Chapter 1162 - A Useful Sidekick (1/2)
After Jiang Chen obtained all the information he needed, he picked up his teacup and smiled at Xu Tiannan to express his gratitude.
Xu Tiannan gestured back with a smile.
“No worries, this favor is not worth mentioning. If Mr. Jiang needs to know anything else, please let someone pass on the message, I will make the trip down.”
“Thank you.” Jiang Chen nodded.
Usually, at this point, the guest would leave.
However, the old man didn’t have any intention of leaving.
Seeing that Xu Tiannan did not leave, Jiang Chen was somewhat confused.
“Is there anything else?”
“No, nothing else,” Xu Tiannan shook his head, with a sly smile, his eyes looked around inadvertently as if he was searching for something. “You see, it’s getting late.”
Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows in confusion.
Just then, someone knocked on the door.
“Come in.”
A soldier walked in and saluted after he pushed open the door.
“What is it?” Jiang Chen asked casually.
The soldier respectfully said, “Miss Yao asked me to tell you that it is time for your meal.”
Jiang Chen looked at the soldier, then glanced the man with a big smile on his face. He instantly understood the old man’s intention.
So, you want a free meal again?
Jiang Chen looked at the old man, exasperated. However, Xu Tiannan’s smile remained intact, pretending everything was normal.
This old man has such thick skin!
However, when Jiang Chen thought about it, since he already acquired useful information from him, he should return the favor by at least providing him with a meal. Especially since food was not something of value to him.
It’ll count as a means to reinforce their relationship.
So, Jiang Chen looked at the soldier and coughed, “Get the kitchen to add one more pair of chopsticks.”
“Roger.” The soldier saluted and left.
…
Xu Tiannan went to the cafeteria with the soldier and Jiang Chen returned to his barracks.
Outside the kitchen, the meticulous little loli already placed delicious dishes on the table. At this moment, both of her hands were under her chin as she gazed out the window.
When she saw her beloved big brother appearing, Yao Yao jumped down from the chair and ran to the entrance, opening the door for Jiang Chen.
Looking at the little loli that appeared at the door, with a heartfelt smile, he rubbed her soft hair.
“Don’t wait for me, if you are hungry, eat first.”
The little loli embraced the warmth of the big hand. Her lovely eyes were half-closed and her long eyelashes trembled as her cherry-mouth formed into a crest.
After he put on his slippers, Jiang Chen went to the bathroom and washed his hands before sitting at the table with the little loli.
Yao Yao caringly filled his bowl with rice.
Although the meal was less lively compared to before, it still had the same delicious taste.
Yao Yao, gazing at Jiang Chen who was devouring the food, rested her chin against her hands. With a warm smile, she softly asked.
“Does it taste good?”
“It’s amazing!” Jiang Chen smiled and looked at Yao Yao, who hadn’t even moved her chopsticks. “Don’t just look at me, eat.”
“Hehe…” The shy Yao Yao giggled. “Yao Yao can’t help big brother in other places, so Yao Yao can only take care of big brother.”
Her smile was sweet and glowing. It made him want to protect it in his hands; it was so pure that he wanted to stroke his color onto it…
Ahem, the latter half is extra.
Jiang Chen quickly lowered his head.
Whenever he recalled what happened in the bathroom last time and the fact that he almost crossed the line, it gave him a headache. Although Yao Yao’s age is completely fine, her loli appearance always made him feel guilty if he had lucid thoughts…
The faint jasmine fragrance in the air belonged to the girl.
Jiang Chen suddenly had a thought in his heart when he fixed his sight on her bright lips,
Yao Yao has grown up…
