Xun'er, Who Do You Think Is the Most Handsome in the Xiao Clan? (Please Recommend and Bookmark)

The next morning, Xiao Meng packed tools unknown to the Dou Qi Continent, such as wrenches and steel rods, into a bundle and wrapped them up tightly. He did not want Xiao Yan to know that he, too, was a transmigrator.

More precisely, the system did not allow it!

Otherwise, he would be struck by five bolts of lightning!

Xiao Meng had just arrived outside his little side hall when his body suddenly froze, and the corners of his mouth twitched violently.

In front of his door stood a graceful figure with her hands behind her back, her expression icy.

The girl wore a purple dress that outlined her exquisite figure. She possessed an elegant air like a green lotus, and despite her young age, she was already devastatingly beautiful, capable of toppling kingdoms and cities.

Xiao Xun'er!

Seeing the faint dark circles beneath Xiao Xun'er's eyes, Xiao Meng felt slightly dazed. Did this girl really wait here for him all night? He had merely made Xiao Yan waste a trip. Was there really any need to go this far?

How deeply poisoned by love did she have to be to willingly stay up all night just to wait for him over such a trivial matter?

Seeing Xiao Meng with a wok spatula tucked at his waist and a hoe slung over his shoulder, Xiao Xun'er felt a little dizzy. But when she remembered that this bastard had stood her up last night and made her Brother Xiao Yan run for nothing, she could not bring herself to look kindly upon him.

Xiao Meng coughed softly twice and walked forward as though nothing had happened. Smiling, he asked, "Little Sister Xun'er, why have you come to see me so early? Do you need something? If there is anything you need my help with, just say the word. As long as I can do it, even if I must climb mountains of blades or plunge into seas of fire, your Third Brother will not so much as furrow his brow."

Xiao Xun'er: "????"

"Where did Third Brother go last night? Why are you only returning now?" Xiao Xun'er bit her red lip, winding a strand of hair around her right finger as a fierce light flashed in her eyes.

"I went out to plant some vegetables!"

Xiao Meng sighed with a bitter expression. "There are so many mouths in the Xiao Clan to feed, and they all rely on me alone. I have no choice but to work hard."

Xiao Xun'er nearly stumbled to the ground, ruining her ladylike image. She raised a jade-like hand to cover her forehead, truly wanting to spit in Xiao Meng's face. If the Xiao Clan relied on him for food, they would all have starved to death long ago.

This fellow was clearly treating her like an idiot. Fury burned in Xiao Xun'er's heart.

If Xiao Meng knew what she was thinking, he would definitely cry injustice. He was carrying such a big hoe; saying that he had gone out to farm was perfectly logical.

"Third Brother, are you lying to me? Did you really go plant vegetables?" Xiao Xun'er was on the verge of exploding with rage, her fists tightly clenched.

"What kind of thing is that to say, Little Sister Xun'er? Your Third Brother might deceive anyone, but I could never deceive you!"

Xiao Meng stubbornly insisted that he had gone to plant vegetables, refusing to admit he was lying even if beaten to death. He even told her what vegetables he had planted, wearing an innocent, blissful smile as he said, "It will not be long before our Xiao Clan has vegetables to eat again."

"Third Brother, you are still lying! How can you be so shameless? I would not believe you even if you beat me to death. You went out in the middle of the night to plant vegetables?" Xiao Xun'er fumed, practically smoking from her nose and mouth.

"You would not believe it even if I beat you to death? But I have not beaten you yet," Xiao Meng muttered.

"What are you muttering?" Xiao Xun'er glared at Xiao Meng and demanded through gritted teeth.

Xiao Meng had no awareness that a storm was about to descend. He raised his head to look at Xiao Xun'er and asked very seriously, "Xun'er, who do you think is the most handsome in the Xiao Clan?"

Xiao Xun'er was stunned. She instinctively blurted out, "Of course Brother Xiao Yan is the most handsome."

"Pfft!"

