Chapter 382: Popularity
Translator: Lonelytree
Jiang Zhennan replied, “I’m Miss Yue ‘Er’s guard!”
He had wanted to say that they were friends, but that might damage her reputation. However, being her guard would not.
A guard’s job was to ensure the safety of the master’s family.
When Liu Jiaying heard this, she nodded. However, she looked at Jiang Zhennan for a moment and frowned slightly. “Why do I find your figure so familiar?”
Lin Yuelan smiled and said, “This guy? He’s the masked uncle. But he has now taken off his mask. ”
“Ah, masked uncle? Didn’t he say he wore a mask because he’s ugly?” Liu Jiaying was surprised. “He doesn’t look ugly at all. He looks very handsome. Why was he wearing a mask then?” Jiang Zhennan did say that, but he didn’t anticipate someone would ask him so directly. He was ugly in the past because he had an ugly scar, but the scar had already been removed.
Jiang Zhennan’s forehead was filled with black lines. ‘This girl is so direct. Is it really okay going around telling them that they’re ugly?’
Ugliness was one of the reasons he wore a mask in the past, but he didn’t need someone to point that out.
Jiang Zhennan said, “I had a scar on my face back then. I was afraid that it would scare others, so I wore a mask.”
Liu Jiaying believed him. “Oh, I see.”
Then, she sized up Jiang Zhennan. He was tall and strong, and he exuded a man’s strength, which made people feel very safe.
She suddenly nodded seriously. “Yes, not bad. You look very reliable. I am relieved if you are protecting Yuelan.” ]
The corner of Jiang Zhennan’s mouth twitched. He finally understood why Lin Yuelan, who kept a certain distance from everyone, would be so good friends with this little girl.
Liu Jiuying was very straightforward. She treated her friends with all of her kindness. Outsiders would think she was gullible.
At this moment, Liu Qi had just stepped into the private room. He heard his sister’s words, and his footsteps faltered. Then, he walked in as if nothing had happened. He shook his head and said with a smile, “You’re just a child. What nonsense are you talking about? with miss Lin’s skills, you shouldn’t be worried.”
Immediately, Liu Qi cupped his fists at Jiang Zhennan and said apologetically, “Young master, my younger sister is still young, and she speaks without thinking. Please forgive her if she has said anything inappropriate!”
However, Jiang Zhennan did not answer Liu Qi. Instead, he nodded seriously at Liu Jiaying and said, “Miss Liu, don’t worry. I will definitely protect miss Yue ‘Er’s safety.”
Liu Jiaying nodded and said, “Okay, I’ll keep an eye on you.”
Then, the four of them sat down.
Liu Qi looked at Lin Yuelan and said with a smile, “Miss Lin, long time no see! What good stuff did you bring today?” His eyes glanced at the few jars on the table. He sniffed and seemed to smell the rich smell of wine.
Lin Yuelan didn’t beat around the bush with Liu Qi and his sister. She took out one of the jars and handed it to Liu Qi. “This is fruit wine that I’ve brewed. I’ve brought it here for you to try.”
Liu Qi and Liu Jiaying’s eyes lit up. Lin Yuelan always surprised them with wonderful things. They couldn’t wait to open the seal and try the wine.
When they saw the red liquid in the cup, the brother and sister were shocked.
This thing looked too much like blood. It was a little scary.
However, the siblings could not help but take a deep breath when they smelled the fragrance coming from it. “It smells so good!” They exclaimed. The fragrance had a rich sweet smell. It was very pleasant.
Liu Jiaying took a sip. “The wine has a sweet and mellow taste with a hint of sourness. It’s very delicious!” After that, she lowered his head and took another sip.
She surprised Lin Yuelan.
She didn’t expect Liu Jiaying’s taste buds to be so sensitive.
The sourness in the wine was very slight. Most people could only taste the sweetness of the wine.
It seemed like Liu Jiaying had the talent in wine-tasting.
