Chapter 1134: Chapter 1134
This would make Jiang Ming seem too ambitious, and Wang Xiao would become suspicious.
Wang Xiao also realized that something was wrong with his words. He said in a deep voice, “No, I’m not talking about that. Jiu Zhu, where did you go?”
In an instant, swords and crossbows were drawn, and the surrounding atmosphere instantly tensed up.
Wang Xiao and Zhang Xiaoni glared at Jiang Ming.
In their opinion, Jiu Zhu must have done something shameful.
Jiang Ming was stunned.
“Why are you interrogating me like I’m a criminal? I don’t have bad intentions. I don’t care about anything in the Red Organization, so it’s best if you don’t ask me about it.’
Hearing this, Wang Xiao only felt that it was ridiculous. He snorted coldly and said, “Who knows what you are thinking? Don’t think that I don’t know your personality. People like you don’t look like much.”
Toward the end, his tone had already become aggressive.
He was really anxious. The Red Organization was a secret. If even a small detail was leaked, the entire organization would be in danger.
No matter what, he had to interrogate them. Even if Jiang Ming and the other two had accidentally intruded into a certain place, he had to interrogate them.
Sikong Wuyuan could not help but be speechless. “How can you say that? I thought we were friends.”
He tried to persuade him with reason, but Wang Xiao did not appreciate it at all. He even blamed everything on Jiang Ming.
“Jiu Zhu, if you had not run around, how could this have happened? Besides, didn’t you run around for no reason? Who would believe that? Quickly tell me everything you saw.”
Seeing this, Jiang Ming did not intend to change the topic with Wang Xiao.
He could tell that no matter how much he talked, Wang Xiao would change the topic. He might as well say something else.
Thinking of this, he quickly said, “l just entered a garden. There were all kinds of flowers and plants around. I looked around for a while and then found you.”
“Garden?”
Wang Xiao thought for a moment.
There was a flower field near where he was just now.
He could not help but feel nervous.
“Then, did you see me? I was looking at the flowers over there. Why didn’t you say hello to me?”
He said the last part on purpose.
Jiang Ming looked puzzled.
“l didn’t see you at all. Were you really looking at the flowers?”
Yuan Hehe chimed in. “Jiu Zhu is telling the truth. But why do I feel like you are lying?”
Seeing that he had been seen through, Wang Xiao smiled and said, “It was a precaution, okay? But since you didn’t see me, I understand. Let’s go to the banquet first. Some guests should have arrived already.”
He turned his head and acted as if he had let the matter pass, but Zhang
Xiaoni was still persistent.
“But just now, Sikong Wuyuan and Yuan Hehe were obviously trying to buy time for Jiu Zhu. If Jiu Zhu was really lost, why did they still want to buy time? Shouldn’t they have hurried up and looked for him? Is the friendship between the three of you so superficial? I don’t believe it.”
“What?” Sikong Wuyuan could not help but look at Yuan Hehe. “How were we stalling for time? My stomach hurt a lot at that time. What if something happened during the search for Jiu Zhu? I can’t possibly become a burden to Jiu Zhu, can I?”
Yuan Hehe crossed his arms and said seriously, “That’s right. Zhang Xiaoni, can you not judge people so harshly? You make it sound like the three of us will fly apart when disaster strikes. We’re not that kind of people.”
“What if something happened to your partner?” Jiang Ming looked at Zhang Xiaoni. “If you were seriously injured, would you save yourself first or go find your partner? If you die and your companion hasn’t been found, he will also be in danger.”
Wang Xiao thought so, so he reprimanded Zhang Xiaoni.
“Zhang Xiaoni, don’t think too much about it. What Jiang Ming and the other two said makes sense. Let’s not doubt them. If this continues, our relationship will become tense. Since I’ve invited Jiu Zhu and the other two over, we should treat them kindly and act as hosts.”
Zhang Xiaoni suppressed his doubts when he heard Wang Xiao’s words. He nodded and said, “Boss, you’re right. This is my fault. Jiu Zhu, please don’t be angry. I was too paranoid.”
“Forget it. This is just a small matter. Don’t hurt the peace between us.” Jiang Ming pretended to be magnanimous. “Zhang Xiaoni, don’t be afraid that we’ll continue to pursue this matter. This matter is over.”
“Thank you, Jiang Ming. You’re very magnanimous. I’m really grateful.” Zhang Xiaoni pretended to be touched, but his eyes were cold.
He did not believe Jiang Mings words at all. They must have another plan.
He had to find out what it was and not give them the chance to hurt the Red Organization and his boss.
Wang Xiao was also skeptical, but he suppressed his feelings. Instead, he smiled at Jiang Ming and the other two, “Let’s not delay. Let’s go quickly. We don’t want to be late.’
“Then I’ll protect you from the rear,” Zhang Xiaoni chimed in. “The people attending the banquet shouldn’t just be from the Red Organization, right?”
Wang Xiao nodded and looked at Jiang Ming and the other two. “You might not be used to it, but they are all curious about you. I will help you get to know them.”
Sikong Wuyuan spread his hands.
“There’s no need for that. We’re not so socially awkward that we don’t even know how to make small talk.”
At this moment, a cold aura suddenly appeared around them. A sharp blade appeared in their line of sight and shot straight into a tree not far away from them.
Wang Xiao frowned.
“Young Master, what are you doing? Now is not the time to joke around.”
The young master immediately appeared in front of Jiang Ming and the other two.
He was wearing a jade crown and robe, and his eyes were filled with curiosity as he sized up Jiang Ming.
“This the first time I’ve seen the boss of the Red Organization so concerned about a few people. That’s why I came to take a look.” He smiled faintly.
“Hello, I’m Jiu Zhu.” Jiang Ming pretended to smile.
He introduced Sikong Wuyuan and Yuan Hehe.
The young master placed his hands behind his back and smiled.
“You can just call me Young Master. There’s nothing good about my actual name.”
“Come on, you scared us just now.” Wang Xiaolian pretended to be angry. “You have to apologize to us. Otherwise, 1 won’t let you go to the banquet..”
