretty! Now, if you ask whether she’s a painter or a famous one at that, I can assure you, she’s not famous in the slightest! If you want to buy her paintings from me, I don’t have them right now. But, after today, it will be different. I reckon this competition seems quite legit, and Xiaoxiao’s painting today will probably win first prize. After today, she’ll have gained some fame."
