Nine Star Burden - Chapter 340
Chapter 340: Catching star pets?
It was 19 O’ clock at night when Jiang Xiao barged into The Tiger’s Den alone.
In the afternoon, Jiang Xiao received a text message after charging his mobile phone and turning it on.
However, Jiang Xiao didn’t rush home immediately because the crazy Husky scattered flowers all over the house and even dragged Jiang Xiao out to buy cakes and celebrate at home.
Han Jiangxue was arranged to cook dinner with aunt Zhou. Xia Yan dragged Jiang Xiao out of the door without saying a word and drove to the cake shop that she loved to go to.
Glutton Xia licked her lips as she watched the pastry chef make the chocolate cake on the spot. She really thought that today was her birthday.
Of course, she did have the right to enjoy such treatment.
After all, she was the provincial Star Warrior Top scorer.
Xia Yan came and returned with a fruitful trip. She then had dinner with aunt Zhou, Han Jiangxue, and Jiang Xiao at her home to celebrate.
Jiang Xiao didn’t want to be a killjoy and only spoke to Han Jiangxue after dinner. He then left Xia Yan’s house and took a taxi back to Huayuan estate.
Jiang Xiao’s heart sank as he walked along the main street of his neighborhood.
…
At the familiar location on the main road of the estate, Jiang Xiao saw the black car with the license plate of Jiang A0S686 again.
As expected, it was her!
But, I’m already so familiar with her, so why do I feel so heavy-hearted?
Was it because her aura was too strong? Or was it because she gave others too much pressure? Or perhaps …
Jiang Xiao seemed to have found the key point in his heavy heart.”The mother and son of the GAO family.
Ever since that incident, Jiang Xiao had never seen second last again. He only received a letter from her after he won the championship in the second wasteland reclamation competition.
After the National League, Jiang Xiao and the others created a miracle, but second last disappeared without a trace and never wrote to Jiang Xiao.
Now, she had finally appeared again.
An old friend … Before Jiang Xiao could even finish sighing, the delivery boy, who asked,”are you not full yet?” rode past him on his motorcycle.
Jiang Xiao took a few quick steps and turned around, only to see that the delivery man had parked his motorcycle and was holding a bag of takeaway.
The deliveryman seemed to have realized something too. When he saw Jiang Xiao looking at him, he looked a little wary, seemingly thinking that Jiang Xiao was stealing his food.
Jiang Xiao strode forward and opened the door with the access card.
“Wait! Please wait a moment. ” The deliveryman finally reacted and jogged over.
The two of them walked towards the elevator and Jiang Xiao pressed “.” One of the elevators was on the first floor and the two of them entered it directly.
Jiang Xiao pressed 7 and asked,””Which floor?”
“7th floor,” the delivery man replied.
Jiang Xiao was speechless.
The young man tilted his head and realized that the number 7 had been pressed.
” 70 something?” Jiang Xiao asked.
The delivery man looked at the order and said,”701.”
“I’ve watched this episode,”Jiang Xiao suddenly said.
The delivery man was speechless.
Jiang Xiao grabbed the takeaway bag and opened it to see that it was full of barbecue wrapped in tin foil, and the iron skewers were still exposed.
The deliveryman,”eh? Don’t snatch it. ”
Upon hearing the familiar lines, Jiang Xiao replied without raising his head,””In a while, I will use these kebabs to capture the heart of a lady.”
“And you!” Jiang Xiao suddenly turned around and looked at the deliveryman.”You’ll be worried about whether I’m lying to you. You’ll watch me enter room 701. When I’m hugging my girlfriend affectionately, you’ll feel extremely hurt and you’ll continuously hit the elevator close button.”
The delivery man was speechless.
Jiang Xiao shook his head and sighed.”I advise you to go down directly after you reach the seventh floor.”
The young man rolled his eyes at Jiang Xiao and said,
Stop your nonsense!
Do you just want to steal the take-out?
If I go down and you turn around and enter room 702 with the kebab skewers, what should I do?
“She’s not very beautiful. ” Jiang Xiao sighed softly and said,”but she’s very elegant, especially her Phoenix eyes. You’ll never forget them after seeing them once.”
Ding dong!
When they reached the seventh floor, Jiang Xiao stepped out of the elevator and looked back, only to see that the deliveryman was pressing the door open button while staring at him silently.
Jiang Xiao looked at the deliveryman with a pitiful expression and said,””Are you still so stubborn?”
The mental activity of the deliveryman was … Was there something wrong with this kid’s brain?
“You will regret this.” Jiang Xiao took the bag of holding with his left hand, took out the key with his right hand, and locked the door. However, he suddenly changed his mind and knocked on the door.”She’s my first love, but the hooligan king in our school also likes her. It was after a night self-study session in the third year of high school. I confessed my love to her in front of that hooligan …”
The deliveryman actually listened and added,””Did you get beaten up?”
“At that time, the hooligan chased me down eight streets!” Jiang Xiao chuckled disdainfully and said,’I didn’t dare to go to the store in front of the school to buy crispy noodle snacks during the second half of the third year of high school. Whether it’s at school or on the way home, I’ve always been prepared to escape. ”
The delivery man was relieved.”You’re living together now. Isn’t this a good result?”
Jiang Xiao shook his head and said,””She was convinced by my courage and fell in love with me completely. But it was only after I graduated from high school that I realized that she was not the one I loved.”
