Whenever he tried to give it back, she never accepted and just told him to keep it on him for when he might need it.
Hearing Wang Lili praise Jiang Xiao like that, he felt that Wang Lili was very clear-headed and fair in her assessment.
It wasn't just random flattery because he and Jiang Xiao were family; you could tell she was speaking sincerely.
This improved his impression of this girl even more.
At this moment, Aunt Meng emerged carrying a plate of meat. She glanced around and, noticing that Meng Sheng and Wang Lili were absent, didn't think much of it.
"Our teeth aren't that great inside; this meat is for you young people to eat. Chief Meng asked me to bring it out."
She spoke as she bent down to place the plate of meat on the table, but accidentally tripped over a chair leg and almost fell onto the table.
Xie Landi, who was sitting nearby, quickly stood up and caught her deftly.
"Aunt, be careful."
"Oh, oh, I'm really too careless."
