"Chu Liang is a retired soldier; he got injured while hunting in the mountains. Since he was the only one at home, he sent a telegram to ask his cousin's family to take care of him. The relatives scheduled to come are his cousin and cousin's wife."
Meng Xinian's thin lips pursed as he continued, "Chu Liang's cousin's wife is a child bride, only thirteen or fourteen years old."
At this point, he didn't continue but just looked at Chiang Xiao.
Chiang Xiao frowned, without thinking, she blurted out, "You want me to pretend to be Chu Liang's cousin's wife?"
See, he hadn't misjudged her.
This young girl was clever and quick-witted, almost bewitching.
Her reaction far exceeded the intelligence and knowledge of a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl.
Just like the first time he saw her being calm and methodical in front of the villagers while reenacting the case.
No, even better than her performance back then.