“Ah?”
Jiang Xiao sighed gently and said with a look of loneliness in his eyes,””What I love is the feeling of being on the run.”
The delivery man was speechless.
“Crack!” The door to Room 701 opened, and an extremely tall figure appeared in front of the door.
Jiang Xiao looked up at the familiar face and reached out to hand the takeaway bag over.””I’m back. No one can hurt me. ”
The tall figure lowered her head and looked at Jiang Xiao, who seemed to be asking for credit. Her stiff and cold face seemed to have softened a little, and her cold eyes were filled with a sense of relief and admiration.
She took the takeaway with one hand and pressed her other hand on Jiang Xiao’s head, rubbing it gently. She said in a low and hoarse voice,””Well done.”
“I’ll give you an affectionate hug. ” Jiang Xiao replayed the scene from the previous time and said in a muffled voice,”but you have to remember that you can’t keep my heart. I’m a man who’s like the wind.”
Pa! Pa! Pa!
Behind him, the delivery man was frantically pressing the close button.
He had a mental breakdown~
Second last had a strange expression on her face and pressed Jiang Xiao’s head down while leaning back slightly. She said in a hoarse voice,””What?”
“Ah, I’m asking you, how did you get into my house?” Jiang Xiao asked.
“I wanted to enter, so I entered.” Second last then turned around and walked back into the house.
Jiang Xiao looked at her back and was filled with question marks.
It’s over? What kind of explanation was that?
Also, where’s my appreciation? Where’s my reward?
I just won the national championship!
This is an unprecedented and record-breaking event, and you’re going to dismiss me with a “well done”?
Jiang Xiao hurriedly walked in, only to discover that second last was sitting on the sofa in the living room. There were a bunch of fruits and beer on the coffee table, and there was a Chinese drama on the television.
“Can’t you praise me more?”Jiang Xiao asked.
Second last sat on the sofa and looked up at Jiang Xiao. After pondering for a while, she said,””Not bad.”
Jiang Xiao was speechless.
After saying that, second last lowered her head and opened the takeaway. The first thing she took out from the Hot Tin foil was not a lamb skewer, but a grilled cod.
However, the codfish had too much sauce on it, so when she picked it up, the spicy sauce dripped down the tail.
Jiang Xiao walked forward and pushed the trash can under her while asking,””Gao family’s mother …”
Before he could finish his sentence, second last forcefully interrupted him and said in a stiff voice,””Those who enter in violation of the rules at the critical moment will be killed without mercy.”
Jiang Xiao nodded and said,”I’m glad you’re alright.”
Upon hearing this, second last tilted her head and tore a piece of fish before saying softly,””I’m a light-chaser. ”
Jiang Xiao’s eyes lit up and he asked,’this is your credit? You’ve been reinstated?”
However, second last did not comment on Jiang Xiao’s question and instead said,””Captain.”
“Ah?” Jiang Xiao asked,’you’ve been promoted to the captain now? Where’s your original one-tail Captain?”
Second last’s voice was a little hoarse.”He went to another team. The higher-ups ordered me to take over this team’s designation.”
Jiang Xiao asked,’who are your current team members? Were they reliable? Can I keep up with your pace?”
Second last said,”I’m the only one.”
Jiang Xiao was speechless.
Second last threw the fish into the tin foil and pulled out a piece of paper to wipe her fingers.””I can take apprentices now. I have the time and energy.”
“Oh,” Jiang Xiao said.
Second last glanced at Jiang Xiao and said,””How’s your Russian?”
Jiang Xiao looked embarrassed and thought, Russian?
How’s your training going?
You should be asking me how I’ve forgotten …
Looking at Jiang Xiao’s expression, second last knew that he had not completed the task that she had assigned him at all. However, it was understandable. He had been participating in competitions and taking cultural classes throughout the year. He also had to enter the dimensional space to train and train. Time was indeed tight.
Hence, second last didn’t blame Jiang Xiao. Instead, she said,””Since you’ve returned, come with me to White Mountain.”
“White Mountain?” Jiang Xiao was slightly taken aback.”The Baishan mountain range in Da Jiang?”
“Yes.” Second last responded casually and took out a lamb skewer before putting it under her nose and sniffing it.
Jiang Xiao was in a dilemma. The land of Huaxia was very vast and it was a long journey from Beijiang to the border. He asked,””How long?”
“I’m not sure,”second last said.
Jiang Xiao blinked.”You’re going to leave your jurisdiction. Are you not sure how long you’ve taken?”
Second last turned around and glanced at Jiang Xiao.”The Northwest Night Watch Army transferred my tail feather team.”
Transferred your tail feathers team?
Aren’t you the only one in your team? So you’re transferring yourself?
Or could it be … Jiang Xiao frowned slightly and thought of the sincere look in Feng Yi’s eyes when he was in the Chang ‘an City Stadium.
“Why did they transfer you?” Jiang Xiao asked hurriedly.
Second last said,”that’s not something you should know. You just have to follow me to capture the star pet.”
Star pet?
Speaking of which, what kind of star pet do you like?
Why don’t we go to the snowfield and play instead of the Northwest? I’ll be your star pet.
I’m a great healer, okay?
Do you want to give your blessings?
The kind that’s addictive?
