Chapter 646: Chapter 647: You Are Like a Family Elder to Me

Xue Liujin couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

What an amusing pair, why did they feel so fun?

In the room, hearing his laughter, Madam Xue’s anxious heart finally eased a bit, and she said to her daughter, "Xiao Chiang is a good child, isn’t she?"

Chiang Xiao must not blame them anymore, otherwise, why would she keep helping to calm down that furious young man who came knocking?

On the way back, Meng Xinian walked in front with a sour expression, ignoring Chiang Xiao.

Chiang Xiao watched his figure for half the journey, then hurried a few steps to catch up with him and walked shoulder to shoulder.

"What, are you still angry?"

Meng Xinian glanced at her, "I wouldn’t dare to be angry with you, Chiang Xiaoxiao."

Indeed, she was magnanimous, not holding a grudge against the Xue Family, but the anger in his heart still hadn’t quite subsided.

Had he gone to help only to end up causing trouble?

This was an issue that the Xue Family could have attended to and avoided!

It was the Xue Family’s fault in the first place; they should bear some responsibility.

Yet when he went to seek justice, this girl kept deflating his anger.

Of course, he definitely didn’t want to admit that when he previously taught her boxing technique and his fingers had turned her hand purple, it made him feel guilty and a bit angry with himself.

"Tyrant Meng, the way you took me to demand justice, it was like you were my family elder," Chiang Xiao suddenly sighed as she looked at him.

Meng Xinian was stunned for a moment, a family elder?

Chiang Xiao thought he didn’t understand, so she explained further, "Yeah, like my dad."

Meng Xinian’s face darkened in an instant.

"Chiang Xiaoxiao, you’re saying I’m like your dad?"

Was he that old?

Before she said he appeared old, now directly saying he’s like her dad!

You could at least say I resemble your brother, that would be more reasonable!

What does ’like your dad’ mean!

Chiang Xiao, however, didn’t notice his dark face; she kept her head down, watching the ground, and kicked a small stone, "When I was little, I envied those mischievous kids in the village. After they fought, the beaten kid’s parents would take their child to the house of the kid who hit them and seek justice for their own child. Back then, I would always get bullied, but when I got beaten up and told my grandparents, they would just clean my face and wash my hands while their eyes turned red, then tell me, ’Little, we won’t hold grudges against them. Just stay away from them and don’t provoke them, and it’ll be fine.’

Meng Xinian stopped and looked at her.

"No one ever fiercely brought me to their door to seek justice for me, to stand up for me, never. Later on, I didn’t even bother telling when I was bullied."

Remembering her unbearable childhood and her past life, Chiang Xiao felt a sourness in her nose.

Everything Meng Xinian had done before, including giving her Five thousand yuan in one go, had not moved her as much as this moment did, but today, she really felt deeply touched.

"Now I deal with those who bully me by myself, I can become stronger and stronger. I thought I didn’t care about anything anymore," Chiang Xiao continued with a trace of hoarseness in her voice, her head still lowered, "but today I suddenly realized, um, Meng Xinian, I suddenly really sort of like you."

That caught Meng Xinian completely off guard.

He was dumbstruck.

If Chiang Xiao were already a grown girl, he felt that upon hearing such a sentence, he would lift her high up into a hug! Embrace her tightly!

Because that sentence made his heart skip a beat!

He truly had that urge, the urge to hug her tightly and lift her up!
