The footsteps of several people gradually approached.
Xiaolan stood under the tree, Jasmine's back was turned to them, and she scratched on the tree hard.
"Second girl, Master Qiuyuan is here, what are you doing..."
Qiuyuan stopped Lao Liu with a smile and said softly, "No need, Mr. Liu, you can go about your business first. Miss Xia Meng is an acquaintance of mine. I will talk to her about some trivial matters."
Xiaolan turned around and saw the older man leading Lao Liu away from the old tree quickly. This man should be Master Fengmu. Master Fengmu had gray hair, strong energy, elegant and tall posture, and very neat steps.
Then, Xiaolan's eyes fell on Qiuyuan.
Humph, no wonder, he is a pretty boy.
For some reason, this idea suddenly appeared in Xiaolan's mind.
In addition to her fair and delicate complexion, Qiuyuan has three-dimensional facial features, a straight and slender figure, a pair of amber pupils staring directly at Jasmine, and a black robe tied tightly around her waist, showing off her elegant demeanor, with a slight ambiguity in her peach blossom eyes.
It is indeed a look that girls like very much.
But when she thought of this glamorous person's wardrobe, which was like a trash can that had been stored for several years, Xiaolan even scorned this beauty.
Although he still had this identity not long ago, this did not affect Xiaolan's complaints at all.
"Miss Xia Meng, I've been waiting for a long time."
Long wait?
Did the two of them make an appointment?
Xiaolan changed her posture to watch the excitement, wondering if this Qiu Yuan could not see herself.
"Soon," Jasmine turned around awkwardly and smiled stiffly, "I just arrived too."
This acting is not good, Xiao Lan muttered in her heart, Jasmine’s attitude was as if the person standing opposite her was a delivery boy who was desperately apologizing for late delivery.
"I didn't expect anything to happen in the village, so I asked the beautiful woman to wait."
Qiuyuan probably showed the most charming smile, and as he spoke, he reached out to take Jasmine's hand.
Jasmine pretended to raise her hand casually and scratched her hair, avoiding the movement of asking for help.
"Oh, it's okay," Jasmine laughed exaggeratedly, "You're too polite, haha."
Xiaolan felt a little pain in her heart.
Was this the person you played last time?
Isn’t this just a gangster? A good-looking gangster is no longer a gangster?
A mysterious smile flashed across Qiuyuan's face, he retracted his hand that had failed, and the next second, he quickly reached out and hugged Jasmine's waist.
this!
Xiaolan suddenly stood up straight.
Do you really think I don’t exist?!
Jasmine was shocked on the spot, her limbs were stiff, and she even forgot to resist when she was pulled into Qiuyuan's arms.
"Let go of my sister!"
Xiaolan glared angrily and bumped into it.
"ah!"
Qiuyuan let go, and Jasmine took the opportunity to break free from his arms. Qiuyuan covered his waist with his other hand and looked at Xiaolan with a shocked face.
Xiaolan was still confused. She hit his shoulder. Why was he covering his waist?
Could it be because the third girl is only as high as his waist?
"Qiu...Miss Qiu Meng?" Qiuyuan calmed down and looked at Xiaolan with a bit of surprise and weird excitement in his eyes, "When did Miss Qiu Meng show up?"
Xiaolan was just about to open her mouth and say that you didn't see such a big person standing there, but then she thought about it, she was indeed not that big, and it would be hard to find her if she hid next to a big tree.
"What are you going to do! Stinky gangster! Humph!" Xiaolan yelled at the top of her voice, grabbing Jasmine behind her.
"Miss Xia Meng and I are in love, why, Xiao Qiu Meng won't agree?" Qiu Yuan knelt down next to Xiao Lan on one knee and said with a gentle smile, "Sister will be unhappy."
You are too...
Xiaolan resisted the urge to mock Qiu Yuan, pointed at Jasmine behind her and said, "Sister, you will be happy only if you are with me!"
Is it an illusion? After hearing this, Qiuyuan Danfeng's peach blossom eyes seemed to become brighter.
"Xiao Qiu Meng is an extraordinary child."
Qiuyuan did not get angry because Xiaolan ruined the good thing between the two of them, but acted like he was very interested in Xiaolan.
Jasmine is trying hard to overcome the fists dominated by instinct and try her best to show the shyness and weakness required for her character.
Qiuyuan said, and touched Xiaolan's cheek with his right hand. Before Xiaolan could dodge, the hand quickly reached for the back of his neck.
Suddenly cool down.
Xiaolan didn't know if it was a subconscious resistance from her body or something else. She disappeared in an instant, and when she reacted again, her hand had been hit hard by Jasmine.
"Crack!"
There was a loud sound, and Xiaolan could hear Jasmine's suppressed anger.
Qiu Yuan was slapped by the second girl who "liked him" and looked at Jasmine in shock.
Jasmine opened her mouth and pulled out a smile that she might have thought was shy but was actually very fake, "Please... why are you touching my sister? She is still a child."
Well……
Xiaolan didn't originally think about it.
Looking at Jasmine, Qiuyuan's smile changed, and the corners of his lips tilted slightly to one side. He stood up and said to Jasmine, "Xia Meng, is he even jealous of his sister? Qiu Meng likes you very much."
If the two of them hadn't known it well, if it were the real Xia Meng and Qiu Meng, they might have been provoked by this rhetoric.
Jasmine choked suddenly.
The indifferent nature only appeared on his face for a moment, and the standard smile returned to the corner of his mouth.
Qiuyuan stretched out the same hand, as if to touch Jasmine's face, but Jasmine ducked away.
Xiaolan looked at Jasmine, has she given up pretending?
Qiu Yuan was unhappy with the two sisters, but he was not unhappy at all. He nodded slightly to them, turned around and left, heading towards the old house.
Jasmine frowned and stared at Qiuyuan's back.
Xiaolan stuttered and said, "Jasmine...you...you can't really..."
"What are you thinking about?" Jasmine came back to her senses and said slightly sullenly, "There is something strange about Qiu Yuan."
Hearing this, Xiaolan hurried closer and said, "I think so too. How do you feel specifically?"
"The eyes," Jasmine raised her chin, "and the smile. His reaction... is wrong. He must have a secret."
Xiaolan slapped her thigh, "If I had known, I would have investigated myself carefully last time."
Jasmine nodded, "When we used their identities, the villagers' attitude towards us was very strange. Now it seems that it is because the gap between us and them is too big."
"You said -" Xiao Lan came up with an idea, "could Qiu Yuan be the one who killed the village chief..."
Jasmine also thought of this, "If it is a person with supernatural powers, then it can be explained that the village chief was disguised as a suicide, and they can also destroy the evidence during the inspection."
"We didn't destroy the evidence last time, so he probably didn't have such an intention," Xiaolan waved her hand, "But there is no motive or evidence, so we can't lie. Let's go to the village chief's house first."
"Will they let us in?"
"Oh, why don't you sneak in first and then pretend to be stupid if you get caught?"
Jasmine looked at Xiaolan strangely, "Why do you seem to be so skilled?"
"No," Xiaolan was quite proud and added, "Talent."
