59 I love eating (1/2)

Xuan Li Wei looked at the dead end and smirked ” Move aside.. I am sure that after we dig for a short while, we will find their target..”

” Li Wei, I am suddenly feeling bad for your general..” Xia Lian sighed sadly. Xuan Li Wei almost stumbled on hearing her words. Xia Lian did not notice his actions as she continued speaking while thinking deeply with her gaze locked on the ground below her feet.

” Surely, their target is your general ah! I have a hunch that this passage's exit will be somewhere near the general's tent.. If a general falls, without a strong leader the army will definitely be in a disarray.. I kind of like this idea.. ”

” Little Li, are you really 12 years old?” Xuan Li Wei's pride was hurt badly. Everyone hailed him as a genius when he was 14 years old, but this brat is clearly 12 years old.. So, what should he call her? He really did not know..

” Hehe..” Xia Lian laughed like a rouge ” You are jealous, aren't you?”

” Ho.. ho... I am a genius by birth. So, don't feel so bad..” Xia Lian brushed her hands before Xuan Li Wei as if he is a fly..

Xuan Li Wei's lips twitched on seeing her gleeful image. He turned around silently resuming his work. He started to dig the pathway using his internal energy. He really didn't want to talk to this girl now. She is really making him loose his calm..

” Eh?! Li Wei, why are you so silent..” Xia Lian was bored on seeing him work so seriously.

On seeing that Xuan Li Wei is ignoring her, Xia Lian moved forward and stood by his side.

” Li Wei, Can I help?” Xia Lian was uncomfortable by this deadly silence around them.

” Yes..” Xuan Li Wei replied nonchalantly. He didn't spare even a glance at her. But, secretly he was enjoying on seeing this girl trying to make him talk.

” Just be silent.. It's the best way you can help me.” Xia Lian felt as if she is drenched by a bucket of cold water on hearing his words.