Xiao Meng's face darkened, and he nearly spat blood. Although he knew Xiao Xun'er was talking nonsense, he had no proof.

Still, with so many people from the Xiao Clan serving as a comparison, he could not be bothered to prove it. Besides, he believed he was real gold. Once he left the Xiao Clan, the world would see the radiance he gave off.

Faced with Xiao Xun'er and the Xiao Clan's many blind people, Xiao Meng chose forgiveness. Still, he had to write it down in his little notebook, because forgiving did not mean forgetting.

After coming back to her senses, Xiao Xun'er's pretty face flushed crimson, revealing a bashful expression.

"Creak!"

Xiao Meng's expression turned ugly. Ignoring Xiao Xun'er, he pushed open the door and entered.

"Third Brother, you still have not told me where you went last night! Why did you stand me up?" Seeing Xiao Meng about to close the door, Xiao Xun'er hurried forward and demanded.

"None of your damn business!" Xiao Meng slammed the door shut. After being so severely humiliated, did she expect him to treat her nicely? Was that possible?

And he would definitely make a heavy note of this in his little notebook.

Xiao Xun'er got a faceful of dust from the doorframe, and the flames of anger in her heart immediately reignited. She pounded on the door, but Xiao Meng simply refused to open it.

"Xiao Meng, just you wait! I will deal with you later!" Xiao Xun'er angrily left behind a threat before storming away in a huff.

"You actually called me by my full name. You insolent little brat, that is another mark against you."

Xiao Meng stormed down to the basement, took out his ledger, and began scribbling with wild, flowing strokes.

If the system had not given him that damned mission to keep a low profile for eight years, he truly wanted to hang Xiao Xun'er up and beat her.

After recording the debt, Xiao Meng discovered that he seemed to have nothing to do.

The direct descendants of the Xiao Clan were not assigned any duties aside from cultivation, and Xiao Meng was no exception. Having just finished cultivating, he had nothing to do, and the system was not issuing any missions either.

He felt bored staying in the basement, but he did not want to wander outside and risk being humiliated.

More importantly, he feared that he might lose control and hit someone. Failing the mission and losing his fishing opportunity would be a minor matter; the system's punishment was what truly terrified him.

Over the past eight years, he had mostly kept to himself. Otherwise, that thick ledger would already have filled two or three volumes. But more likely, he would have been struck by lightning until he no longer looked human.

He had challenged the system's limits in all sorts of ways before, but every attempt had ended in misery.

As for whether the system would kill him, he believed it absolutely would not. After all, it could not find another host as handsome as him in the entire universe.

With nothing else to do, Xiao Meng simply calmed down and began comprehending the Eternal Undying Art.

"Xiao Meng! Xiao Meng! Time to eat!" At noon, it was unexpectedly Xiao Xun'er again, knocking on his door to call him to lunch.

"Got it! You go ahead. I will be there soon." Xiao Meng's face turned dark. This damned girl had called him Xiao Meng again. How hateful.

"Come out quickly! I will wait for you outside, and we will go together!" Xiao Xun'er roared without any regard for her image.

Xiao Meng: "..."

"I am not hungry. I am not eating!"

Xiao Meng's face sank as he gritted his teeth. "Damn it, I just will not go with you. What can you do about it?"

Faced with such a tough opponent, Xiao Xun'er drew in a cold breath, though she was even more furious than before.

"Xiao Meng, if you do not come out, I am breaking in!" Xiao Xun'er shouted.

"Go ahead and break in. One door costs ten gold coins," Xiao Meng replied calmly.

"Xiao Meng, you win," Xiao Xun'er said, suppressing the urge to kill him before angrily leaving.

After Xiao Xun'er left, Xiao Meng also left his room. People were made of iron, food was made of steel; skip one meal and you would feel hungry.

After turning through several corridors, Xiao Meng arrived at a dining hall. Only three people were eating at the large table.

