Chapter 1478: Someone Guessed Her Thoughts

At this moment, Xu Xiaoxiao's patience was pitifully thin.

If Wang Sinian continued to pick fights, she would very likely explode!

It was just that... her shout just now had also been quite lacking in poise.

Thinking that Jiang Chenghao was also watching from the side, Xu Xiaoxiao had to change her attitude and explained gently, "What I meant was, every time you speak, you pull at the skin on your face, and it will hurt."

Wang Sinian, however, followed the flow of the conversation; he didn't speak, merely moving his eyebrows.

But this eyebrow-raising gesture... was brimming with arrogance.

Xu Xiaoxiao turned her head away, not wanting to pay him any more mind.

And even less did she want her mood to be stirred up by this person.

Taking a deep breath, Xu Xiaoxiao tried hard to calm her mood.

Then, as if no one else were around, she began chatting with Jiang Chenghao: "How come you prepared sunburn ointment here?"

"Because the sunlight here is too strong, and the fruit farmers often get sunburned. They don't take it seriously themselves, so I can only prepare it in advance; if they really feel uncomfortable, it's good to be able to soothe it a little."

"So the ointment was prepared by you?"

"Yes, I also prepared other medicines, tools, and essential supplies."

"You really are thoughtful."

"What I can do is quite limited; it's mainly that the fruit farmers here are very hardworking."

Hardworking... that is certain.

But there is also a reward.

Xu Xiaoxiao looked at the fruit hanging from the branches and smiled: "It is precisely because of the hard work that the fruit grown here is exceptionally sweet."

Jiang Chenghao nodded gently, agreeing with Xu Xiaoxiao's words.

And Xu Xiaoxiao's mood also calmed down completely.

While she was chatting just now, she had taken the opportunity to observe Jiang Chenghao.

Whether it was his expression or the tone of his voice, they all pointed to one conclusion: at this moment, Jiang Chenghao was very relaxed.

As expected, only by doing

the things one likes can one truly relax.

Xu Xiaoxiao was very gratified by this discovery.

However, right at this moment, Wang Sinian leaned over and asked, "What are you smiling at?"

Upon hearing this person's voice...

Xu Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes.

Then she turned her head and warned in a low voice: "Didn't I tell you not to talk!"

"You told me not to talk because you were worried I would be in pain, but in reality, it doesn't hurt at all, so..."

"So, do you want me to apply it for you again!?"

This was naked intimidation on Xu Xiaoxiao's part!

But it was very effective.

Upon hearing this, Wang Sinian retracted his neck: "Forget it, I'd better just shut up."

Xu Xiaoxiao gave a light hum, feeling very satisfied with Wang Sinian's choice.

Jiang Chenghao only knew that the two of them were whispering, but he did not understand what they were saying.

However, since they were guests, Jiang Chenghao felt he should entertain them.

He thought for a moment and then said: "You two sit for a while, I'll go get some fruit for you."

Upon hearing this, Xu Xiaoxiao hurriedly said: "Don't bother, I just want to chat with you."

"Preparing fruit is very quick; wait for me to come back, and we can continue chatting."

Jiang Chenghao left with a smile.

When Jiang Chenghao could no longer see her, Xu Xiaoxiao's gaze fell unreservedly upon his back.

And it was at this moment that Xu Xiaoxiao suddenly understood why Liu Xin'ai had been unable to let go of Jiang Chenghao for so many years.

Really, with this kind of demeanor, whoever's 'white moonlight' he became, they would never be able to forget him!

Xu Xiaoxiao was sighing with emotion.

But Wang Sinian, who was beside her, spoke up in a very mood-killing way: "You can't even see his shadow anymore, so stop staring."

The slightly teasing voice instantly shattered all the warmth and romance.

Xu Xiaoxiao also calmed down and warned Wang Sinian: "In a

while, continue to stay quiet!"

Wang Sinian rested his chin on his palm and said nonchalantly: "If you want me to be quiet so badly, then just sew my mouth shut."

Did he think Xu Xiaoxiao didn't want to?

If it weren't for the sake of Elder Wang, she would have done exactly that!

She found it strange; how could an elder as learned and virtuous as Elder Wang have such an unreliable junior?!

If she were saddled with a grandson like this, she would probably want to beat him to death a hundred times a day!!

Xu Xiaoxiao vented her dissatisfaction to her heart's content in her mind.

But in reality, she still had to try to use a calm tone to say to Wang Sinian: "I'm not asking you to do anything difficult, just cooperate!"

"Didn't I just cooperate with you?"

"Cooperate? Your eyes, your little gestures, they are full of provocation! As soon as you find a suitable opportunity, you will definitely stir up trouble!"

This was true; Wang Sinian had indeed been waiting for an opportunity just now.

He even gave Xu Xiaoxiao a thumbs up and praised: "As expected of a psychology expert, your micro-expression analysis is very on point. But I, too, have analyzed a problem."

Xu Xiaoxiao did not care what he could analyze and did not respond at all.

Wang Sinian did not expect a response from her either; after a brief one-second pause, he continued on his own: "You like the person you met today."

This sentence was no less than a thunderclap on flat ground!

Xu Xiaoxiao wanted to refute it, but she was choked by her own saliva first!!

Seeing her coughing until her face turned red, Wang Sinian kindly patted her back and then added: "But he doesn't like you."

This guy...

Xu Xiaoxiao shook off his hand and shouted in exasperation: "He and I are just friends, what nonsense are you spouting!!"

"Whether

it is nonsense or not, you know very well in your heart."

"Of course I know! As for you, don't try to play mind games with a psychology expert, and don't even think about fishing for information from me!"

"This doesn't require me to fish for it; your heart is already in chaos."

Wang Sinian looked at Xu Xiaoxiao with a smile, but his eyes held deep meaning.

That gaze actually made Xu Xiaoxiao feel a bit guilty!

At this moment, she had to admit that this devil-may-care guy was actually a person with deep thoughts.

Sigh, the thing she regretted most today was bringing Wang Sinian along!

If he weren't here, Xu Xiaoxiao would definitely have been able to have a heart-to-heart talk with Jiang Chenghao!

Xu Xiaoxiao was very annoyed.

Just then, Jiang Chenghao returned carrying fruit.

He placed the fruit platter on the stone table and smiled: "This is all freshly picked fruit, have a taste."

Xu Xiaoxiao did not want to show a restless side in front of Jiang Chenghao, so she nodded slightly and used eating to adjust her mood.

But as she ate...

The sweet taste of the fruit directly saved Xu Xiaoxiao from her unhappiness!

She nodded repeatedly and praised: "It's really delicious!"

Seeing Xu Xiaoxiao eating happily, Jiang Chenghao felt very satisfied himself.

Afterwards, he spoke up: "I think I understand a little bit of what you said to me last time."

His words made Xu Xiaoxiao pause, and then her face lit up with joy: "Really?"

Jiang Chenghao nodded: "Doing what you like doesn't necessarily mean you have to obsess over achieving results; as long as it can bring you satisfaction, that's enough."

Xu Xiaoxiao was gratified by Jiang Chenghao's change.

She even revealed a gentle smile: "I can feel that your mood is very calm right now."

"I think I will gradually let go, and the same goes for love."

Xu Xiaoxiao was just about to comment on this sentence when, unexpectedly...
