"Is it really ugly?" Jiang Zhiying didn't quite believe it. "You're not lying to me, are you?"

Xiao Lin was dissatisfied: "Why would I lie to you? It's just ugly."

Seeing that he looked unhappy and seemed to really dislike that woman, Jiang Zhiying stopped dwelling on the issue and asked him, "What else? Do you know who she is?"

Xiao Lin shook his head: "I'm not sure yet, but there is definitely something wrong with her!"

Jiang Zhiying rolled her eyes: Isn't this nonsense? If there is no problem, can you have such a look of seeing a ghost when you see Xiao Lin?

She said casually, "Then you should have arranged for a bird to keep watch, right? We'll know the results when they come out."

"Um."

Xiao Lin responded, but he seemed a little indifferent, obviously thinking about something.

Jiang Zhiying didn't ask him either. Anyway, she could guess what Xiao Lin was thinking, which was nothing more than questions about his life experience.

Since that woman's expression looked strange, she was most likely one of the masterminds behind the incident. It was a pity that the technology in this world was too backward and there was no internet.

It was difficult for them to find out the woman's identity.

However, reform and opening up will begin at the end of this year, and by then all aspects will develop rapidly. After a while, they will be able to have internet access.

Oh, it would be great if the network could be set up in advance.

Jiang Zhiying sighed depressedly and ate some grapes to pass the time. As she ate, she asked Xiao Lin, "What else? What else did you find?"

Xiao Lin's expression suddenly changed, as if he wanted to cover up something: "Nothing."

"Are you lying to me?" Jiang Zhiying stared at him suspiciously and asked quickly, "Then tell me, how did you meet that woman? Old Man Xiao took you back because of your background, right? He didn't do anything?"

Xiao Lin: “…”

He really didn't want to say it, not because he wanted to hide it from Jiang Zhiying, but because he felt ashamed to speak up.

Xiao Aiguo was indeed interested in his background, so after taking him home and coaxing him for a few days, he began to take him for a stroll. As they walked, they came to the vicinity of his suspected grandfather's house.

However, the place where his potential grandfather lived was off-limits to outsiders, including Xiao Aiguo. So he just took Xiao Lin for a stroll around the area, hoping for a chance encounter.

In order to avoid arousing the other party's suspicion, Xiao Aiguo pretended to be a fitness person, took him out for a walk early in the morning, and brought him back only after the sun came out.

Xiao Lin actually didn't like it in his heart, but he had no better way, so he could only play along.

Of course, Xiao Lin had spatial abilities and could have teleported directly to the old man's house. However, for some reason, he hadn't done so.

Xiao Lin frowned in confusion, but was too embarrassed to tell Jiang Zhiying for fear that she would laugh at him.

Jiang Zhiying had been secretly observing Xiao Lin, and she found his conflicted look amusing. So she deliberately snorted, "Hmph, forget it if you don't want to talk about it."

After she finished speaking, she began to sigh again. "I thought that after going through so much, we could at least be considered friends. It seems that I was forcing it. Someone like me is not worthy of being your friend. In fact, you have never looked me in the eye, right?"

Xiao Lin was speechless for a moment: "..."

"Can you please stop acting?" Xiao Lin said, unable to bear it any longer. "There's no one else here, you don't have to be like this."

"Who acted?" Jiang Zhiying was ruthlessly exposed by him and pouted unconvincedly, "I just care about you."

Xiao Lin surrendered instantly: "I'll tell you."