Across from him sat a middle-aged man with a rather imposing bearing. This was Xiao Meng's cheap father, Xiao Zhan. At the lower seat sat a black-robed youth around his age, his blood brother Xiao Yan. Naturally, Xiao Xun'er was seated beside Xiao Yan.

"Didn't you say you were not eating?" At the sight of Xiao Meng, Xiao Xun'er was like a little female cat, trembling all over with anger as she glared at him.

Xiao Meng wore an innocent expression. "When did I say I was not eating? Did anyone just call me to eat?"

"Smack!"

Xiao Meng did not care how furious Xiao Xun'er was. He strode forward, slapped Xiao Yan, and said sternly, "Fourth Brother, move. Is this a seat you can take? Are you trying to rebel, or do you think your Third Brother is already dead? You do not understand the rules at all."

Xiao Yan: "..."

Xiao Xun'er glared at him with eyes that seemed ready to spit fire, like a ferocious beast preparing to devour someone.

"Third, why are you bullying Little Yan again?" Xiao Zhan asked, shooting him a glare.

Xiao Meng immediately retorted, "Father, could your heart be any more biased? He is disrespectful and has no sense of propriety. He stole my seat first, and I am merely disciplining him on your behalf. Yet somehow it becomes my fault? What kind of biased father are you?" Yet inwardly, he cursed, Damn it, he stole the woman I love, and you will not even let me hit him a few times to vent my anger? Was he screwed by a dog in his previous life or something?

"Fine, fine, fine! Third Brother, I will give it to you. Is that enough?" Xiao Yan was truly fed up with this guy and hurriedly carried his bowl away.

Xiao Zhan's face twitched, and he nearly failed to resist slapping this rebellious son flying.

"Where did you go last night?" Xiao Zhan asked after taking a deep breath.

Xiao Meng answered without hesitation, "I was cultivating diligently at the back mountain all night."

Xiao Meng emphasized the word "diligently" slightly. What he said was the truth, so he did not feel guilty in the slightest.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xun'er nearly exploded on the spot. This fellow had not said that in the morning!

"Didn't you say you went to plant vegetables?" Xiao Xun'er forced down the anger in her heart and asked through trembling teeth.

Xiao Meng looked at her as though she were an idiot. "Little Sister Xun'er, has your brain rusted through? Would I, the dignified Third Young Master of the Xiao Clan, go plant vegetables? Besides, is our Xiao Clan so poor that we cannot afford vegetables? Do we need to grow them ourselves..."

The moment he finished speaking, he immediately stood up, pulled the soup pot in front of himself, and dumped all the dishes into it with a clatter. Ignoring Xiao Zhan and the others' stares, he lowered his head and began eating alone.

Damn it, every meal, they flaunt their affection right in front of me. Now that there are no dishes left, let's see how they flaunt it.

As Xiao Meng ate, he felt immensely clever.

Every time he saw Xiao Xun'er and Xiao Yan placing food into each other's bowls, he felt miserable and tormented.

"What a beast!"

Looking at the empty plates still spinning on the table, the three of them froze with their chopsticks suspended in midair, feeling utterly miserable.

"If you do not finish all that today, I will beat you to death!" Xiao Zhan roared.

"Heh heh!"

Xiao Meng looked disdainful. Once he activated his cultivation art, this amount of food would not even be enough to fill the gaps between his teeth.

Not long afterward, they saw the soup pot, cleaner than if a dog had licked it.

Xiao Zhan and the others' eyes nearly popped out of their sockets, their faces full of disbelief. Xiao Xun'er's mouth hung slightly open as she stood there dumbfounded, as though she had seen a ghost.

"Damn it, he is a bottomless pit!"

"Burp!"

Xiao Meng let out a satisfied belch, somehow pulled out a toothpick, leaned back against his chair, and picked his teeth in utter comfort.

"Why are you all looking at me with such admiration?" Xiao Meng asked carelessly.

"Get the hell out of here!" Xiao Zhan snapped irritably.

Xiao Meng rose neatly and left. He had enjoyed this meal very much.
