"Yes, madam, I understand, it’s my fault."
Jiang Xiao bowed to mander Cui, "Please forgive Jiang Xiao for my moment of urgency."
"Ha!"
mander Cui gave her a look, "A moment of urgency, really? I don’t think you have any real intention to apologize."
Jiang Xiao straightened up, "I’m apologizing for my attitude just now. I shouldn’t have spoken to mander Cui in such an aggressive tone, but," she paused, "every word I said just now was from the heart, and I don’t feel I was wrong."
"..." mander Cui was amused despite being annoyed.
Madam Cui said, "Alright, alright, you are really something. Xiao Jiang wasn’t wrong; Meng Xinian is in Ke Ku Li. If any issues arise, you just need to investigate and deal with them over there. Why did you urgently call Xiao Jiang here without first telling her you’ve already sent people to investigate? Such an accusatory tone and attitude, can you blame Xiao Jiang for being anxious?"
mander Cui: "..."
He wanted to say something, but was there time?
Just as he started to mention Meng Xinian’s issues, trying to probe Jiang Xiao’s attitude and stance, she unleashed a burst of words, overwhelming him instantly without giving him the chance to explain clearly.
Whose fiery temperament is this Little Firecracker taking after?
It seems like Old Master Jiang doesn’t have such a temperament.
Jiang Xiao finally realized.
"mander Cui, have you already sent someone to investigate?"
So, mander Cui didn’t just believe the news at face value and didn’t directly want to accuse Meng Xinian without a reason, nor did he intend to punish him?
Instead, he had already dispatched someone to investigate?
In this case, she might have misunderstood mander Cui?
But can you blame her?
"What, do you think I’m a fool? You think my mind has dulled with age and I would just believe one-sided words?" mander Cui pointed at her in the air, "You girl are remarkable!"
Jiang Xiao felt a bit embarrassed.
"Then why didn’t the mander say anything?"
"When the firecracker is going off, how do I speak?"
Uh, is the firecracker referring to her?
mander Cui sat down again, and Madam Cui also pulled her to sit down, letting out a light sigh, "I heard everything just now. You truly trust that Meng Family child? Really think he’s that good?"
She’s never seen a girl defend a man like this.
Not afraid of being called unreserved, not afraid of being laughed at for not being gentle, just going straight at it, openly listing all the good qualities of her fiancé one by one, feeling wronged and worried for him.
It’s very clear that she has kept everything about Meng Xinian in her heart and in her sight.
Madam Cui and mander Cui both felt that Meng Xinian must have carried good karma from a past life.
Having such a devoted fiancé, what more could he ask for?
"Madam Cui, Brother Xinian may indeed have his flaws, like how he never wants to lose. If someone provokes him, he retaliates without mercy. But as a Supervisor Guard, I believe he’s done nothing to dishonor this identity. For every mission, he pletes them without a hitch."
Jiang Xiao sighed, her eyes a bit red, and said, "Even this time, even if I asked him not to go to Ke Ku Li, he would convince me otherwise because he told me before that Ke Ku Li is very dangerous right now. If he doesn’t go, someone else would have to be sent. He feels that if he goes, he is more assured to e back safely."
