Chapter 2026 A familiar stranger(2/2)
...
Hearing this, Mr. Jiang was a little confused.
Yeah?
So why is the atmosphere between these two people so strange?
It's not like meeting for the first time.
...
"It's like we had a chance encounter."
Xiao Xiao smiled.
"But it's true that I didn't introduce myself at that time."
"To say we know each other...maybe not appropriate."
...
"oh oh."
Mr. Jiang nodded.
That's right.
"That's a coincidence."
The old man sighed.
Sometimes things in the world are such coincidences.
"Let's stop talking at the door."
"Shall we go in first?"
Mr. Jiang looked at Xiaojie.
Xiaojie's hand holding the door handle suddenly tightened a bit.
After a few seconds, he took a few steps back.
There was a hint of reluctance in his expression.
"Mr. Jiang, please come in."
Young men still respect the senior brothers of the masters whom they want to become apprentices to.
Besides, Mr. Jiang has always been kind to him.
He also comforted him who was frequently rejected by his master.
Although there was a period of time...he deliberately avoided the other party because he didn't like hearing the other party's words to persuade him to give up his apprenticeship.
But later, after the old man stopped saying these words to him, he became more comfortable getting along with the old man.
After all, he is the senior brother of the master he wants to apprentice with, and he is willing to get closer to him.
Maybe with the old man's persuasion, the master would be willing to accept him as his disciple.
...
Looking at Xiao Xiao who followed him, the man twitched his lips.
He really wanted to close the door in front of this person who couldn't read people's faces at all.
But......
He is the person brought by master and senior brother.
He can't do this.
If Mr. Jiang is angry, the master will be even less likely to accept him as his disciple.
...
When Xiao Xiao walked into the house, the man closed his door heavily.
The haunting guy.
Why did he appear again?
Turning around and looking at Xiao Xiao's back, the man's eyes revealed a bit of suspicion.
The last time they met, it can be said that they broke up on bad terms.
Thinking of that time, I was frightened by this person...
The man's face really didn't look better.
...
Mr. Jiang stopped in the living room.
He turned around.
Xiao Xiao's expression didn't change much.
Xiaojie looked suspicious and wary at the same time.
His furrowed brows were almost knotted.
Mr. Jiang's eyes glanced back and forth between the two of them several times.
"Did something happen when you met before?"
"Can you tell the old man?"
...
The man pursed his lips.
He didn't want to talk about such embarrassing things.
He doesn't even want to remember it.
However, as soon as he saw Xiao Xiao, that memory came to mind.
The man slapped his mouth hard.
...
Seeing that the man had no intention of speaking, Xiao Xiao smiled and said, "Mr. Jiang, let me speak."
Xiao Xiao briefly and comprehensively described the events surrounding the last meeting between the two.
The man on the side rolled his eyes but did not interrupt.
Because this person... spoke very objectively.
Although no matter how objective it is, it can't change the fact that he is embarrassing...
...
"So that's what happened..."
Mr. Jiang was stunned.
Then he looked at the man with a wry smile with a hint of amazement on his face, "You are really good at choosing people."
It was actually "stolen" to Master Xiao?!
He knew that if Master Xiao hadn't stopped him, the man would never have ended well.
At least he won't be standing here unscathed like he is now.
This silly boy.
The monsters around little friend Xiao Xiao are not easy to mess with.
Can't he see it?
...
"I didn't steal."
The man is very obsessed with this issue.
"I just took it away."
"Monsters are a source of danger."
"Once discovered, it must be dealt with."
...
These remarks... do have a bit of Mr. Jiang's tone.
