Chapter 93 A Tacit Understanding



Although there were streetlights nearby, they were quite far away, so you could only make out a rough outline.

Even so, Zhao Nianmeng still felt that something was not quite right.

Just as Zhao Nianmeng was still wondering what was going on, Zhou Changgui's expression turned somewhat ugly after hearing Jiang Sheng's voice, but he still reacted quickly and took a step forward.

"Oh, it's Xuehui!" Zhou Changgui smiled at Zhao Xuehui with a look of surprise, and then greeted Zhao Nianmeng and Jiang Sheng: "What a coincidence to see you here."

"It is quite a coincidence."

Before Zhao Xuehui could speak, Jiang Sheng greeted her with a kind smile and said warmly, "I didn't expect that Teacher Zhou's home is so far from here, yet you still managed to come here for a walk. Please be careful on your way back later, as it's getting late."

Zhou Changgui's smile froze for a moment, then he smiled and said, "Mr. Jiang is right. I just had nothing to do after dinner, so I took a walk around here."

"Oh, I see."

Jiang Sheng nodded knowingly, then glanced at Zhao Xuehui beside him: "Second sister, since Teacher Zhou is here, why don't my eldest sister and I excuse ourselves?"

The meaning was already quite clear. Zhao Xuehui felt a little uncomfortable, but she still glared at Jiang Sheng.

"You little rascal, we agreed today was a family gathering of the three of us. Are you deliberately trying to make fun of me?"

"No way."

Jiang Sheng quickly raised his hands in surrender: "I saw that you and my second sister get along well, but my eldest sister and I aren't used to talking about poetry. Aren't you afraid of causing an awkward situation?"

"Not embarrassing at all."

Zhou Changgui quickly spoke up, his smile casual: "I heard from Xuehui before that Mr. Jiang also has his own achievements in poetry. If I have the opportunity sometime, I would really like to discuss poetry with Mr. Jiang."

"That's great!"

Jiang Sheng smiled and readily agreed: "Actually, I'm not particularly good at poetry, I'm just somewhat interested in it."

Zhao Nianmeng, who was standing next to him, could tell at a glance that Jiang Sheng's words had a hidden meaning, and that her younger brother didn't really like Zhou Changgui.

However, she could tell at a glance that her second sister was interested in this Zhou Changgui.

Remembering the things they had discussed before, Zhao Nianmeng took a step forward.

"Xiaosheng, why don't we go home first and let your second sister chat with Teacher Zhou? They're old friends, so let's not bother them."

Although Jiang Sheng was somewhat reluctant, he ultimately did not refuse what his elder sister said.

Although it's unknown what methods Zhou Changgui will use to bewitch his second sister after the two leave.

However, if we continue to prevent the two of them from meeting alone, it will only cause the second sister to become more rebellious.

Rather than letting things fall like this, it would be better to let Second Sister discover Zhou Changgui's true colors herself.

Thinking this, Jiang Sheng nodded: "Since eldest sister has said so, then eldest sister and I will not disturb your conversation any longer. Second sister, you should go back early too."

Zhao Xuehui's pretty face flushed slightly. She hadn't expected her older sister and younger brother to leave her alone with Zhou Changgui, so she wasn't surprised.

Just as he was about to say something, Jiang Sheng gave Zhou Changgui no chance to escape easily.

Looking at the figure who had just been nestled beside Zhou Changgui and was now preparing to leave, Jiang Sheng suddenly seemed to realize something, his eyes widening slightly in confusion.

"But I saw someone next to Teacher Zhou just now. Was that your friend? Why is that person gone now?"

As soon as he said those words, Zhou Changgui felt like cursing.

That kid, he just knows how to bring up the most sensitive topics!

It was so difficult to get Sun Chunli to leave before Jiang Sheng could speak, but this kid has such sharp eyes, he actually spotted the two of them!

Zhao Xuehui was also somewhat puzzled when Jiang Sheng said this.

Was there anyone next to Teacher Zhou just now? I didn't see anyone there.

Jiang Sheng shrugged and pointed to the figure that was about to leave.

"It seems to be this auntie, or maybe she's an older sister. I'm not sure who she is, but she was just talking to Teacher Zhou."

"They were just students' parents, and we only chatted for a few minutes."

Seeing Sun Chunli frozen in place, seemingly frightened, Zhou Changgui quickly spoke up, smiling as he said, "His child's English isn't very good. Since we've run into each other here, I'll trouble you to take good care of him in the future."

"Oh, I see."

Jiang Sheng hadn't originally planned to expose Sun Chunli immediately. In fact, he was just guessing and didn't intend to reveal Zhou Changgui's true colors at this time.

After all, even if Sun Chunli appeared now, he wouldn't have any concrete evidence of the two of them talking and chatting together.

Instead, she might be bitten back by Zhou Changgui. Second Sister still has a soft spot for this scumbag Zhou Changgui, and it might backfire if things turn out the way they do.

Zhao Xuehui watched the figure calmly walk away, and there seemed to be nothing wrong with it. Although she felt that something was not quite right, she did not think too much about it.

“Alright, eldest sister,” Jiang Sheng glanced at Zhao Nianmeng, who looked thoughtful, and took her arm. “Let’s go back first. Anyway, it’s not far from our home. Besides, Teacher Zhou is still here. Second sister will be fine.”

In other words, if anything happens to the second sister, it will all be Zhou Changgui's fault.

Although Zhao Nianmeng was worried, she had no choice but to look away after hearing Jiang Sheng's words.

By this time, he had long forgotten that his arm was still being held by Jiang Sheng. After nodding, he gave Zhao Xuehui a few more instructions, said goodbye to Zhou Changgui, and left with Jiang Sheng.

It wasn't until she left the grove and was on her way home that Zhao Nianmeng realized what had happened.

Looking at the strong arm that was holding her arm, Zhao Nianmeng's pretty face flushed slightly.

"You brat, have you gotten used to causing trouble with your second sister? You still want to take advantage of your eldest sister?"

After being scolded by Zhao Nianmeng, Jiang Sheng realized that he had been holding Zhao Nianmeng's arm the whole time. Now, after being scolded by her, he just grinned and chuckled.

"Oh dear, it was just me linking arms with you. I've always considered you my own sister. Why are you so angry? Do you like me?"

"Who likes you!"

Zhao Nianmeng subconsciously retorted, then looked into the other person's smiling eyes, her heart skipped a beat.

He then coughed lightly, feigning composure, and said, "Alright, all you know how to do is joke around in front of your two older sisters. Hurry up and go home, get ready, and go to sleep."
