“I am a village girl, of course I need to farm. And in order to farm,
we need the seeds, can’t young Mister Zhu Xiangyu tell?”
Her answer made the fan in his hand stopped in its action. After a
short pause, he recovered quickly and smiled, “Xiao Xiao is the most beautiful
village girl!”
“You are too nice!” Cheng Xiao Xiao looked straight at him again and
asked, “Is there any other question that I can answer for young Mister Zhu Xiangyu?
If you miss this opportunity, next time you want to ask any questions, I am
going to charge you mystical stones!” Cheng Xiao Xiao had no intention to waste
more time with this master of words, so she asked him directly.
“……”
Her expression remained the same and she looked straight at him. Zhu
Xiangyu saw that she wasn’t joking and was taken aback a little but returned
quickly to his usual gentle self. He then asked, “Since Xiao Xiao said so, I am
going to unleash my curiosity. Xiao Xiao, your family dug up that mystical well
of yours?”
“Yes!” Cheng Xiao Xiao nodded and gave him an one-word response, not
an extra word.
Zhu Xiangyu paused for a second, raised his brows, and asked again,
“Xiao Xiao is a beast tamer, please tell me if you have a trainer?”
“No!”
Another one-word answer!
“What exactly is Xiao Xiao’s weapon? A fan? Or a cane?”
“Both!”
Another one-word answer. Zhu Xiangyu could no longer maintain that
smile of his. Secretly he drew in a breath and asked directly, “Xiao Xiao,
where did all the Cheng’s mystical beasts came from?”
“The mountains!”
“Does the Cheng have any relations with the four top powers?”
“No!”
“The Cheng’s…..”
“…..”
What he should asked, what he shouldn’t asked, he had asked them all.
Even if he knew full well he wouldn’t get an answer for them, he asked them
anyway. These were questions that had occurred to everyone, but wanting to get
an answer from any of the Cheng’s was an impossible task.
Zhu Xiangyu had took this opportunity to asked all of his questions;
but the answers from Cheng Xiao Xiao was none other than frustrating.
He had more questions about the Cheng’s than he had started; nor could
he tell whether those answer given by Cheng Xiao Xiao was true or not. He was
not able to tell.
He had been hanging around the Cheng’s for over half a month. One
could even say he was surveiling the Cheng’s. Yet he failed to notice anything
out of the ordinary. With the exception of the mystical well, he hadn’t notice
anything out of the norm, let it be items or people.
Looking at the now quiet gentleman, Cheng Xiao Xiao smiled, “Any other
questions I can answer for you, Mr. Zhu Xiangyu?”
“….” Looking at the one in front of him with a complicated look, he
shook his head.
What was the point of asking more questions?
She wasn’t going to tell him anything; nobody would give up one’s
secret so easily!
If he really wanted to find out the secret of the Cheng’s, then he
should….
Thinking about this, a shadow casted in his eyes. Another bright smile
on his handsome face and he said, “Does Xiao Xiao like going out for fun? I
know a few fun places. Should we make some plans to go visit them together?”
“No need. I don’t plan on going on another trip anytime soon!”
Cheng Xiao Xiao had returned to her cold self and said nonchalantly,
“If young Mr. Zhu Xiangyu has no other needs for me, I shall excuse myself. You
can leave whenever you are ready. You don’t need to hang out at the Cheng’s
anymore. And there are much at the Cheng’s that need you to guard.”
